The Nifty hit a fresh 52-week low on Thursday as Indian equities came under broad
“The market is currently caught in a perfect storm: crude above $100, persistent FII selling, a hawkish RBI, elevated US yields, and a weakening rupee,” said Sandip Jha, Chief Product Officer, Godrej Wealth. He said the market was repricing the risk of a higher-for-longer interest rate and inflation environment, and advised investors to remain focused on long
The Nifty opened at 22,599.05 and fell through the session to an intraday low of 22,179.90, breaching its April 2, 2026 low of 22,182.55. The Sensex also remained under pressure, moving between 72,693.97 and 71,327.75, before closing near the day’s low. Nandish Shah, Deputy Vice-President, HDFC Securities, said the Nifty had corrected more than 10 per cent from its early-August swing high of 24,774, and was nearly 16 per cent below its all-time high of 26,373.
Selling was broad-based, with all sectoral indices ending lower. Metal, Realty, Media, Auto, Energy and FMCG stocks were among the major laggards, while IT showed relative resilience. The Nifty Midcap 100 fell 2.53 per cent and the Nifty Smallcap 100 declined 2.34 per cent, with the advances-declines ratio falling to 0.30, according to HDFC Securities.
