After a 4% rally in 2 weeks, markets were overheated. Investors hit the sell button before it gets too hot to handle. 2. Q4 Earnings Nifty50 earnings grew under 6%.

That's money magnet for global funds—India loses the spotlight. 4. Global Mood = Nervous Wall Street wobble + Asia in the red = no support system for Dalal Street.
