Sensex falls 1%, hits 8-month low
The New Indian Express Bengaluru
|February 25, 2025
DOMESTIC equity market witnessed a sharp decline on Monday, with benchmark indices—the BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty50—plunging to their lowest levels in eight months.
The sell-off was driven by weakening global cues and persistent foreign institutional investor (FII) selling amid concerns over US trade policies.
The 30-share Sensex tumbled by 856.65 points, or 1.14%, to close at 74,454.41, while the Nifty50 dropped by 242.55 points, or 1.06%, to settle at 22,553.35.
The benchmarks have fallen below this level in the first week of June 2024 when general election results were declared. So far in 2025, both indices have declined by over 5%.
Investors lost about ₹4.4 lakh crore on Monday as the m-cap of all BSE listed firms came down to ₹398.53 lakh crore.
