Read EquityPandit’s Nifty Bank Outlook for the Week
Stock Market Snaps Winning Streak; Sensex Slumped 800 Points

Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty fell over 1% on Wednesday, 26 March, ending a seven-session winning streak, as investors booked profits amid uncertainty over US tariff policies.
Sensex, which opened on a strong note, briefly touched an intraday high of 78,167.87, gaining 150.68 points. However, selling pressure in select heavyweight stocks pulled it down by 806.45 points, or 1.03%, to a low of 77,210.74.
Similarly, the NSE Nifty slipped below the critical 23,500 level, hitting a low of 23,451.70 after initially rising 67.85 points to 23,736.50.
Key Factors Behind the Market Decline:
- US Tariff Uncertainty: Investor sentiment was weighed down by concerns over US trade policies. President Donald Trump has hinted at a major tariff announcement on 2 April, calling it a “Liberation Day” against nations he accuses of unfair trade practices. His remarks about “limited exceptions” have unsettled global markets, including India.
- Profit Booking: Following a week-long rally, investors locked in gains, causing a market pullback.
- Rupee Depreciation: The Indian rupee weakened by 6 paise to 85.78 against the US dollar in early trade, pressured by weak equities and a stronger dollar. Forex traders attributed the decline to liquidity constraints, concerns over reciprocal tariffs, and month-end dollar demand from importers. On Tuesday, the rupee had already ended its seven-session gaining streak, closing 11 paise lower at 85.72 per dollar.
- Rising Crude Oil Prices: Oil prices climbed as supply concerns mounted following President Trump’s threats of tariffs on countries importing oil and gas from Venezuela. As a major crude importer, India’s stock market remains sensitive to oil price fluctuations.

Battery Manufacturing Company Shares Soar 5% on Positive News for Lithium-ion Batteries

The shares of battery manufacturers Amara Raja and Exide Industries increased 5% and 4%, respectively, on Wednesday, 26 March, after the Center increased the safe harbour threshold to Rs 300 crore from the current Rs 200 crore to include lithium-ion batteries used in electric or hybrid electric vehicles as “core auto components.”
It is expected that the action will benefit battery producers by protecting India’s electric vehicle (EV) ecosystem, encouraging investment, and lowering compliance risks. Due to the rule’s new classification of lithium-ion batteries as “core auto components,” importers can now have their declared transfer prices accepted with minimal investigation.
When conducting cross-border business, companies may buy and sell goods between their subsidiaries; the term “transfer price” refers to the price at which these transactions occur. Businesses are closely monitored by tax authorities to ensure they are not manipulating these prices to shift earnings to countries with lower taxes.
As long as businesses declare transfer prices within the permitted range, tax authorities will accept them without any problems, according to the safe harbour expansion of the CBDT. This ensures a smoother import process for EV battery parts and removes a major regulatory obstacle.
At 2:20 pm, the shares of Amara Raja were trading 0.31% higher at Rs 1,058.70, and Exide Industries were trading % higher at 0.42% higher at Rs 361.70 on NSE.
