Market snapshot

Nifty 5023,635.10-0.61%
Sensex75,577.58-0.73%
Bank Nifty56,777.55-0.54%

Previous close · 8 Sept 2026 · Nifty has closed between -1.0% and -0.5% on 149 of the last 1,254 sessions.

In the previous session, Indian markets faced pressure as oil prices continued their upward march amid escalating geopolitical tensions between Iran and the US. The rise in crude prices weighed on energy stocks, with BPCL and HINDPETRO among the top losers. Meanwhile, defence stocks like HAL gained traction, reflecting investor interest in the sector. Amidst these developments, institutional investors showed contrasting activity, with foreign institutional investors selling while domestic institutions bought heavily.
