IPC Index — Mexico MarketIndia’s BSE Sensex fell around 1.1% to 72,775 on Monday, extending the previous session’s sharp sell-off and marking its lowest level since March 23, as the Middle East conflict continued to drive sentiment. Oil prices surged above $115 per barrel, raising concerns over inflation, higher import costs, and a potential global recession, while foreign outflows from Indian equities persisted, reaching $12.3 billion in March. The index is down about 10.1% this month, on track for its worst monthly performance in six years. Investors also remained cautious ahead of February year-on-year industrial and manufacturing production data due later in the day, after both eased to 4.8% in January from 8% in December. Most sectors traded in the red, with financials, consumer, communication, and miscellaneous stocks posting the steepest decline. Top laggards included Tata Motors (-6%), Billionbrains Garage (-4.7%), Axis Bank (-3.6%), Bharti Airtel (-1.7%), ICICI Bank (-1.7%), and HDFC Bank (-1.4%).
