  • Nifty gives up 1% | Global markets trade lower | Oil gains with Brent at $98

    Indian markets ended the session on a weak note, with the Nifty 50 falling 1% as selling pressure intensified through the day. The index failed to sustain higher levels and gradually moved lower, reflecting cautious investor sentiment. The decline was in line with **global markets**, which traded lower amid renewed geopolitical concerns.
