New Delhi, Sept. 22 -- Indian equities ended lower on Friday, snapping a three-day winning streak as profit-booking at higher levels weighed on FMCG, IT, and banking stocks. The Nifty 50 slipped 96.55 points, or 0.38%, to close at 25,327.05, while the Sensex fell 387.73 points, or 0.47%, to 82,626.23.

The Nifty Bank also lost 268.60 points, or 0.48%, to 55,458.85. Despite mid-session buying that pared early losses, selling pressure resurfaced in the latter half, leaving the broader market flat with midcap and smallcap indices little changed.
