Stock Market Live Today: Concerns over potential earnings downgrades

"Domestic equity indices pared early gains to close in the red, despite an initial upswing fueled by optimism surrounding a temporary halt in U.S. military operations against Iran. IT stocks stood as a notable exception, registering robust advances on the back of anticipated tailwinds from an accelerating rupee depreciation and compelling valuations. Meanwhile, mid and small-caps quietly outshone their large-cap peers, drawing renewed buying interest after a meaningful correction.

While fourth-quarter earnings continue to underscore the resilience of domestic economic momentum, market focus is increasingly pivoting toward mounting inflationary pressures. Concerns over potential earnings downgrades for Q1FY27 are gaining traction, driven by higher-than-anticipated WPI readings, the gradual pass-through of elevated fuel prices, and persistently firm bond yields,” says Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited.

Stock Market Live Today: Market participants continue to prefer dollar buying

"Rupee traded weaker by around 10 paise near 96.53, as elevated crude oil prices and continued pressure on capital flows kept the currency under stress. Sustained higher crude prices are increasing concerns over India’s import bill and widening trade deficit, which is keeping sentiment weak for the rupee.

Market participants continue to prefer dollar buying and rupee selling as a hedge against ongoing volatility and external sector pressure. The broader trend remains weak, with rupee expected to trade in a range of 96.25–97.00 in the near term,” says Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst - Commodity and Currency, LKP Securities.

Nifty Today Live: Investors reluctant to take aggressive directional bets

"The index remained range-bound during the session as investors appeared reluctant to take any aggressive directional bets. On the upside, the index faced resistance near the 20 EMA, which triggered profit booking in the latter half of the session. The hourly RSI remains in a bearish crossover and continues to trend lower, indicating weakening momentum.

Overall sentiment is likely to remain tilted in favour of the bears in the short term. The 23800 zone continues to act as a crucial resistance level, and unless the index decisively moves above it, sellers may regain control at any point. On the downside, immediate support is placed at 23400, below which selling pressure could intensify further,” says Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities.

ICRA cuts India’s FY27 GDP growth forecast to 6.2% amid high crude oil prices

Rating agency ICRA has lowered India’s GDP growth forecast for FY27 to 6.2% from its earlier estimate of 6.5%, citing elevated crude oil prices due to the ongoing Middle East crisis.
For FY26, the agency projected GDP growth at 7.5%, slightly below the National Statistical Office’s second advance estimate of 7.6% for the fiscal year.

“ICRA now assumes crude oil prices to average at USD 95/bbl in FY27, against our prior estimate of USD 85/bbl, given the ongoing stickiness in prices amid the stalemate in West Asia. Consequently, we have pared our baseline forecast for the FY27 GDP growth (at constant 2022-23 prices) to 6.2 per cent from the 6.5 per cent expected earlier,” ICRA Chief Economist Aditi Nayar said.
The rating agency also said GDP growth in the fourth quarter is expected to ease to a three-quarter low of 7 per cent from 7.8 per cent in Q3 of 2025-26.

Sensex Today Live: SBI Securities Mid-Market Index View

The frontline indices continued their recovery as the volatility subsided as seen by a decline of over 5% in India VIX.

Coming to Nifty, the zone of 23600-23620 will act as a crucial support for the index while the resistance lies in the zone of 23850-23870.

On the downside, if the index slips below the level of 23600 then the next support is placed in the zone of 23400-23300.

In an event of a surge above 23870, the index can experience an extension of the rally towards 24070.

On the options front, meaningful call writing witnessed across 23800 & 23900 strikes. On the put side, 23700 has a substantial open interest, followed by 23600 strike.

Nifty's Advance Decline Ratio is at 31:18.

Speaking of Sensex levels, support is at 75,200 while resistance is at 76,000.

Sensex Today Live: IT stocks rally; TCS, Infosys rise

Shares of major Indian IT firms such as Infosys and TCS surged by as much as 5% on Tuesday, continuing the recovery seen in the previous trading session. The renewed buying interest in technology stocks follows a steep decline that had pushed valuations in the sector close to levels witnessed during the 2008–09 global financial crisis.

