Nifty Ends Weak Below 26,000; All Major Sectors in Red

Indian markets witnessed a lacklustre session on Thursday as benchmark indices slipped below the 26,000 mark and extended losses through the day.

In the derivatives segment, as of 2:30 p.m., 48 stocks were advancing against 167 declines, indicating a clear negative bias. Open interest build-up was notable in Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, LICHSGFIN, CIPLA, BHEL, and Dabur, reflecting active positioning in these counters..
