Nifty 50 and Sensex open lower amid global sell-off, metal index leads declines
India’s benchmark indexes started 21 November 2025 in red as global risk aversion weighed. The Sensex opened about 250 points lower and the Nifty 50 tested the 26,000 level, while the metal sector index plunged nearly 1%. 
The India VIX rose to 13.85, its highest since June. Major losers included banks and ICICI Bank, while select IT stocks offered support. Domestic flows remain healthy but global cues limit upside.
