Indian stocks fell for the fourth consecutive trading session Tuesday, after investors lowered their stock exposure ahead of the equity derivative contract expiration set for May 29 and new inflation data due out on Friday. Traders said rumors of a fuel-price hike also weighed on shares in the region.
