Sensex and Nifty stall as banking weighs down market and Titan sparks a tariff shock

One tariff change triggers Titan’s sharp sector slide

Indian benchmark indices showed resilience but ended nearly flat in a volatile session. The Nifty 50 hovered around 23,400 with a broader market tilt toward decliners. The Sensex struggled as banking dragged sentiment. A major driver was Titan, which saw heavy selling after import tariffs were raised, while select FMCG and pharma stocks offered limited support.
