MUMBAI (Reuters) - The BSE Sensex fell nearly 2 percent on Monday, its biggest one-day percentage loss in nearly two months, on China's stock market rout and concerns that possible stricter norms for participatory notes back home may hit foreign investments.

The BSE Sensex ended down 1.96 percent, marking its biggest single-day fall since June 2.

The Nifty closed 1.88 percent lower, its biggest percentage fall in a day since June 11.
