The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- The Sensex and Nifty50 ended with different results after Indian exchanges introduced a new closing auction session for price discovery.
- The auction replaced the earlier volume-weighted average price method and now sets the closing price through an equilibrium price mechanism that maximises trading volume.

What to watch next
