Mumbai, Nov 18 (IBNS): The Indian market ended Friday on a gloomy note, with BSE Sensex down 77.38 points at 26150.24 and Nifty down 5.85 points at 8074.10.

While the market continued to reel under the effects of the central government's demonetisation policy, of banning currency notes of rupees 500 and rupees 1000 denomination, the mood turned cautious with US Fed chief Janet Yellen indicating that an interest rate hike is imminent, according to media reports.

Some of the key stocks that gained on Friday were NTPC, Sun Pharma, Bharti, Hero MotoCorp and M&M while Tata Steel, ITC, GAIL, Asian Paints and HDFC Bank declined.
