The stock market today told a cautious story once again. For the third session in a row, selling pressure stayed strong. Risk appetite faded fast. Global uncertainty kept investors on the sidelines. And several well-known names felt the heat.
Among them were Trent, Tata Chemicals, and Tata Teleservices share price, all slipping to fresh one-year lows as the broader market continued to weaken.
From a Samco Securities market desk view, this wasn’t panic selling. It looked more like sustained risk-off behavior, driven by global cues and fragile domestic sentiment.
Market Performance: Indian Markets Under Pressure for Third Day
Wednesday’s session stayed weak right from the start.
Both frontline indices cracked key psychological levels during the day.
- Nifty 50 slipped 1.24% to 24,919 at its intraday low
- Sensex dropped 1.3% to 81,124
The pressure came from two sides. Global uncertainty remained unresolved. Domestic earnings failed to lift confidence.
December-quarter results from the first batch of Nifty 50 companies came in muted. Higher costs linked to labour code–related expenses weighed on the bottom line. That tone spilled over into broader market sentiment.
Foreign investors stayed cautious too.
- ₹2,938 crore sold by FPIs on Tuesday
- ₹29,135 crore total outflows so far this month (NSDL data)
The rupee also felt the stress, sliding to a record low of ₹91.54 against the US dollar.
Main News: Tata Group Stocks Hit Fresh 1-Year Lows
As risk aversion deepened, several Tata Group stocks moved sharply lower.
The selling wasn’t limited to one pocket. It spread across chemicals, retail, telecom, and auto space.
Tata Chemicals Share Price Leads the Decline
Tata Chemicals share price turned out to be the worst performer among Tata Group stocks during the session.
- Down 4.2% in Wednesday’s trade
- Touched a fresh one-year low of ₹700
- Marked the fourth consecutive day of decline
- Total fall over four sessions: ~10%
The steady decline, rather than a single sharp fall, reflected persistent selling pressure.
Trent Share Price Hits One-Year Low Again
Trent share price also stayed under pressure and continued its weak run.
- Fell nearly 4% during the session
- Slipped to a one-year low of ₹3,736
- Month-to-date decline stands at 13%
The stock’s longer-term performance has also weighed on sentiment.
- 40% fall in CY25
- First annual decline since 2013
That shift has kept investors cautious, especially after weak recent quarterly performance impacted confidence.
Tata Teleservices Share Price Slips to 52-Week Low
Pressure was visible in the telecom space as well.
- Tata Teleservices (Maharashtra) share price touched a new 52-week low of ₹41.9
The move came amid broader weakness rather than any stock-specific trigger, as risk appetite stayed low across sectors.
Other Tata Group Stocks Feeling the Strain
The selling wasn’t limited to just three names.
- Tejas Networks share price
- Fell 2% to ₹321.55
- Down for the ninth consecutive session
- 27% decline in January, its steepest monthly fall in a year
- Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles share price
- Touched a one-year low of ₹333.95
- Later recovered and traded 1% higher at ₹341 around mid-day
This mixed intraday recovery showed selective bargain hunting, but not enough to change the overall market tone.
Company Details at a Glance

Why Stock Market Today Stayed Weak?
The broader mood stayed fragile due to overlapping global and domestic factors.
Global concerns played a major role.
Concerns over rising global trade tensions came back into focus after US President Donald Trump renewed tariff threats against European nations connected to Greenland, unsettling investors and reviving fears of a wider trade conflict.
That fear revived memories of the sharp sell-off seen last April when “liberation tariffs” were announced.
On the domestic front, muted earnings and continued foreign selling added to the pressure.
Together, they kept investors defensive and selective.
Summary: A Risk-Off Day for Tata Stocks and Markets
The stock market today reflected caution, not chaos.
- Trent, Tata Chemicals, and Tata Teleservices share price touched fresh lows
- Tata Chemicals led the decline within the group
- Broader indices stayed under pressure for the third straight session
- Global trade worries and muted earnings weighed on sentiment
- FPI outflows and a weak rupee added to discomfort
For now, the market mood remains guarded. Until global signals stabilize and domestic confidence improves, volatility is likely to remain part of the daily market narrative.
