(Reuters) - Indian shares ended lower on Tuesday, as software services exporters retreated after Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS.L) cancelled a contract with Infosys (INFY.NS) and as world stocks moved away from one-year peaks amid global concerns.

The benchmark BSE Sensex (.BSESN) fell 0.31 percent to 28,064.61, after declining as much as 0.75 percent earlier in the session.

The broader NSE Nifty (.NSEI) dropped 0.34 percent to 8,642.55, snapping two sessions of gains.

Infosys closed 1 percent lower after falling as much as 3.25 percent to its lowest since Dec. 9, 2015.
