IndusInd Bank’s share saw the biggest drop of 6 percent. Apart from this, shares of ONGC, Kotak Bank, Axis Bank, NTPC, Bajaj Finance and HDFC also broke. Meanwhile, shares of Sun Pharma and Bharti Airtel remained in the green mark.

US stock markets on Thursday saw a significant decline. The recent fall in the stock markets has been witnessed in the US due to the rise in Corona virus cases once again and the hopes of an early economic recovery. 

Experts say market sentiment has been affected even after Fed Reserve chief Jerome Powell indicated that the US economy would take some time to recover from the Corona crisis.

Shanghai, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Seoul are also seeing a decline of up to two per cent in the stock market.
