Indian equity benchmarks extended their losing streak on Thursday, with the sell-off largely driven by external headwinds as bond yields climbed to multi-year highs and crude oil prices remained elevated, stoking concerns over the economic outlook for 2026–27.
The Nifty 50 fell 198.50 points, or 0.88%, to close at 22,421.95, while the BSE Sensex declined 570.59 points, or 0.79%, to settle at 71,909.70.
