According to market experts, "the domestic market experienced a downturn, influenced by a mixed global trend and partial profit-booking".
"Although declining crude prices are beneficial for the domestic economy, they signal weakening global demand. Additionally, India's CPI surged driven by food prices, which will delay expected rate cuts," they noted.
