Escalating conflict in West Asia has sent shockwaves through Indian financial markets, triggering a significant sell-off. The rupee plummeted, breaching the 92 mark against the dollar, closing at 92.15.
- Sensex: Dropped below 80,000, a 3.80% fall since last Friday.
- Nifty: Down 3.99% since last Friday.
- FII Outflow: Exceeded $2.12 billion in the last three sessions.
