If the drop in headline indices was scary, the performance of the broader market was worse. On Thursday, the Nifty Smallcap 100 index dropped 6.3 per cent, entering bear market territory. The index is now down 22 per cent from its 2022 peak.
The Nifty Midcap 100 Index, which also fell about 6 per cent, is on the verge of entering bear market territory, having dropped 18 per cent from its peak. In comparison, the benchmark Nifty is down 12 per cent from this year’s high of 18,477.
