India’s benchmark indices faced a severe downturn as the Sensex dropped 610 points (0.71%) to close at 85,102.69, erasing ₹7 lakh crore in market value. The decline was driven by a weak rupee and heavy foreign selling amid rising global uncertainties.
• The Nifty 50 fell 226 points to 25,960.55.
• Mid- and small-cap indices also declined nearly 2%.
Analysts foresee continued volatility as market sentiment remains pressured by external factors.
