Dalal Street Blues: Sensex falls 1,100 points, closes below 79,000 after 10 months
Indian stock markets experienced a significant downturn on Friday, with the Sensex plummeting nearly 1,100 points to close below 79,000 for the first time since April 2025. Deteriorating geopolitical tensions in West Asia and global market conditions, coupled with substantial foreign fund outflows, led the decline. Banks were particularly affected as investors adopted a risk-off approach.
