Closing Bell: India’s Benchmark Indices Pause After Volatile Session — 24 November 2025
Indian equity markets ended Monday’s session on a cautious note as profit-booking, muted global signals, and weakness in banking & financial stocks dragged benchmark indices into the red. Despite a positive start and early attempts to extend last week’s rally, markets lacked follow-through buying, resulting in a mild corrective close.
The broader sentiment leaned risk-off as traders awaited the upcoming U.S. Fed commentary, crude oil volatility, and domestic macro numbers due later this week.
