ndian equity markets closed sharply lower for the second consecutive session on Tuesday, as benchmark indices lost ground amid persistent selling pressure. The decline was driven by foreign outflows, a weak rupee, and cautious global cues.
The BSE Sensex plunged about 533 points, closing around the mid‑80,000 level, while the Nifty 50 slipped over 160 points, ending below the key support level of 25,900. Markets were broadly weak, with most sectors trading in the red.
Banking, IT, and metal stocks led the decline, reflecting profit booking and risk‑off sentiment. Mid-cap and small-cap indices also underperformed, indicating broader market pressure.
Analysts pointed out that persistent foreign portfolio investor (FPI) selling and a depreciating rupee acted as major headwinds for investor sentiment, while mixed global economic signals kept participants cautious.
In the broader market, defensive stocks saw mixed performances. Some telecom and consumer names held up better, even as heavyweight financials weighed on overall returns.
The decline marked another volatile session in December, with key psychological levels being tested. Investors are now focusing on upcoming economic data and global developments, which are expected to influence market direction in the near term.
