What happened

Well supportedReported by 5 independent outlets

Indian equity markets experienced significant volatility, with the Sensex and Nifty 50 trading in negative territory in August 2026, partly due to firm crude oil prices and ongoing geopolitical tensions. Earlier in July 2026, a sharp sell-off occurred after US President Donald Trump declared the interim agreement with Iran was over, causing Brent crude to jump 6.18 per cent. On June 29, 2026, IT and auto stocks were already showing pressure, with Kotak Mahindra Bank and Mahindra & Mahindra among the top losers.
