FIIs net sellers of Indian equities worth Rs 2382 crore, while DIIs net buyers at Rs 1077 crore

The Indian equity market extended its losses after opening in negative territory, weighed down by a sharp depreciation in the Indian rupee, which breached the 91 mark, and persistent outflows from foreign investors. Ongoing global uncertainties further dampened sentiment, keeping market participants cautious. At the close, the Sensex declined by 533.50 points (0.63%) to settle at 84,679.86, while the Nifty slipped 167.20 points (0.64%) to end at 25,860.10.

Bajaj Broking's analysis further reveals that sectoral breadth remained weak, with selling pressure witnessed across most sectors. The major drag on the market came from Nifty Realty, Private Banks, IT, and Metals, all of which traded under notable pressure. In contrast, Nifty Media and Consumer Durables were the only sectors to trade marginally in the green, showing relative resilience amid broad-based weakness. Broader markets also remained under pressure, with Nifty Midcap 100 declining by 0.83% and Nifty Small cap 100 slipping 0.92%, reflecting broad-based selling across the mid and small-cap segments
