Indian equity benchmarks, Sensex and Nifty, continued their decline for a sixth consecutive day, with the Sensex dropping over 300 points and Nifty falling below 25,600. This broad-based downturn reflects growing investor caution due to domestic concerns, including uncertainty around a US-India trade deal and geopolitical risks in Venezuela and Iran. Experts note increased market volatility and suggest a selective, range-bound approach for traders, with future market direction influenced by Q3 earnings and IT sector performance.
