Indian equity benchmarks faced significant declines, with BSE Sensex dropping over 800 points and Nifty50 falling below 22,600, marking the fifth consecutive session of losses. This downturn is attributed to global market weakness, declining US consumer confidence, and ongoing foreign investment outflows, as investors remain cautious ahead of key inflation data and Federal Reserve discussions.
