MUMBAI: The benchmark BSE Sensex fell over 302 points in early trade on Thursday to slip below the 27,000 level as stocks of banking, realty, healthcare, IT, metal and auto companies succumbed to profit booking by speculators, giving up most of yesterday's gains amid a mixed trend at other Asian bourses.

Brokers said profit-booking by participants in stocks that recorded handsome gains in Wednesday's trade and a mixed trend at other Asian markets tracking overnight losses at US markets following a disappointing retail sales report dampened sentiment.
Among other Asian markets, Hong Kong Hang Seng was up 0.19 per cent while Japan's Nikkie shed 0.55 per cent in early trade on Thursday.
The US Dow Jones Industrial Average ended 0.04 per cent lower in Wednesday's trade.
