  • Nifty50 Opens Above 23,200, BSE Sensex Gains Over 700 Points Amid Market Recovery
    March 20, 2026, 12:25 AM EDT. India's stock markets rebounded Friday after Thursday's steep selloff. Nifty50 opened above 23,200, up 227 points (0.99%), while the BSE Sensex climbed 738 points to 74,945.45. The sharp drop followed escalating tensions in West Asia, which fueled a global risk-off mood and pushed crude oil prices higher. Confidence was shaken but now recovers as Israeli officials signaled no further strikes on Iran's oil infrastructure, easing Brent crude prices to $106 from $118. Financial and auto stocks, hit hard earlier, are set for gains. Foreign investors continued net selling, offloading equities worth Rs 7,558 crore, yet domestic funds countered with buying support. Asian markets rose on easing oil prices and US market rebounds despite Wall Street's prior losses. Analysts caution ongoing volatility as geopolitical risks persist.
