Indian markets witnessed a sharp fall as BSE Sensex crashed 3,939 points and NSE Nifty dropped 1,160 points in early trade on Monday, reacting to steep tariff hikes by the United States and China’s retaliation. Heavyweights like Tata Steel, Tata Motors, Infosys, and Reliance Industries saw major losses. Rising global tensions, inflation fears, and foreign institutional investor selling may keep market volatility high in the near term.
