Sensex Falls Nearly 300 Points To Stall A 7-Day Winning Streak

Stock Market India: Equity benchmarks fell on Tuesday, reversing gains made earlier in the session.

Indian equity benchmarks fell on Tuesday, driven by jittery Chinese markets after Xi Jinping's new leadership team stoked concerns that a more potent Party leadership will prioritise the state at the expense of the private sector.

While Indian bourses showed modest gains early on Tuesday, sparked by a Wall Street rally on hopes the Federal Reserve may be closer to the end of its aggressive rate hikes policy, lower Asian peers on Tuesday on weakness in Chinese shares, and the yuan, limited the appeal for domestic stocks.
