The BSE Sensex fell 335 points, or 0.4%, to 85,307 in Tuesday morning trade, extending losses from the previous session as traders booked profits after the index briefly approached record territory. The broader market tracked an overnight decline on Wall Street, while the Nifty 50 also slipped 0.4%. Small-caps and mid-caps fell 0.3% and 0.1%, respectively. Ongoing foreign capital outflows also pressured the market. However, robust GDP growth, expectations of RBI rate cuts at Friday’s policy meeting, and hopes for Fed easing next week, with over 85% of bets pointing to a 25-basis-point reduction, helped limit the downturn. Banking, financial services, and auto stocks led the declines, with the biggest laggards including ICICI Bank (-1.2%), HDFC Bank (-1.1%), Tata Motors (-1.0%), Bajaj Finserv (-0.8%), and Axis Bank (-0.8%).
