Stock market crash: The Indian stock market remained in the bear grip for the sixth consecutive session on Monday, January 12, on rising geopolitical risks, concerns over US tariffs, and relentless foreign capital outflow.

The Sensex crashed over 500 points, or more than 0.60%, to an intraday low of 83,043, while the Nifty 50 dropped to 25,529 during the session on Monday, falling 0.60%.

Over the six consecutive sessions, the Sensex has tanked over 2,700 points, or more than 3%, while the Nifty 50, too, has shed more than 3%.

Investors’ wealth has been eroded by more than ₹16 lakh crore in these six sessions, as the overall market capitalisation of BSE-listed firms dropped to nearly ₹465 lakh crore from over ₹481 lakh crore in January 2.
