The index stood at 28,491.05, down 350.45 points or 1.22% from the previous close of 28,841.50. The session opened at 29,090.30, which also turned out to be the day\u2019s high, and then slipped to an intraday low of 28,244.00 before settling lower. This intraday structure shows that sellers dominated after the open and that the sector remained weak through much of the session.<\/p>\n<p>For users tracking Nifty Auto live, Nifty Auto performance, Nifty Auto stocks, or the top gainers and losers in the auto sector, today\u2019s action offered a clear message: strength was concentrated in only a handful of names, while the majority of constituents declined. That imbalance matters because sector indices generally perform best when leadership is broad. Today, Nifty Auto did not have that support.<\/p>\n<p>The movement also becomes more meaningful when seen alongside breadth. Out of 15 constituents, only 5 advanced while 10 declined. That means two-thirds of the index ended in the red. Even though a few stocks such as Balkrishna Industries, Hero MotoCorp, and Bajaj Auto posted gains, they were not enough to offset the sharp declines in major laggards like Maruti Suzuki India, TVS Motor Company, Samvardhana Motherson International, Ashok Leyland, and Bosch.<\/p>\n<p>This article gives a complete, data-driven view of Nifty Auto today using verified price and constituent performance data. It covers the index snapshot, market breadth, full stock-wise performance, top gainers, top losers, heavyweight trends, practical interpretation of today\u2019s move, and what investors should monitor next in the sector.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p

Nifty Auto opened strong relative to the previous close, but the opening level also became the highest point of the session. When an index opens near the top and then trends lower, it often signals immediate selling pressure or lack of follow-through buying. The slide toward 28,244.00 and the eventual close at 28,491.05 suggest that market participants were more willing to book profits or reduce exposure than to add aggressively at higher levels.<\/p>\n<p>From a simple market-reading perspective, the sector saw a \u201cgap-up and fade\u201d type session. That is important for short-term traders and investors because such a pattern usually points to weak intraday conviction. In plain language, buyers could not hold the early advantage. By the close, the loss of 1.22% made Nifty Auto one of the weaker sectoral pockets for the day based on the available sector data.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_Nifty_Auto_Moving_Today\"><\/span>Why Is Nifty Auto Moving Today?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Based on the verified market data available, today\u2019s move in Nifty Auto was driven primarily by stock-specific declines across a majority of constituents rather than broad strength within the basket. The strongest evidence comes from the combination of a negative index return and weak market breadth. With 10 out of 15 stocks declining, the index fall was not caused by one isolated stock alone, even though some large declines had an outsized effect.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest drag came from <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/maruti\/maruti-suzuki-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Maruti Suzuki India Ltd.<\/a>, which dropped 4.41% to 12,950.00 from 13,547.00. A fall of that size in a major auto stock can heavily influence sentiment across the space. <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tvsmotor\/tvs-motor-company-ltd-share-price-today\">TVS Motor Company Ltd.<\/a> also lost 3.19%, while <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/motherson\/samvardhana-motherson-international-ltd-share-price-today\">Samvardhana Motherson International Ltd.<\/a> fell 2.98%, <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/ashokley\/ashok-leyland-ltd-share-price-today\">Ashok Leyland Ltd.<\/a> slipped 2.91%, and <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/boschltd\/bosch-ltd-share-price-today\">Bosch Ltd.<\/a> declined 2.90%.<\/p>\n<p>On the positive side, there were pockets of resilience. <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/balkrisind\/balkrishna-industries-ltd-share-price-today\">Balkrishna Industries Ltd.<\/a> rose 2.31%, <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/heromotoco\/hero-motocorp-ltd-share-price-today\">Hero MotoCorp Ltd.<\/a> gained 1.93%, and <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bajaj-auto\/bajaj-auto-ltd-share-price-today\">Bajaj Auto Ltd.<\/a> advanced 1.90%. However, those gains remained too narrow to change the index direction because the number of declining stocks was much larger than the number of advancing stocks.