The sharp rally in Indian equities lost momentum on Friday, with the Sensex and Nifty slipping deep into the red and snapping a five-session winning streak, as heavy selling in IT stocks, weak global cues, and other headwinds weighed on investor sentiment.
Sensex tumbled 607 points to close at 76,802.90, while Nifty 50 declined 155 points to end the session at 24,013.10. This came after the benchmark indices jumped up to 5% over the past five sessions.
