|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IEX | 139.02 | −48.87 | −26.01% | 275.10 | 410.58 |

Conclusion: Market Sentiment on 24 July 2025
The Indian stock market witnessed a pullback as investors exercised caution, possibly due to weak global cues, profit booking in tech stocks, or sectoral rotation. While selective buying was visible in small- and mid-cap counters like FORCEMOT and INDO BORAX, heavyweight sectors such as IT and energy saw significant sell-offs. The coming sessions will be crucial as traders eye global central bank decisions and domestic corporate results.
