stock market update
On 24 December, the Sensex and the Nifty ended lower ahead of the Christmas holiday, weighed down by FII selling and profit-booking across key sectors. The benchmark indices slipped from their intraday highs, with the Sensex closing at 85,408.70, down 116.14 points (0.14%), while the Nifty settled at 26,142.10, losing 37.45 points (0.14%). The decline was largely attributed to foreign institutional investors offloading equities worth nearly 1,795 crore, marking the second consecutive day of net selling after a brief buying streak.