<\/p>\n<p>So, the most factual explanation for why Nifty Auto fell today is this: the sector saw widespread selling across its constituents, and the losses in several prominent auto names outweighed gains in a smaller set of outperformers. Since no verified earnings, policy, currency, commodity, or macro trigger is included in the data set, the cleanest interpretation remains price-led weakness at the constituent level.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Market_Breadth_How_Strong_or_Weak_Was_the_Auto_Pack\"><\/span>Market Breadth: How Strong or Weak Was the Auto Pack?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<th>Breadth Metric<\/th>\n<th>Value<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Advancing Stocks<\/td>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Declining Stocks<\/td>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Unchanged Stocks<\/td>\n<td>0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Advance-Decline Ratio<\/td>\n<td>0.50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Percentage in Green<\/td>\n<td>33.33%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Percentage in Red<\/td>\n<td>66.67%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>Market breadth is one of the most useful indicators when evaluating sector performance. It tells us whether a move is broad-based or driven by just a few heavyweights. In Nifty Auto today, the breadth was decisively weak. Only one-third of the stocks ended higher, while two-thirds closed lower.<\/p>\n<p>An advance-decline ratio of 0.50 means that for every two declining stocks, only one stock advanced. This is a bearish internal reading. When a sector index falls and breadth is also weak, the move usually carries more credibility than a decline caused by just one heavyweight. In today\u2019s case, the negative breadth confirms that weakness was spread across multiple segments of the auto ecosystem, including passenger vehicles, two-wheelers, commercial vehicles, auto ancillaries, and tyres.<\/p>\n<p>For investors, this matters because breadth often offers a deeper signal than the headline index number alone. A 1.22% decline may look moderate at first glance, but the breadth tells us the weakness was fairly broad. That makes the day\u2019s decline more meaningful from a sentiment perspective.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Complete_Nifty_Auto_Constituent_Performance\"><\/span>Complete Nifty Auto Constituent Performance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<th>Company<\/th>\n<th>CMP<\/th>\n<th>Today&#8217;s %<\/th>\n<th>Today&#8217;s Change<\/th>\n<th>Day Open<\/th>\n<th>Day High<\/th>\n<th>Day Low<\/th>\n<th>Trend<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/maruti\/maruti-suzuki-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Maruti Suzuki India Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>12,950.00<\/td>\n<td>-4.41%<\/td>\n<td>-597.00<\/td>\n<td>13,540.00<\/td>\n<td>13,540.00<\/td>\n<td>12,851.00<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tvsmotor\/tvs-motor-company-ltd-share-price-today\">TVS Motor Company Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>4,203.00<\/td>\n<td>-3.19%<\/td>\n<td>-138.30<\/td>\n<td>4,341.30<\/td>\n<td>4,409.00<\/td>\n<td>4,122.00<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/motherson\/samvardhana-motherson-international-ltd-share-price-today\">Samvardhana Motherson International Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>165.60<\/td>\n<td>-2.98%<\/td>\n<td>-5.08<\/td>\n<td>170.00<\/td>\n<td>170.00<\/td>\n<td>163.30<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/ashokley\/ashok-leyland-ltd-share-price-today\">Ashok Leyland Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>170.53<\/td>\n<td>-2.91%<\/td>\n<td>-5.11<\/td>\n<td>176.50<\/td>\n<td>176.50<\/td>\n<td>168.53<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/boschltd\/bosch-ltd-share-price-today\">Bosch Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>48,550.00<\/td>\n<td>-2.90%<\/td>\n<td>-1,450.00<\/td>\n<td>49,400.00<\/td>\n<td>49,400.00<\/td>\n<td>47,805.00<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bharatforg\/bharat-forge-ltd-share-price-today\">Bharat Forge Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>2,052.20<\/td>\n<td>-2.50%<\/td>\n<td>-52.70<\/td>\n<td>2,076.00<\/td>\n<td>2,076.10<\/td>\n<td>2,040.00<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/mrf\/mrf-ltd-share-price-today\">MRF Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>132,335.00<\/td>\n<td>-1.05%<\/td>\n<td>-1,410.00<\/td>\n<td>134,795.00<\/td>\n<td>134,795.00<\/td>\n<td>132,115.00<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/exideind\/exide-industries-ltd-share-price-today\">Exide Industries Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>436.25<\/td>\n<td>-0.91%<\/td>\n<td>-4.00<\/td>\n<td>439.10<\/td>\n<td>444.60<\/td>\n<td>434.00<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/mandm\/mahindra-and-mahindra-ltd-share-price-today\">Mahindra &amp; Mahindra Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>3,259.00<\/td>\n<td>-0.70%<\/td>\n<td>-23.00<\/td>\n<td>3,367.00<\/td>\n<td>3,368.00<\/td>\n<td>3,223.00<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tiindia\/tube-investments-of-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Tube Investments of India Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>2,763.20<\/td>\n<td>-0.60%<\/td>\n<td>-16.80<\/td>\n<td>2,794.90<\/td>\n<td>2,794.90<\/td>\n<td>2,743.50<\/td>\n<td>Bearish<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/eichermot\/eicher-motors-ltd-share-price-today\">Eicher Motors Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>7,970.00<\/td>\n<td>0.21%<\/td>\n<td>16.50<\/td>\n<td>7,975.00<\/td>\n<td>8,052.00<\/td>\n<td>7,860.00<\/td>\n<td>Positive<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tmpv\/tata-motors-ltd-share-price-today\">Tata Motors Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>310.00<\/td>\n<td>0.37%<\/td>\n<td>1.15<\/td>\n<td>317.20<\/td>\n<td>317.30<\/td>\n<td>308.95<\/td>\n<td>Positive<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bajaj-auto\/bajaj-auto-ltd-share-price-today\">Bajaj Auto Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>12,361.00<\/td>\n<td>1.90%<\/td>\n<td>231.00<\/td>\n<td>12,180.00<\/td>\n<td>12,470.00<\/td>\n<td>12,090.00<\/td>\n<td>Positive<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/heromotoco\/hero-motocorp-ltd-share-price-today\">Hero MotoCorp Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>5,555.00<\/td>\n<td>1.93%<\/td>\n<td>105.00<\/td>\n<td>5,610.00<\/td>\n<td>5,659.00<\/td>\n<td>5,495.50<\/td>\n<td>Positive<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/balkrisind\/balkrishna-industries-ltd-share-price-today\">Balkrishna Industries Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>2,331.80<\/td>\n<td>2.31%<\/td>\n<td>52.60<\/td>\n<td>2,300.90<\/td>\n<td>2,352.00<\/td>\n<td>2,295.00<\/td>\n<td>Positive<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>The full constituent table shows a mixed but clearly negative session.

Balkrishna Industries led the pack, followed by Hero MotoCorp and Bajaj Auto. These stocks provided pockets of resilience and prevented the index from seeing an even deeper decline. However, the fact that the strongest gainer rose only 2.31% while the top loser fell 4.41% highlights the asymmetry of the day: downside pressure was stronger than upside momentum.<\/p>\n<p>From a sector-rotation perspective, investors often watch whether gainers are large, broad, and numerous. Today, gainers were fewer in number and could not offset the decline in several other names. That suggests selective buying rather than broad-based sector accumulation.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_Losers_in_Nifty_Auto_Today\"><\/span>Top Losers in Nifty Auto Today<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<th>Company<\/th>\n<th>Price Change<\/th>\n<th>% Change<\/th>\n<th>Session View<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/maruti\/maruti-suzuki-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Maruti Suzuki India Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>-597.00<\/td>\n<td>-4.41%<\/td>\n<td>Largest loser and major drag<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tvsmotor\/tvs-motor-company-ltd-share-price-today\">TVS Motor Company Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>-138.30<\/td>\n<td>-3.19%<\/td>\n<td>Sharp decline<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/motherson\/samvardhana-motherson-international-ltd-share-price-today\">Samvardhana Motherson International Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>-5.08<\/td>\n<td>-2.98%<\/td>\n<td>Weak session<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/ashokley\/ashok-leyland-ltd-share-price-today\">Ashok Leyland Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>-5.11<\/td>\n<td>-2.91%<\/td>\n<td>Persistent selling pressure<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/boschltd\/bosch-ltd-share-price-today\">Bosch Ltd.<\/a><\/td>\n<td>-1,450.00<\/td>\n<td>-2.90%<\/td>\n<td>Meaningful drag<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top losers list explains why Nifty Auto stayed under pressure throughout the day. Maruti Suzuki India was the standout laggard and likely shaped much of the negative sentiment in the sector. TVS Motor Company, Samvardhana Motherson International, Ashok Leyland, and Bosch added to the pressure, showing that weakness was not limited to one industry niche inside the auto basket.<\/p>\n<p>This broad distribution of losers is notable. It affected vehicle manufacturers as well as ancillary names. That kind of pattern often makes the index decline more structurally significant for the session because it shows selling across the value chain rather than only in one pocket.