  • Sensex surges 900 points on easing Iran war tensions and crude oil price drop
    March 25, 2026, 12:37 AM EDT. The S&P BSE Sensex jumped 927 points to 74,995.73, with the NSE Nifty50 rising 306 points to 23,219 amid hopes of easing tensions in the Iran conflict. Reports indicate the U.S. is working towards a month-long ceasefire and shared a 15-point plan with Iran, boosting investor confidence despite Iran denying direct talks. Brent crude prices fell over 4%, relieving inflation pressures and fueling gains across sectors. Asian markets also climbed nearly 2%, aiding momentum. Broad-based buying led by Realty, Metals, and Media sectors contrasted with weakness in IT stocks. Experts view the potential de-escalation and lower crude prices as key drivers for the rally, signaling improved market sentiment despite geopolitical risks.
