REUTERS - Indian shares fell on Friday, tracking weak regional equity markets, as investors booked profits following reports of a nuclear test in North Korea and amid uncertainty over the European Central Bank's future policy steps. The benchmark BSE Sensex ended 0.85 percent lower at 28,797.25, but posted a weekly gain of 0.93 percent. The broader NSE Nifty closed down 0.96 percent at 8,866.70, but recorded a gain of 1.62 percent for the week. (Reporting by Aastha Agnihotri in Bengaluru; Editing by Sunil Nair)
