POST-MARKET SUMMARY 12th August 2025

On August 12, benchmark indices closed a volatile session with losses. Nifty 50 ended below 24,500 at the day's low, driven by selling pressure in financials, realty and FMCG sectors. However, buying in auto, IT, pharma, and oil & gas stocks helped limit the losses.
