Stock Market Crash, Market This Week: Domestic equity benchmarks took heavy losses in the four-session trading week from February 24 to February 28 with Mahashivaratri on Wednesday. The Nifty 50 lost 671.2 points, or 2.9 per cent, for the week while the Sensex gave up 2,113 points, or 2.8 per cent, amid a sell-off across sectors, with IT, energy and PSU banking stocks being the worst hit. Global trade-related back and forth kept investors on their toes while an official Indian GDP reading—the reaction to which is expected on Monday—did little to rescue investor sentiment.
Broad indices also bore the brunt of turmoil, reflected in weekly losses of 6.0 per cent and 5.1 per cent in the Nifty Smallcap 100 and Nifty Midcap 100 gauges respectively.
How Nifty 50 stocks fared in the February 24-28 trading week with Mahashivaratri holiday on Wednesday
All but four stocks ended in negative territory in the 50-scrip basket.
Tech Mahindra, Wipro, UltraTech, TCS and Tata Motors were the worst hit, logging weekly losses of 7.8-9.8 per cent each.
