Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates:

Confirming concerns, the GIFT Nifty is trading with cuts indicating a negative start to the indices. The Indian equities begin the new trading week amidst escalating geopolitical tensions in West Asia. The US joining the attacks against Iran with Israel has impacted global equities, but not as badly as feared.

The Dow futures have trimmed early losses to 130 points, while Brent Crude, having tested levels of $81 per barrel in early trade, failed to sustain those levels. However, rising oil prices and the fears of Iran's retaliation could have a dampener in sentiment on Dalal Street.

Oil stocks will continue to remain in focus even as Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri assured that India has multiple sources to import oil and companies have enough supply in place.

Friday's trading session saw the Nifty close above 25,100 in a rebound from Thursday's sell-off and a combination of various rebalancing exercises that took place towards the close of trading. Along with oil stocks, defence as a pocket will continue to remain in focus, along with Indian IT companies, after Accenture reported results last Friday and the stock ended 7% lower in regular trading.