The Nifty IT index climbed over 4% during morning trade to hover around the 29,566 mark, even as the broader Nifty index posted only modest gains. Over the last three trading sessions, the sectoral index has advanced by more than 8%, translating into a rise of over 2,205 points.

Infosys emerged as the biggest gainer within the index, with its shares rallying nearly 5% to around Rs 1,198 on the NSE. The stock has now gained roughly 9% in the past three sessions, although it still remains down 27% for 2026 so far and nearly 10% lower over the last one month.

Other IT counters also witnessed strong buying momentum. Shares of Coforge, LTIMindtree, HCL Technologies, Mphasis, Persistent Systems and Tech Mahindra rose close to 4% each during Tuesday’s session. Oracle Financial Services Software (OFSS) and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) advanced more than 3%, while Wipro added over 2%.

Sensex Today Live: Adani Group stocks rise

Shares of several Adani Group firms, including Adani Enterprises, Adani Green, Adani Power, Adani Ports, Adani Energy and Adani Total Gas, climbed as much as 3.5% after the US Department of Justice withdrew all criminal charges against billionaire industrialist Gautam Adani and his nephew Sagar Adani, effectively ending the securities and wire fraud case filed in New York.

The development brought to a close a 19-month-long phase that had strained the group’s expansion plans, affected fundraising efforts and resulted in the loss of multiple contracts.

In a separate matter, the conglomerate also agreed to resolve civil allegations linked to sanctions violations with the US Treasury Department through a payment of $275 million, without admitting any wrongdoing. Those named in the proceedings included Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani, Sagar Adani, Vneet Jaain, Ranjit Gupta, Cyril Cabanes, Saurabh Agarwal, Deepak Malhotra and Rupesh Agarwal.

Nifty Today Live: Nifty50 outlook

Though dips stretched further than expected, bulls did regroup, and the momentum thereof was sufficient to reclaim 23600, our upside marker as well. This points to strength, encouraging us to start today with positive bias, as long as above 23600. Alternatively, inability to push beyond 23730 or a direct fall below 23489, will bring 22800 back into the radar, but a collapse is less expected,” says Anand James, Chief Market Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited.

Stock Market Live Today: Petrol, diesel prices raised

Petrol and diesel prices were increased by nearly 90 paise per litre on Tuesday, marking the second revision in fuel rates within a week after government-owned oil marketing companies resumed price adjustments following a freeze that had lasted close to four years.

With the latest hike, petrol prices in New Delhi climbed to Rs 98.64 per litre from Rs 97.77 earlier, while diesel rates rose from Rs 90.67 to Rs 91.58 per litre, according to industry officials.

This follows the Rs 3 per litre increase announced on Friday, the first such revision in over four years. State-run fuel retailers had earlier kept prices unchanged through several state elections despite mounting pressure from soaring international crude oil prices triggered by the Iran conflict. The recent revisions are aimed at partially offsetting losses incurred during the prolonged price freeze.

Fuel prices continue to differ from one state to another because of variations in value-added tax rates.

Meanwhile, compressed natural gas (CNG) prices have also seen consecutive increases. On May 15, rates were raised by Rs 2 per kg in cities such as Delhi and Mumbai, followed by another hike of Re 1 per kg on Sunday.

Sensex Today Live: ‘Valuations are becoming attractive in India’

"FIIs turning buyers, though not a trend yet, is an indication that valuations are becoming attractive in India. Also, the concerns of bubble valuations in AI stocks are increasing. If the FII buying becomes a trend, largecaps in financials, particularly in leading banks will be the segment to move up since their valuations are attractive and the segment has growth potential.

Broadly, at the macro level, the concerns surrounding growth, inflation and currency depreciation persist. Therefore, investors should focus on sectors which will be least impacted by these potential headwinds. Pharmaceuticals, power-related stocks and defence stocks will be least affected by a potential slowdown.

Q4 results have been good, in many cases better than expected. This is an indication that the economy had started to recover in response to the fiscal and monetary stimulus measures of last year, before getting impacted by the energy crisis. Therefore, if there is a quick resolution of the Hormuz crisis, the economy may recover fast and the slowdown expected this year will not be as severe as feared,” says VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited.

