e than a week, as high inflation stoked macroeconomic problems in the world's second-fastest growing major economy.
Also, caution prevailed as the central bank is seen raising key short-term interest rates at a policy review early next week.

Volatility was high as traders rolled over positions in the futures and options (F&O) segment, following expiry of the near month April 2011 contracts. Realty, capital goods, banking, oil & gas, metal and power sectors were the major losers of the week.

The 30 share Sensex declined by 466.27 points, or 2.38% to end the week at 19,135.96, its lowest closing level since April 19. The S&P CNX Nifty fell by 135.20 points, or 2.30% to finish at 5,749.50 on the NSE.

However, India's largest oil exploration firm by market capitalisation, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), gained 1.55%. Food inflation inched up marginally to 8.76% for the week ended April 16, on the back of rising prices of fruits, protein-based items and onions.
