Sensex Drops, Airtel Soars, Nifty Below 23,550, Market LIVE Updates

Sensex Ends Lower After Early Gains, Nifty Below 23,550; Bharti Airtel Shines, PNB Housing Falls

The Indian stock market witnessed a reversal of fortunes today, as the Sensex and Nifty gave up early gains to close in the red.

Early Gains Erased

The BSE Sensex ended the day down 100 points, settling at a value lower than yesterday’s close. The broader Nifty 50 index also failed to hold onto its initial gains and closed below the 23,550 mark.

Individual Stock Performances

Despite the overall market weakness, Bharti Airtel emerged as a bright spot, surging over 7% and becoming the top gainer among Nifty stocks. On the other hand, PNB Housing took a hit, dropping more than 4% and registering the biggest loss among Nifty constituents.
