NEW DELHI: Over 170 stocks including AksharChem (India), Apollo Micro Systems, Bank of Baroda and Bank of India hit 52-week lows on BSE during Tuesday's trade.

BEL, Century Textile and Industries, Force Motors, Motherson Sumi Systems, Orissa Minerals Development Company and Tata Motors also featured among stocks that touched 52-week lows on BSE.

Equity markets were subdued, barring intermittent gains, tracking weakness in global stocks. Worries around a trade war between the US and world's other economies continued keeping the sentiment down.

The BSE Sensex was 58 points up at 35,528, while the NSE Nifty50 index was 16 points up at 10,778.

In the Sensex index, 20 stocks were in the green and 11 were in the red.

Among the sectoral indices on BSE, energy, healthcare, auto, industrials and power were experiencing the heat of selling.

Tata Motors, Reliance Industries, ICICI Bank and Hero MotoCorp were among the top drags on the Sensex index.

Coal India, however, rose over 3 per cent, leading the pack of Sensex gainers.
