Sensex Today | Nifty 50 | Indian Stock Market Live Updates

Indian equity markets traded lower during intraday trade, with benchmark indices facing selling pressure from IT and metal stocks, while FMCG shares provided some support to the broader market.

Market Snapshot

• Sensex slipped over 350 points

• Nifty 50 traded near the 25,300 level

• Metal index declined sharply by 4%

• IT index fell nearly 1%

• Nifty Midcap index gained 0.3%

• Nifty Smallcap index slipped 0.3%

The mixed performance across segments reflects selective buying and sector rotation, with investors remaining cautious.

Most Active Stocks on NSE

Several stocks witnessed high trading activity during the session, including:

• Hind Copper

• Nippon Silver ETF

• Vedanta

• Nippon Gold BeES

• Hindustan Zinc

Heightened interest in metal and precious metal-linked stocks kept volumes elevated, despite overall weakness in the metal sector.

Sectoral Performance

• Metals: The worst-performing sector, down 4%, dragged by profit booking and global commodity concerns

• IT: Slipped 1%, tracking weak global technology cues

• FMCG: Emerged as a relative outperformer, offering defensive support to the indices

The divergence between defensive and cyclical sectors highlights a risk-averse market sentiment.

Broader Market Trend

While frontline indices traded in the red, the midcap index managed modest gains, indicating selective stock-specific buying. However, weakness in smallcaps suggests that broader risk appetite remains limited.

Market Outlook

The Nifty holding near the 25,300 mark is crucial for maintaining short-term stability. Continued volatility is expected as investors track global cues and sector-specific developments.

📌 Markets remain range-bound with pressure from metals and IT, while FMCG stocks offer stability.
