  • Sensex, Nifty open lower as Brent crude prices surge on geopolitical tensions
    April 7, 2026, 12:50 AM EDT. The Indian stock market opened lower on Tuesday amid rising Brent crude oil prices, which climbed to USD 111.43 per barrel, up 1.51%, driven by escalating geopolitical tensions involving the United States and Iran. The BSE Sensex dropped 735.65 points (0.99%) to 73,371.20, while the NSE Nifty 50 fell 226.95 points (0.99%) to 22,741.30. Experts noted continued foreign institutional investor selling and key support levels near 22,700 for Nifty and 73,500 for Sensex as critical for market stability. The surge in oil prices raised concerns over inflation and India's import costs, dampening investor sentiment. Meanwhile, U.S. indices closed higher, extending gains to a fourth session.
