Sensex and Nifty Extend Losses Amid Rising Oil Prices, Modest Rebound on IT Stock Gains
Indian equity markets extended losses for three consecutive sessions amid rising crude oil prices and escalating tensions in West Asia, with the Sensex falling over 460 points and the Nifty slipping below 22,700. Broad-based selling affected sectors like FMCG, IT, metals, and mid- and small-cap stocks. Investor concerns centered on inflation risks, higher import costs, and corporate margins. On the following day, markets rebounded modestly, supported by IT stocks and expected liquidity from the Jio Platforms IPO, though gains were capped by persistent oil price pressures.
