Indian equities ended Friday’s session on a muted note, with both benchmarks slipping in late trade after a largely rangebound day. The Nifty 50 closed near the 24,400 mark, while the Sensex fell below the key 80,000 level as investor sentiment remained cautious amid global macroeconomic concerns and uncertainty over U.S. tariffs.
After opening on a weaker footing, indices managed to trade in positive territory for most of the session. However, late selling pressure dragged them back near the day’s lows. By close, the Sensex dropped 270.92 points (0.34%) to 79,809.65, while the Nifty lost 74.05 points (0.30%) to settle at 24,426.85.
