The NSE Nifty dropped 88.75 points or 0.51 per cent to 17,303.95 points.
"The negative takeaway was that Nifty witnessed drubbing despite Adani Group stocks bouncing sharply higher in today's trade," Prashanth Tapse - Research Analyst, Senior VP (Research) at Mehta Equities Ltd, said.
Nine out of the ten listed firms of the Adani Group closed in the red on Monday, with the flagship Adani Enterprises tumbling over 9 per cent.
Majority of the Adani Group firms had ended lower on Friday as well.
Adani Group stocks have taken a beating on the exchanges after US-based short seller Hindenburg Research last month made a litany of allegations, including fraudulent transactions and share-price manipulation, against it.
The group has dismissed the charges as lies, saying it complies with all laws and disclosure requirements.
