Conclusion

Despite a sharp decline in benchmark indices and broad-based weakness across sectors, select stocks like M&M and Maruti provided some resilience. However, the overall market sentiment remained cautious amid global uncertainty and FII pressure. As investors navigate volatility, upcoming macroeconomic cues and global developments will likely play a key role in shaping short-term market direction.
