It was a tumultuous day for Indian investors. The BSE Sensex nosedived by an alarming 1,092 points. Meanwhile, the Nifty 50 slipped below the crucial mark of 23,600.
The market’s sharp decline is raising eyebrows. Traders are now questioning what triggered this sudden drop. Was it global cues or domestic concerns?

The steep fall caught most off guard. Analysts had hinted at volatility but not this magnitude. Investors watched nervously as their portfolios took a hit.
