Mumbai, Oct 31 (IBNS): The Indian stock markets remained closed on Monday but conducted business on Sunday as it was the first day of Samvat 2073, the Hindu calendar year, according to media sources.

However, the benchmark indices closed marginally lower on Sunday with Sensex down 11 points at 27,930.21 and Nifty down 12 points at 8,625.70.
