Nifty 50 Slides 0.48% as India Stocks Close Lower

India’s benchmark Nifty 50 index slipped 0.48% to close lower on Thursday, ending the session in the red after a week of mixed market sentiment. The decline came amid global risk‑aversion and domestic concerns over inflationary pressures. The benchmark Sensex also fell, with technology and financial stocks dragging the market down. Analysts say the slide reflects a cautious stance from investors as they weigh economic data and geopolitical developments.
