The broader Nifty index slid 95.15 points or 0.90 percent to 10,435.55 after climbing as much as 28.65 percent in 2017.
Reliance Naval and Engineering, formerly Reliance Defense and Engineering Limited, soared 38.7 percent on high volumes.
Golden Tobacco rallied 5 percent after Plus Corporate Ventures, its director Pramod Jain and J.P. Financial Services made an open offer to buy 25 percent stake in the company.
