share market
Today (July 28, 2026) an atmosphere of extreme laziness and volatility was seen in the stock market. Under the pressure of monthly expiry, the market neither made any big jump nor fell much. But amid this seemingly calm business, investors have suffered a major shock. After a day’s trading, both Sensex and Nifty closed in the red. Even this seemingly minor fall has wiped out more than Rs 1.10 lakh crore from the pockets of stock market investors.
Rs 1.10 lakh crore lost in a single day
The total market cap of all stocks listed on BSE as on July 27, 2026 was approximately ₹4,80.33 lakh crore. Today i.e. on July 28, 2026, it has come down to ₹ 4,79.22 lakh crore. That means there has been a decline of ₹ 1.10 crore in investors’ capital today.
IT sector got support, banking sector battered
Mainly the IT and real estate sectors tried to handle today’s falling market. The Nifty IT index registered a strong rise of more than 3 percent, while the realty sector also closed with a rise of more than 2 percent. On the other hand, shares of FMCG and public sector banks (PSU Banks) completely spoiled the mood of the market. A weakness of more than 1 percent was seen in Nifty FMCG. Apart from this, Nifty PSU Bank index fell by 1 percent and Private Bank index fell by 0.40 percent.
Slow movement of Sensex-Nifty
Talking about the benchmark indices, they were traded in a very limited range throughout the day. Sensex closed at 76,765.92 with a slight fall of 69.86 points (0.09%). At the same time, Nifty 50 also showed a slight slip of 10.60 points (0.09%) and stopped at the level of 23,985.35. During trading, the Sensex at one time jumped 152 points to reach 76,988, but could not hold on to the upper levels. Nifty also made a high of 24,041, but in the end profit booking pushed the market into the red.
There was strong action in these shares
Out of the 30 leading stocks included in the Sensex, 17 managed to close in the green today. Shares like TCS, Zomato and Tech Mahindra gained the most, which made investors profitable. On the contrary, the biggest decline was recorded in the shares of Hindustan Unilever (HUL), BEL and NTPC. A total of 4424 shares were traded on BSE today. Out of these, 109 shares touched their one-year high (52-week high), while 84 shares fell to their 52-week low.
