MUMBAI: Investors on Dalal Street have lost over $300 billion (Rs 11,85,285 crore) in the last six days with more than half of the loss coming from Monday's fall of the benchmark index Sensex - its biggest ever.

The 30-share index Sensex today witnessed a fall of 1,400 points, tumbling below the 18,000-point to close at 17,605.35. The huge drop in the index was led by blue chip heavyweights - Reliance Energy, ACC, Bajaj Auto, DLF and Reliance Industries.

The Sensex has lost 3,222.1 points in last six trading sessions, while investors' wealth - measured in terms of cumulative market capitalisation of all the listed companies - has declined by Rs 11,85,285.46 crore.

The total market capitalisation stood at Rs 59,53,525.87 crore at the end of today's trading against Rs 71,38,810 crore before bourses began business last week on January 14.
