Market Snapshot
Domestic equities began the week on a subdued note as benchmark indices, Nifty 50 and Sensex, slipped in the final hour of Friday’s session (November 24).
Market sentiment remained weak across the board, with most sectoral indices ending in the red.
Nifty Realty led the decline, shedding over 2 percent amid broad-based selling pressure.