Sensex Today Live: Nifty50, BSE Sensex open in green

Stock market today: Nifty50 and BSE Sensex started the trading session on Tuesday on a positive note as crude oil prices dropped. At 9:16 AM, Nifty50 was at 23,711.55, up 62 points or 0.26%. BSE Sensex was trading at 75,590.35, up 275 points or 0.37%.

Sensex Today Live: Stock market likely to open on positive note

"Indian equity markets are expected to open on a mildly positive note, with Gift Nifty trading at 23,674, up by 57 points. Global equities may witness relief buying after reports suggested that former US President Donald Trump delayed potential military action against Iran following requests from Gulf nations including Saudi Arabia and the UAE. However, elevated crude oil prices and volatility levels continue to keep sentiment cautious.

In the previous session, The Nifty 50 recovered from sharp intraday losses and ended marginally higher by 0.03 percent on May 18. Despite the recovery, momentum indicators and oscillators remained weak, signalling continuation of short-term bearish undertones. Elevated India VIX and firm crude oil prices continue to remain key concerns for the market.

The directional indicators also remained bearish, with the DI- continuing to stay above the DI+, indicating that sellers still maintain dominance over the market. Momentum indicators continued to favour bears, with both RSI and MACD witnessing bearish crossovers, signalling weak momentum despite the intraday recovery.

According to technical observations, the Nifty is expected to trade within the 23,250–23,850 range in the near term. A decisive move above 23,850 may open the path toward the crucial resistance zone of 24,000–24,100. On the downside, sustaining below 23,400 could intensify selling pressure and drag the index toward 23,250 and then 23,100 levels.

Derivatives data indicates selective improvement in sentiment. The Nifty Put-Call Ratio (PCR) rose sharply to 1.24 on May 18 from 1.01 in the previous session, indicating fresh put writing activity and some support emerging at lower levels despite prevailing volatility.

India VIX, the market fear gauge, extended its upward move for another session and climbed 4.47 percent to 19.63. The volatility index remained above all key moving averages, signalling continued discomfort for bulls. Analysts believe that a move above the 20 mark could increase downside risks, while stability below 18 would be supportive for bullish sentiment.

Option chain positioning indicates immediate support near the 23,400–23,250 zone due to fresh put writing activity, while resistance is visible around the 23,800–24,000 zone where call writers continue to remain active.

The Nifty Bank also recovered from sharp intraday weakness but still closed 0.3 percent lower. The banking index filled the opening bearish gap and formed a bullish candle with a long lower wick, reflecting strong buying interest at lower levels.

Technically, Bank Nifty tested the 61.8 percent Fibonacci retracement level of the April rally during intraday trade and witnessed a rebound. However, the index continued to trade below the 50 percent Fibonacci retracement level and remained below all key moving averages, indicating weakness in the broader structure.

Immediate support for Bank Nifty is placed around 52,500–52,200, while resistance is seen near 54,400–54,700. A sustained move above resistance levels will be required to improve short-term sentiment in the banking index.

Overall, the technical setup suggests a mildly positive opening supported by easing geopolitical concerns, but the broader market structure remains cautious due to elevated volatility, weak momentum indicators, and persistent pressure near higher levels. Traders are likely to remain stock-specific with focus on key support levels and global developments,” says Aakash Shah, Technical Research Analyst at Choice Equity Broking Private Limited.

Nifty Today Live: Nifty & Bank Nifty view by SBI Securities

Nifty View

Going ahead, the immediate support for Nifty is placed in the 23500-23450 zone. Any sustainable move below this zone could result in Nifty extending its weakness towards 23300, followed by 23150 in the short term. On the upside, the immediate resistance for Nifty is placed in the 23850-23900 zone, which coincides with the 20-day EMA, says Sudeep Shah, Head - Technical and Derivatives Research at SBI Securities.

Bank Nifty View

Bank Nifty mirrored the movement seen in Nifty. The index opened with a gap-down and slipped to an intraday low of 52,783 before staging a strong recovery and erasing most of its losses to close at 53,537, down 0.32%.

