The key stock indices had slumped to seven-month lows on Tuesday due to foreign fund outflows and profit-taking by investors amid tariff war worries. The sensex tanked by 1,235 points and Nifty by 320 points.
“The benchmark indices rebounded amidst heightened volatility following better-than-expected results from a major private bank.
