Indian markets closed in negative territory on December 2, with the Nifty slipping below the 26,050 level. Sentiment remained subdued throughout the session as persistent profit booking, a softening rupee, and continued FII withdrawals weighed on the broader mood.
Market pressure intensified following the NSE’s latest sectoral index reshuffle under SEBI norms, which particularly affected major banking stocks. The announcement contributed to an already cautious environment.
Expectations of an RBI rate cut have reduced after the release of strong GDP data. In addition, ongoing United States–India trade negotiations continued to influence investor confidence, leaving the near term marked by uncertainty and limited directional clarity.
By the end of the session, benchmark indices recorded notable declines.
The Sensex fell 503.63 points, or 0.59 percent, closing at 85,138.27.
The Nifty declined 143.55 points, or 0.55 percent, to settle at 26,032.20.

Broader markets also reflected the cautious sentiment, with the Midcap index down 0.22 percent and the Small cap index lower by 0.55 percent.
Among individual stocks, Asian Paint emerged as one of the notable gainers of the day, rising 3.15 percent. In contrast, Indigo saw the sharpest drop, falling 1.62 percent.
