The Indian benchmark indices crashed and wiped out all previous two days’ gains to fall below 17,400 on the Nifty50, as hitting forty-year high by US inflation and rising oil prices weighed on the Dalal Street on Friday, February 11. All sectoral indices were under pressure.
The BSE Sensex plunged 773 points or 1.31 per cent to 58,153, while the Nifty50 declined 231 points or 1.31 per cent to 17,375 and formed bearish candle on the daily charts. As long as the Nifty holds 17,300 mark the positive bias is expected to continue, whereas 17,000 could be crucial support in coming days, experts feel.
Nifty futures on the Singapore Exchange traded 216.5 points, or 1.25 per cent, lower at 17,137.50, signaling that Dalal Street was headed for a positive start on Thursday.
