Nifty breaks 3-day gains amid geopolitical tensions | Closing Bell
Indian markets witnessed a sharp pause after a three-day rally, as both benchmark indices — Sensex and Nifty — declined nearly 1% each amid rising global concerns. The Nifty slipped below the crucial 25,600 mark, reflecting broad-based weakness across sectors. Except for pharma, all sectoral indices ended in the red, with realty and FMCG emerging as the worst-hit segments. Investor sentiment remained fragile following reports of a US military build-up in the Middle East, which heightened geopolitical tensions and triggered risk-off positioning. Market breadth also turned negative, with the advance-decline ratio at 1:2, indicating widespread selling pressure. Volatility spiked as India VIX surged 8%, underscoring growing uncertainty. On the stock-specific front, ONGC, Hindalco, and Infosys managed to buck the trend and close as top gainers within the Nifty 50, while IndiGo, Trent, and UltraTech Cement featured among the top laggards of the session.
