two Indian jets, fuelling fears of an escalating confrontation between the
nuclear-armed neighbours.

28,757.44.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index gained 0.42 percent, or 12.30
points, to 2,953.82 while the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks
on China’s second exchange, lost 0.57 percent, or 8.79 points, to 1,540.92.
