Market Snapshot
Benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty ended marginally lower in a volatile session, as gains in banking and auto stocks were offset by losses in IT shares.
Infosys was the biggest drag on Nifty 50, falling 3.7%, amid concerns over slowing US client spending, which weighed on software exporters.
The Nifty IT Index declined over 3%, hitting its lowest level since July 2024, and extending its year-to-date losses to 16%.
Asian markets mostly declined, as investors remained cautious over US President Trump’s trade policies and recession risks in the US.
Global market volatility persisted, driven by trade tensions and tariff barriers imposed by the US administration.