A closer look at the Relative Rotation Graph (RRG) suggests that the PSU Bank index continues to remain in the lagging quadrant, indicating weak relative strength and momentum. In contrast, the Private Bank index has moved from the lagging quadrant into the improving quadrant, pointing towards a gradual improvement in momentum within the private banking space.

Going ahead, the immediate support for Bank Nifty is placed in the 53100-53000 zone. Any sustainable move below this zone could result in Bank Nifty extending its weakness towards 52700, followed by 52400 in the short term. On the upside, the immediate resistance for the Index is placed in the 53900-54000 zone, says Sudeep Shah.

Stock Market Live Today: Asian stocks cautious on Trump’s decision

Asian markets traded cautiously on Tuesday, while bond markets stabilised after a sharp selloff, as US President Donald Trump’s decision to halt a planned strike on Iran and his remarks hinting at the possibility of a nuclear agreement helped ease oil prices.

Trump said on Monday that he had put a proposed military strike against Iran on hold to allow space for negotiations aimed at ending the ongoing conflict, after Tehran reportedly sent a fresh peace proposal to Washington.

He later stated that there was a “very good chance” of the United States reaching an agreement with Iran to stop Tehran from developing nuclear weapons.
Despite this, investor sentiment remained fragile after markets were shaken during the previous session by a drone attack in the United Arab Emirates over the weekend.

“We've seen a lot of back and forth already,” IG market analyst Fabien Yip told Reuters.

“Until we actually see real action happening in the Strait of Hormuz, where ships are moving safely again and traffic through the route shows a meaningful recovery, markets are likely to remain unconvinced by statements coming from either side,” he added.

Following Trump’s comments, Brent crude dropped over 2% to $109.41 a barrel, while US crude slipped 1.3% to $107.25 per barrel. However, both benchmarks were still trading more than 50% above levels seen before the war began.

In equity markets, MSCI’s broad Asia-Pacific index excluding Japan declined 0.22%. Japan’s Nikkei gained 1%, while South Korea’s Kospi fell 2%.
Nasdaq futures erased early advances and traded 0.07% lower, while S&P 500 futures slipped 0.03%. In Europe, EUROSTOXX 50 futures rose 0.4%, while FTSE and DAX futures edged up 0.3% and 0.4%, respectively.

Investor focus is also shifting towards the artificial intelligence sector, with Nvidia set to announce earnings on Wednesday. Expectations remain extremely high for the world’s most valuable company.

“Nvidia’s earnings will serve as a major test for markets that are already trading near record levels and have staged an extraordinary rebound since the March lows,” said Richard Reyle, chief investment officer at Questar Capital Partners.

He added that Nvidia has effectively become the face of the AI-driven rally, which has played a central role in pushing markets higher over the past few years.

Nifty Today Live: Bajaj Broking Bank Nifty Outlook

Index formed a bullish candle with a lower high and lower low and shadows in either direction signaling consolidation with high volatility as the index tested the lower band of the gap area of 8th April and witnessed a rebound during the intraday session. Index holding above the key support area of 52,700-52,400 will lead to a pullback towards the recent breakdown area of 54,000 and 54,700 levels in the coming sessions.

However, Index need to form higher high and higher low on a sustained basis in the daily chart and a move above the breakdown area of 54,400-54,700 to signal a pause in the recent downtrend. Failure to do so will lead to consolidation in the range of 52,700-54,000. Key support is placed at 52,700-52,400 levels being the confluence of the lower band of the 8th April gap area and the 61.8% retracement of the previous pullback (49,955-57,456).

Sensex Today Live: Markets likely to be event-driven

Siddhartha Khemka - Head of Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd says, “Markets are likely to remain event-driven in the near term, with volatility expected to persist amid elevated crude oil prices near USD 106 per barrel, continued weakening rupee (touched new low of 96.2 against the US dollar), rising bond yields and mounting inflationary concerns are collectively creating a challenging backdrop for domestic equities. While domestic earnings and economic activity remain relatively resilient, investors are increasingly concerned about the second-order impact of elevated energy prices on inflation, fiscal balances, liquidity conditions and the RBI’s future policy trajectory. India’s wholesale inflation surged to 8.3% YoY in April, reflecting sharp increases in fuel, power, metals and manufactured product prices, indicating that upstream cost pressures are steadily building within the economy.

