(Corrects headline to show Indian shares provisionally fell 0.2 percent, not 0.1 percent)

MUMBAI, Aug 12 (Reuters) - Indian shares pared losses of 2.5 percent and provisionally closed down 0.2 percent on Wednesday as a pullback in European stocks pushed investors to enter the market after it dropped more than 5 percent over the past week.

However, worries about poor monsoon rains and rich valuations weighed on sentiment.

The 30-share BSE index .BSESN provisionally ended down 30.97 points at 15,043.62, with 17 stocks declining, after falling to as low as 14,701.05 earlier.

The 50-share NSE index provisionally closed down 0.1 percent at 4,465.20. (Reporting by Pratish Narayanan; Editing by Himani Sarkar)
