Domestic equity benchmarks suffered minor losses on Monday, continuing to fall for the seventh session in a row, amid selling pressure in stocks like ICICI Bank, Axis Bank and L&T, though gains in HDFC Bank and SBI lent some support. Both headline indices inched 0.1 per cent lower for the day. The latest fall added to the indices' fall of nearly 3.0 per cent each last week, as investors stared at the Trump 2.0 administration's moves to significantly hike in H-1B visa fees and to improve a 100 per cent duty on branded drugs.

Investors now await a key rate decision due this week and the onset of the domestic earnings season next week for cues.

The Sensex lost 61.5 points to end at 80,364.9 while the Nifty50 settled at 24,634.9, down 19.8 points from the previous close.
