Indian benchmarks—the 30-stock Sensex and the Nifty 50—fell around a percent each in opening trade on November 4, kicking off an action-packed week marked by the US Presidential election and the Federal Reserve's monetary policy meeting on a weak note. Weakness in the headline indices was intensified by selling across heavyweight names like Reliance Industries, Infosys, HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank, all of which traded in the red.