Although headline CPI inflation remains contained at 3.5%, sustained elevated crude prices, rising transportation costs and potential supply-side disruptions could gradually transmit into broader retail inflation over the coming quarters. In our view, RBI may initially continue managing inflationary pressures through tighter liquidity conditions. However, the probability of interest rate hikes or a delay in future rate cuts could increase if inflation trends continue to deteriorate. Simultaneously, persistent rupee depreciation, widening trade deficit concerns and continued foreign outflows suggest growing macroeconomic stress. We expect the Indian 10-year government bond yield to gradually move higher toward 7.5% by March 2027, while the rupee could remain under pressure in the near term, particularly if crude oil prices continue to sustain at elevated levels.”

Stock Market Live Today: Rupee ended at record low yesterday

The Indian rupee extended its losses on Monday and settled at a fresh record low of 96.20 against the US dollar, weighed down by rising crude oil prices amid persistent geopolitical tensions and continued strength in the dollar.

Forex market participants said investor sentiment globally remains under pressure due to ongoing tensions between the United States and Iran.
Traders added that emerging economies such as India are facing additional strain from elevated crude oil prices, as higher energy costs are increasing dollar outflows alongside existing foreign portfolio investor withdrawals.

In the interbank foreign exchange market, the rupee opened at 96.19 against the greenback and later slipped further to 96.39 during the session, marking a decline of 58 paise from the previous close.

By the end of trading on Monday, the domestic currency settled at 96.20 per US dollar, down 39 paise compared with Friday’s closing level.

On Friday, the rupee had breached the 96-per-dollar mark during intraday trade before ending at an all-time closing low of 95.81 against the US currency.

Stock Market Live Today: Sensex round-up from Monday’s session

Benchmark equity indices Sensex and Nifty managed to close slightly in the green on Monday after recovering from steep intraday declines, aided by bargain buying in IT shares and a few heavyweight blue-chip stocks.

Market gains, however, remained limited due to the weakening rupee against the US dollar and a rise in global crude oil prices amid intensifying tensions in West Asia, traders said.

After witnessing highly volatile trading through the session, the 30-share BSE Sensex ended 77.05 points, or 0.10 per cent, higher at 75,315.04. During the day, the index had plunged as much as 1,134.78 points, or 1.50 per cent, to touch 74,180.26.

On the BSE, declining stocks significantly outnumbered advancing ones, with 3,034 shares ending lower, 1,264 gaining and 194 remaining unchanged.
The NSE Nifty 50 also finished with modest gains, rising 6.45 points, or 0.03 per cent, to settle at 23,649.95.

Nifty Today Live: Bajaj Broking Nifty Outlook

Index in the daily chart formed a bullish candle with a lower high and a lower low and shadows in either direction. Nifty witnessed a strong pullback after a gap down opening as index continues to consolidate amid stock specific action. Going ahead, index holding above Monday’s low (23,317) will keep the pullback intact and retesting of the breakdown area of 23,800-23,900 is likely in the coming sessions.

However, Index need to form higher high and higher low on a sustained basis in the daily chart and a move above the breakdown area of 23,800-23,900 to signal a pause in the recent downtrend. Failure to do so will lead to extension of the last 4 sessions consolidation in the range of 23,200-23,900. Nifty has key support at 23,200-23,000 levels being the confluence of the lower band of the 8th April bullish gap area and the 61.8% retracement of the previous pullback (22,182-24,601).

Stock Market Highlights Today: Asian equities edged up while oil prices declined after US President Donald Trump said he had temporarily paused additional military action, raising hopes of a possible agreement that could ease tensions and restore energy movement through the Strait of Hormuz.

Crude prices dropped more than 2 per cent in early Asian trading on Tuesday after Donald Trump said he had put a planned strike on Iran on hold to create room for diplomatic negotiations aimed at ending the Middle East conflict.

The Nasdaq ended Monday’s session in the red as investors booked profits amid rising Treasury yields and elevated crude oil prices, reviving concerns that inflation and borrowing costs could remain high for an extended period.
