India’s benchmark indices, the BSE Sensex and Nifty 50, witnessed a volatile trading session as early gains were erased due to rising crude oil prices and geopolitical uncertainty in West Asia. While both indices opened higher, investor sentiment turned cautious, leading to a reversal into negative territory. Gains in select banking and consumption stocks were offset by declines in technology and aviation shares. The mixed performance reflects broader market nervousness amid global headwinds, even as strong corporate earnings from key players provided limited support to the indices.
