After meandering along the flatline for a better part of Thursday’s trading session, a combination of the weekly options expiry and India’s confirmation of retaliating to Pakistan’s attempts at targeting the country’s military establishments saw the Nifty fall nearly 200 points from the day’s high.

While provisional closing indicated a close at 24,150, the final tick saw a 120-point adjustment, leading to the index closing at 24,273. However, it was the broader markets that saw sharper cuts, with the Midcap index declining by over 1,000 points.
