New Delhi. Local stock markets declined for the second consecutive trading session on Monday and the BSE Sensex lost nearly 300 points.

The National Stock Exchange’s Nifty also closed at 19,672.35 points, down 72.65 points, or 0.37 percent.

According to traders, the selling of foreign institutional investors (FPIs) and the rise in crude oil prices also affected the stock market.
