Indian shares fell for a fifth straight session on Friday, with the Nifty 50 closing down 0.75% at 25,683.30 and the Sensex ending 0.72% lower at 83,576.24. The benchmarks lost about 2.5% each for the week, their worst weekly drop in more than three months, as tariff jitters kept buyers on the sidelines. “If such extreme tariffs are enacted, the immediate effect would be volatility in sectors linked to U.S. trade… and renewed caution in foreign investor flows,” said Amit Jain, co-founder of Ashika Global Family Office Services.