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heavyweight_Stocks_and_Their_Influence_on_Nifty_Auto\"><\/span>Heavyweight Stocks and Their Influence on Nifty Auto<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Heavyweight movement matters because larger and widely tracked names often shape the day\u2019s index direction. Among the key heavyweight stocks tracked in the sector today, <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/mandm\/mahindra-and-mahindra-ltd-share-price-today\">Mahindra &amp; Mahindra Ltd.<\/a> fell 0.70%, <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/maruti\/maruti-suzuki-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Maruti Suzuki India Ltd.<\/a> dropped 4.41%, and <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/tmpv\/tata-motors-ltd-share-price-today\">Tata Motors Ltd.<\/a> rose 0.37%. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bajaj-auto\/bajaj-auto-ltd-share-price-today\">Bajaj Auto Ltd.<\/a> gained 1.90% and <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/eichermot\/eicher-motors-ltd-share-price-today\">Eicher Motors Ltd.<\/a> added 0.21%.<\/p>\n<p>The negative impact from Maruti Suzuki India stands out because a steep decline in a major auto name can offset moderate gains in several others. That appears to be what happened today. Even though Bajaj Auto and Hero MotoCorp delivered healthy gains, the combination of a sharp fall in Maruti Suzuki India and weakness in multiple other prominent names kept the sector benchmark firmly in the red.<\/p>\n<p>Investors following Nifty Auto today should remember that headline index performance is usually a weighted blend of heavyweight action and broader breadth. Today, both of those signals were weak enough to create a clear bearish session.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Most_Active_Stocks_in_Focus\"><\/span>Most Active Stocks in Focus<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The most active stocks list overlaps strongly with the heavyweight list, which is useful because it highlights where market attention was concentrated. The key names in focus included Mahindra &amp; Mahindra, Maruti Suzuki India, Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto, Eicher Motors, TVS Motor Company, Bosch, Samvardhana Motherson International, Hero MotoCorp, and Ashok Leyland.<\/p>\n<p>What stands out is that the actively watched names were split, but the larger and sharper declines came from some of the most influential counters. Maruti Suzuki India and TVS Motor Company both saw significant negative price moves, while Bajaj Auto and Hero MotoCorp offered the main support on the upside. This divergence inside high-attention names often shapes short-term trader behavior, as market participants look for relative strength and avoid stocks showing accelerated weakness.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Intraday_Structure_and_Trend_Interpretation\"><\/span>Intraday Structure and Trend Interpretation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The day\u2019s trading range for Nifty Auto ran from 28,244.00 to 29,090.30. Because the opening tick was also the day\u2019s high, the index effectively faced rejection at the top very early in the session. It then declined by more than 846 points from the high to the low before recovering slightly into the close. That sort of range behavior shows active selling pressure and only limited late-session stabilization.<\/p>\n<p>Based on available price action alone, the short-term session trend was bearish. The index closed below both the open and the previous close, and the majority of constituents ended lower. In plain English, the auto sector was unable to convert early strength into sustained gains. Instead, the market sold into the rise and maintained a negative tone for most of the day.<\/p>\n<p>For readers searching terms like \u201cNifty Auto analysis\u201d or \u201cNifty Auto trend today,\u201d the simplest conclusion is this: today\u2019s session reflected broad weakness with selective pockets of resilience. Until the sector sees a stronger participation rate from advancing stocks, single-stock gains may continue to struggle to lift the whole index.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Historical_Context_Based_on_Available_Session_Data\"><\/span>Historical Context Based on Available Session Data<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using the verified session data, the immediate comparison is straightforward: Nifty Auto moved from a previous close of 28,841.50 to 28,491.05, marking a one-day decline of 350.45 points or 1.22%. This places today firmly in the negative category on a day-over-day basis.