Nifty 50 crashes over 10% YTD | Will it continue to bleed or green will be seen? Decoded
The Nifty 50 is down about 10.5% so far in 2026, with the Sensex falling over 12% and Bank Nifty about 5.2%. Reliance and HDFC Bank, down roughly 20% and 30%, are the biggest drag. High crude prices, rising US bond yields and US-Iran tensions keep sentiment weak. Watch the Jio Platforms IPO and HDFC Bank's new chief executive.
Key Statutory Highlights
- The Nifty 50 index has shed around 10.50% this year, while the BSE Sensex fell over 12% and Bank Nifty about 5.20%.
- Index heavyweights Reliance Industries and HDFC Bank have dropped nearly 20% and 30% respectively, which experts call a major reason for the fall.
- Experts expect the Jio Platforms IPO around Dussehra and a new HDFC Bank CEO by end-September 2026 to lift these two shares.
