Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates: It is past 12, with the second half of the session ahead; the market remains under pressure, and the street hopes to close the week in green. The Nifty index is down nearly 150 points, falling below the 24,200 mark. The Sensex index is also down 450 points, slumping to 77,400.

For the Nifty, 24,500 is the first hurdle to cross, while 24,000 on the downside remains a support. The Nifty Bank, though, will be the index to watch owing to SBI's and BoB's results.

The Nifty bulls, amidst all of this, would aim to end the week with gains and protect lower levels. Oil prices are back to gaining ways after the latest flare-up between the US and Iran.

Brent is back above $100 a barrel. The big trigger of the day, though, would be results from India's largest lender, State Bank of India (SBI).

Apart from SBI, Bank of Baroda, Hyundai Motor India, Titan, Tata Consumer, and many other stocks also report results today.
