The combined market valuation of the top 10 valued firms eroded by INR 1,68,552.42 crore last week, with Reliance Industries taking the biggest hit in an overall weak broader market. Last week, the Sensex tumbled 1,492.52 points or 2.43 per cent. Market sentiment remained weak amid surging Covid cases in China and a few other nations, while stronger US growth data cemented expectations of the Federal Reserve continuing with its hawkish stance, according to a PTI report.
The report stated that Reliance Industries' valuation tanked INR 42,994.44 crore to INR 16,92,411.37 crore. State Bank of India's market valuation tumbled INR 26,193.74 crore to INR 5,12,228.09 crore. Similarly, the market capitalisation of ICICI Bank diminished by INR 16,014.14 crore to INR 6,13,366.40 crore and that of Hindustan Unilever declined by INR 11,877.18 crore to INR 6,15,557.67 crore.
