Sensex sees worst day in 10 months, sinks 3.8%

The BSE Sensex crashed about 1,940 points to post its biggest single-day fall in almost 10 months, and the NSE Nifty plunged more than 568 points to settle below the psychological 15,000-mark on Friday, tracking global sell-offs triggered by a panic in bond markets overseas. Investors also turned cautious ahead of India’s third quarter GDP data release, while keeping an eye on simmering tensions between the U.S. and Syria.
