MUMBAI: The Indian stock market faced a massive sell-off today as the Sensex plunged 1,342 points and Nifty settled below 23,900. Escalating West Asia war tensions and concerns over a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz triggered panic, wiping out ₹5.05 lakh crore of investor wealth. Banking and Auto sectors were hit hardest, while the Rupee hit a record low of 92.04.
