Indian equity markets extended their losses for a second consecutive session Tuesday, with both major indices opening in the red and declining further within minutes of the opening bell.
The BSE Sensex, India's flagship 30-stock index, dropped more than 600 points at the opening, reflecting continued investor concern following Monday's significant market decline. The broader NSE Nifty also opened lower, mirroring the weakness seen across the benchmark indices.
The market volatility marks a continuation of the bearish sentiment that gripped equities on Monday. Early trading saw the momentum persist, with shares slipping further into negative territory shortly after the market opened for the day.
The sharp losses across both indices suggest sustained selling pressure in Indian equities. Traders and investors remain cautious as market conditions continue to deteriorate from the previous session, with limited signs of stabilization in early Tuesday trading.
