Indian Stock Market Today: Latest Updates and Analysis
The NSE Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex declined for a second session as Grasim Industries Ltd. and Hindalco Industries Ltd. shares weighed. The indices closed 0.34% and 0.18% down, respectively at close.
Selling pressure was broad-based, as both the Nifty Midcap and Smallcap indices also closed in the red. Across the board, all sectoral indices ended lower, barring the Nifty IT index. This resilience in the IT sector helped it snap a four-day losing streak, driven by gains in heavyweights like Wipro and TCS.
