The Indian stock market experienced a significant downturn, with the Sensex and Nifty 50 falling for the sixth consecutive session. The Sensex dropped over 2,700 points and the Nifty 50 shed over 3% in six days, eroding investor wealth by more than ₹16 lakh crore. This decline is attributed to rising geopolitical risks, concerns over US tariffs, and consistent foreign capital outflows.
