Broader Market Also Under Pressure
The railway sector decline was not isolated. India’s benchmark equity indices opened sharply lower on Friday, with the BSE Sensex plunging over 829 points to 74,444 in early trade, while the Nifty 50 slipped below the 23,100 mark. Markets resumed after Thursday’s closure for the Ram Navami holiday, opening with a gap-down.
Analysts noted that Indian equity markets were likely to stay volatile on March 27, even after a strong rally in the previous session, as global cues and geopolitical developments continue to drive investor sentiment
