It was a third consecutive day of equity market closing in red this week after a stellar rally seen earlier.
Key Benchmark indices ended marginally lower on Thursday after hitting 3-year intra-day highs after index heavyweights pared most of the early gains and selling pressure in IT majors set in.
The 30-share Sensex ended at 20,725 down by 42 points after topping the 21,000 mark while the 50-share Nifty ended down 14 points at 6,164 after hitting a high of 6,252 during the day.
