US Tariffs Market Slump: 6 Crucial Factors Behind the Devastating 200-Point Nifty Sell-off

Posted on September 26, 2025 By

There was a dramatic turnaround in the last trading day of the week on Dalal Street with a fresh wave of geopolitical uncertainty emerging, namely, the announcement of the steep US tariffs, finally leaving a large wave of selling spree. The yardstick index, the Nifty 50 index, lost key psychological support by falling more than 200 points, and the Sensex broke nearly one per cent. The front lines were not the only deep cuts, with the extended market sensing the heat and the underlying indication of an overhauling of market sentiment to extreme caution. This one incident led to a major US Tariffs Market Slump.

The immediate and primary catalyst for the widespread decline was the latest trade intervention from US President Donald Trump. In a significant policy development, Trump announced a punitive 100 percent tariff on all branded and patented pharmaceutical imports, effective October 1, unless the exporting companies commit to establishing domestic manufacturing facilities in the United States. This aggressive stance is a direct effort to compel the reshoring of high-value production and reduce America’s reliance on foreign supply chains.

Navigating the Tariff Turbulence: Pharma and IT Under Pressure

The US Tariffs Market Slump was most pronounced in sectors with heavy US exposure. The Nifty Pharma index was among the top sectoral losers, sinking over two percent in trade. Indian pharmaceutical companies, globally renowned for their low-cost, high-volume generic drug exports, typically enjoy a degree of insulation from such targeted measures. However, the ambiguity surrounding “complex generics and speciality medicines” introduces a layer of risk.

Indian pharmaceutical firms, most of which are involved in the exportation of generic medications, will not experience major hitches. Nonetheless, companies such as Sun Pharma, which sell branded and patented products under the contract manufacturing organisation in the US and the EU, might experience a moderated effect on their distributed production model, as stated by Devarsh Vakil, Head of Prime Research at HDFC Securities. This school of thought insists on a disciplined opinion, which argues that, although the effect is quantified, the firms which had a diversified production structure, which is an indicator of long-term business foresight, can better cope with the shock in the short term.

The technology sector also faced intense selling pressure, with the Nifty IT index marking its sixth straight session of losses. This weakness was amplified by a weak growth outlook from global bellwether Accenture, which cited US federal spending cuts on consultants as a drag on future revenue. The confluence of geopolitical trade risks in the pharma space and a slowing demand signal in the IT sector created a ‘double whammy’ effect, driving indices lower.

Clarity, Consistency, and the Technical Outlook

The response in the market brings out the fundamental principles of investment strategy: discipline, focus, trust, clarity, consistency, and positivity. The sell-off was also in response to uncertainty about future US trade policy and a blow to confidence about the future visibility of short-term earnings to export-oriented companies. Investors in a knee-jerk effort were not disciplined to hold high-quality stocks, and they engaged in panic selling.

Technically, the market had definite indications of deteriorating consistency. The bearish tilt is highlighted by the Nifty closing below its psychological point of 25,000 for the first time in weeks, and five straight sessions of lower close and the apparent pattern of lower highs.

Dhupesh Dhameja, Derivatives Research Analyst at SAMCO Securities, says it is still dangerous: “Sellers are still likely to continue to hold the high ground as long as the index is below the 25,05025,000 resistance band. The breakdown below 24,800 may open the additional downside to 24,620, and the near-term perspective may be sideways to bearish.

This technical emphasis on prominent resistance and support levels offers a systematic way of going through the turmoil on the part of the market players. Having positivity in this environment does not mean risk ignoring, but sticking to a long-term investment structure, with the realization that risks of short-term geopolitical shocks present opportunities to those with capital and a high conviction focus.

The very rapid, widespread drop, involving approximately 2828 shares falling and 912 rising, indicates that market participants are adjusting an excessively high risk premium, awaiting a resolution on the trade front and a steadier earnings trend by the heavy-weight IT industry. The point is that even though news in the short term causes turbulence, one must have a sense of strategic discipline and never lose their faith in fundamental value.
