Benchmark equity indices Sensex and Nifty fell sharply in early trade on 30 Jan 2026, with the Sensex down 619.06 points to 81,947.31 and the Nifty dropping 171.35 points to 25,247.55. IT stocks led the decline amid fresh foreign fund outflows and global market weakness.

Key laggards included Tata Steel, HCL Tech, Infosys, and TCS. Caution prevails as investors await the Budget presentation on 1 Feb, while geopolitical tensions and rising crude prices add to market uncertainties.
