  Stock Market Crash Live Updates: Here's how markets have performed on previous election result days

  In a historical context, the Indian benchmark indices have only twice reported negative returns on Lok Sabha election result days out of the last six. The Nifty, which plunged over 8 percent in today’s intraday trading, also experienced a dip on the previous election result day, May 23, 2019, with a decline of 0.7 percent. Contrastingly, the markets recorded positive returns on all election result days prior to 1999.

  Today’s trading session witnessed a significant reversal in the Indian markets, erasing Monday’s gains. This shift occurred as the Lok Sabha election results deviated from the positive predictions of exit polls. The unforeseen development triggered a wave of panic among investors, resulting in a frantic selloff that erased approximately ₹26 lakh crore in wealth during intraday trading.

  Stock Market Crash Live Updates: Exit polls were done to influence share market, says CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury

  CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury on Tuesday slammed the exit polls that predicted a landslide victory for the BJP-led NDA, alleging that they were done to influence the share market.

  Yechury's reaction came as the latest trends from the counting of votes in the 2024 Lok Sabha election suggested that the Opposition INDIA bloc is giving a strong fight to the ruling dispensation contrary to most of the predictions of the exit polls.

  "Exit poll was done to influence the share market and those who wanted to make money in the share market yesterday made money. Now the reality is coming in front of you. Now let the full results come, after that, we will tell you. INDIA alliance is doing well," Yechury told ANI.

  After the exit polls prediction, the key benchmark indices of Indian stock markets, the S&P BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty-50, surged over 3.3% to their all-time high on Monday.
