Sensex, Nifty End Lower as Winning Streak Snaps; Bank, Realty Stocks Buck the Trend
Markets Close Marginally Lower
The BSE Sensex ended the session down 48.78 points, or 0.07 per cent, at 72,480.29, while the NSE Nifty50 fell 95.75 points, or 0.42 per cent, to close at 22,620.45 on 30 September 2026.
Banking and Realty Shares Outperform
Even as the broader indices slipped, bank and realty stocks bucked the trend and ended the day with gains, helping cushion the overall fall in the market.
Two IPOs Open for Subscription
Trading activity was also driven by two initial public offerings that opened for subscription during the day, adding to overall market volumes.
What It Means for Investors
Analysts attributed the choppy trade to global cues, including crude oil price movements, ahead of key domestic and international economic data due later this week. Retail investors are advised to avoid reacting to single-day swings and focus on their long-term investment goals.
