Mumbai, Jul 29: Tracking a weak global trend and ahead of RBI's quarterly monetary policy review on Tuesday, July 29, the Bombay Stock Exchange benchmark Sensex plunged by 321 points in early trade.

The 30-share index, which had gained 74 points yesterday, tumbled by 321.20 points to 14,027.91 points on all-round selling by funds as well as retail investors. Similarly, the wide-based National Stock Exchange index Nifty dipped by 88.90 points to 4,243.45 following a steep fall in banking stocks led by ICICI and HDFC Bank.
