BSE Sensex falls more than 700 points as global sell‑off intensifies

The BSE Sensex experienced a sharp decline on the trading day. The index fell by more than 700 points. The drop came as global equity markets entered a broad sell‑off. Investor sentiment was weighed down by concerns over macro‑economic data. The fall added pressure to Indian equities already under strain. Analysts noted the move reflects heightened risk aversion abroad. Market participants will watch for any policy response from regulators. The next trading session may determine whether the sell‑off eases.
