Post-Market Update: Market Closing today (June 12, 2025)

Nifty Falls Below 25,000; Ends 6-Day Winning Streak, Market Breadth Turns Negative

On June 12, the Indian equity benchmark indices closed in the red. The Nifty 50 index ended its 6-days winning streak, recording the highest intraday fall in the last month.

After opening in positive territory, the indices remain weak. After midday, benchmark indices lost momentum and gave up. 

At the closing bell, the Nifty 50 ended down by 253.20 points or 1.01%, at 24,888.20. The Sensex tanked by 823.16 points or 1% to 81,691.98. The decline in Indian equity benchmark indices was due to lingering uncertainty around the U.S.-China trade deal, and mounting geopolitical tensions in the Middle East dented risk appetite.

Indian stock markets extended their losses following the crash of an Air India flight carrying 242 passengers shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad, located in eastern Gujarat. Shares of airline companies were among the worst hit, with Interglobe Aviation (IndiGo) falling 2.7% and SpiceJet declining 1.8% during the session.

All 11 key sectoral indices ended in negative territory. Losses were seen in the broader markets with the Nifty Mid-cap and Nifty Small-cap indices closing in dip red.
