On Friday, the benchmark indices made a gap-down opening and settled in red for the third consecutive session. The weak global cues and FIIs being heavy sellers affected the market mood on the last day of the week. Sensex settled 1,020.80 points or 1.73 per cent lower at 58,098.92 while Nifty plunged 302.50 points or 1.72 per cent to be at 17,327.30.
