Sensex settles 271 pts lower, Nifty below 25,000
Synopsis
Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates: Indian benchmark indices traded on a flat note Monday, with gains in financial stocks balancing out losses in the IT sector, as overall sentiment remained subdued after Moody’s downgraded the U.S. government’s credit rating on Friday.
Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates: In the 30-stock Sensex pack, Infosys, Eternal, TCS, IndusInd Bank, HCL Technologies, and Reliance Industries were among the top losers, declining between 0.3% and 1.1%.
IT stocks declined after Moody’s downgraded the U.S. government’s credit rating from AAA to AA1, citing high debt levels and interest costs that are “significantly higher than similarly rated sovereigns.” Given that IT companies generate a substantial share of their revenue from the U.S., the Nifty IT index fell by 0.8%.
