BusinessSensex Drops Over 1,000 Points, Nifty Falls Below 22,850 Amid West Asia Conflict
On Monday, the Sensex fell over 1,000 points to below 72,900 and the Nifty 50 dropped more than 300 points to under 22,850 due to rising oil prices linked to the West Asia conflict. The stalled US-Iran negotiations over the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for 20% of global oil trade, heightened market fears. BSE market capitalization declined from Rs 483.25 lakh crore to Rs 477.08 lakh crore in early trade.