<\/p>\n<p>While longer-period return windows are not established at the index level in the verified input used here, the daily move itself carries useful information. A 1.22% decline in a diversified sectoral index is large enough to matter, especially when accompanied by weak breadth. It tells us the session was not just mildly soft; it was meaningfully negative across the constituent set.<\/p>\n<p>At the stock level, dispersion was substantial. The spread between the best and worst performers was wide, with Balkrishna Industries up 2.31% and Maruti Suzuki India down 4.41%. Such a gap underlines the importance of stock selection within sector investing. Even inside a declining index, a few names can remain resilient, but broad participation is still the key driver of index direction.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Should_Investors_Watch_Next_in_Nifty_Auto\"><\/span>What Should Investors Watch Next in Nifty Auto?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Based on today\u2019s verified market action, investors should watch whether the sector can improve breadth in the next session. A recovery attempt becomes more credible only if the number of advancing stocks expands meaningfully beyond today\u2019s 5 advancers. If the index rises but breadth stays narrow, that may indicate only temporary relief rather than a stronger shift in sector sentiment.<\/p>\n<p>Second, traders should monitor whether the weakest names continue to face pressure. Maruti Suzuki India, TVS Motor Company, Samvardhana Motherson International, Ashok Leyland, and Bosch were the main drags today. If these stocks stabilize, the pressure on the sector could ease. If they continue to underperform while breadth remains negative, the sector may struggle to regain momentum.<\/p>\n<p>Third, relative strength among gainers deserves attention. Balkrishna Industries, Hero MotoCorp, and Bajaj Auto stood out positively. If these stocks continue to hold gains or extend strength while some of the laggards stabilize, Nifty Auto could see a healthier internal setup. On the other hand, if today\u2019s gainers also fade, that would weaken the bullish case further.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the index\u2019s intraday behavior will remain important. Today\u2019s open-to-high rejection was a sign of weak follow-through. A stronger setup in the next session would likely require the sector to hold early gains better than it did today.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Takeaways_on_Nifty_Auto_Today\"><\/span>Key Takeaways on Nifty Auto Today<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Nifty Auto closed at 28,491.05, down 350.45 points or 1.22%.<\/li>\n<li>The index opened at 29,090.30, which was also the day\u2019s high, and later fell to 28,244.00.<\/li>\n<li>The session trend was bearish because the index closed below both the opening level and previous close.<\/li>\n<li>Market breadth was weak: 5 stocks advanced and 10 declined, with an advance-decline ratio of 0.50.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/maruti\/maruti-suzuki-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Maruti Suzuki India Ltd.<\/a> was the biggest loser, down 4.41%.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/balkrisind\/balkrishna-industries-ltd-share-price-today\">Balkrishna Industries Ltd.<\/a> was the top gainer, up 2.31%.<\/li>\n<li>Other strong gainers included <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/heromotoco\/hero-motocorp-ltd-share-price-today\">Hero MotoCorp Ltd.<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bajaj-auto\/bajaj-auto-ltd-share-price-today\">Bajaj Auto Ltd.<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Weakness was broad-based across the sector, making the decline more significant than a one-stock move.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Overall, Nifty Auto today reflected a clear risk-off session within the auto basket.

While a few stocks showed resilience, the broader sector performance remained decisively soft.<\/p>\n<p class=\"univest-posted-at\" style=\"font-size:14px;color:#666;margin:20px 0 8px\">Published on 1 September 2026 at 4:06 PM IST<\/p>\n<section class=\"univest-login-cta\" style=\"margin:28px 0;padding:24px;border-radius:10px;background:#eef5ff;border:1px solid #cddff7;text-align:center\">\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Know_more_with_Univest\"><\/span>Know more with Univest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Log in to Univest to explore market insights, track stocks, and get <strong>3 free trade ideas<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/share-market-today\">Share Market Today<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in\" style=\"display:inline-block;padding:11px 20px;border-radius:6px;background:#1f4e79;color:#fff !important;text-decoration:none;font-weight:700\">Know More &#8211; Log In<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_What_is_Nifty_Auto_today\"><\/span>1.
