TOKYO: Tokyo stocks fell 1.05 percent on Tuesday as profit-taking erased early gains on the last day of the Japanese financial year, but the Nikkei index still booked a 10 percent gain over the quarter.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 — which climbed 0.93 percent in early trade — lost 204.41 points to finish at 19,206.99, while the broader Topix index of all first-section shares fell 0.94 percent, or 14.66 points, to 1,543.11.
