Sensex, Nifty outlook: The Indian stock market witnessed a sharp correction in September, with both benchmark indices ending the month significantly lower.
The BSE Sensex fell around 4,320 points, or 5.6–5.8%, from nearly 76,800 on August 31 to 72,480.29 on September 30. Meanwhile, the NSE Nifty 50 declined by around 1,364–1,450 points, or 5.7–6.1%, from 24,080.40 at the end of August to approximately 22,630–22,716 by the end of September.
“The recent correction, which has pulled the Nifty toward the 22,200–22,500 zone and the Sensex near 71,400–72,400, reflects a combination of valuation reset and persistent global headwinds,” said Seema Srivastava, Senior Research Analyst at SMC Global Securities.
