MARKET COMMENTARY

Apr-24-2026 08:28

Indian equity benchmarks, BSE Sensex and Nifty 50, are expected to open on a positive note today, supported by firm global cues. GIFT Nifty is trading higher around 24,230, indicating a strong start for domestic markets.

In the previous session, markets extended their losing streak for a second consecutive day, as rising geopolitical tensions and stalled US–Iran negotiations pushed crude oil prices above $100 per barrel, weighing on overall investor sentiment.

On Thursday, the 30-share benchmark index ended at 77664 down by -852.49 points or by -1.09 % and then NSE Nifty was at 24173.05 down by -205.05 points or by -0.84 %.

On the global front, most markets in the Asia-Pacific region declined as stalled US-Iran talks fueled concerns about prolonged disruptions to energy supplies from the Strait of Hormuz.

Meanwhile, traders cheered the ceasefire extension between Lebanon and Israel. Both countries agreed to extend the ceasefire by three weeks after a meeting with President Donald Trump and top officials at the White House. The Kospi and the Hang Seng declined 0.22 per cent and 0.45 per cent, respectively.
