|August 27, 2025
Indian equities recorded their steepest fall in three months on Tuesday after the US government confirmed the imposition of additional tariffs of up to 25 per cent on Indian exports, effective Wednesday.
The Sensex closed at 80,787, down 849 points or 1.04 per cent, while the Nifty ended at 24,712, slipping 256 points or 1.02 per cent. This was the sharpest single-day decline for both indices since May 20. The total market capitalisation of BSE-listed firms shrank by ₹5.6 trillion to ₹449 trillion.
The rupee also extended its losing streak for a fifth straight session, closing at 87.69 against the US dollar. Government bonds recovered all intraday losses by the close, on the back of short covering, dealers said.
