The Indian stock market extended its slide for the sixth consecutive session on Thursday, November 14. However, the pace of selling slowed notably as heavyweight stocks like Reliance Industries and HDFC Bank provided support, preventing a further significant decline.
Some renewed interest was observed in banking and auto stocks during today’s session, driving frontline indices to gain 0.50% in the first half of trading. However, heavy selling pressure from the FMCG pack put strain on the indices, leading them to close flat.
