Indian frontline indices fell for the seventh straight session on February 13, with Nifty 50 and Sensex closing in the red due to mid-session selling. Selling pressure has decreased in the last two trading sessions.

Indian benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty, opened higher on Thursday, breaking a six-day losing streak, driven by gains in banking and financial stocks as investors responded to domestic inflation data suggesting a potential rate cut.

The domestic equity market failed to sustain early gains and ended near the day’s low, extending its losing streak to seven consecutive sessions. This marks the longest losing run in three months, as selling pressure intensified in the final hour of trade.
