Markets closed significantly lower after failing to sustain early gains. The Nifty and Sensex both dropped over 2%, with banking stocks underperforming at a 3% decline. While some midday reports highlighted reduced volatility and temporary rallies, selling pressure ultimately dominated the session. Regulatory resolutions involving major conglomerates and large corporate deals provided isolated points of interest, but couldn't offset the broader downward trend across key indices.
