Sensex, Nifty outlook: Will the October series disappoint or Diwali muhurat will bring cheer in investors portfolio? | Stock Market News
Indian shares had a rough September. The Sensex dropped about 4,320 points, or 5.7%, to 72,480, and the Nifty fell nearly 6% to around 22,650. Foreign investors kept selling, though domestic buying cushioned the fall. If you hold stocks or mutual funds, your portfolio likely shrank. October may stay choppy, so look at company earnings more than the index itself.
Key Statutory Highlights
- The BSE Sensex fell around 4,320 points, or 5.6-5.8%, from nearly 76,800 on August 31 to 72,480.29 on September 30.
- The NSE Nifty 50 declined by about 1,364-1,450 points, or 5.7-6.1%, ending September near 22,630-22,716.
- Foreign investors stayed net sellers during September, but strong buying by domestic investors cushioned the market and prevented a sharper fall.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you hold stocks or mutual funds, avoid panic selling based on one bad month. Check whether your holdings are companies with strong earnings visibility and healthy balance sheets, since October may reward stock picking rather than a broad index rally. Speak to your adviser before making large moves.
