Local benchmark indices experienced a significant drop of over 2 percent, marking the most substantial single-day decline in a year and a half. The selling pressure was primarily sustained in the banking and financial sectors, fueled by investor disappointment in HDFC Bank’s third-quarter results. The Sensex concluded with a 2.23 percent loss, closing at 71,500.76 points, while the Nifty recorded a 2.09% decline, settling at 21,571.95. Foreign investors offloaded shares amounting to a net Rs 10,578.13 crore, whereas domestic institutions made net purchases totaling Rs 4,006.44 crore.

On the global front, Asian shares had a subdued start on Thursday, influenced by uncertainties in China’s economic outlook and revised expectations that the global easing cycle might not commence as early as initially anticipated.
