Indian markets closed lower on Monday, led by IT stocks, as renewed US-China trade tensions and a US government shutdown dampened investor sentiment. Analysts noted profit booking in consumption sectors and mixed Q2 earnings, though mid- and small-cap stocks showed resilience. The Nifty defended its support at 25,200, with a bullish outlook above 25,050.
