Stock markets decline in early trade dragged down by Oil & Gas shares, foreign fund outflows
Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty declined in initial trade on Tuesday, dragged down by selling in oil & gas shares and persistent foreign fund outflows. Investor sentiment was further dampened after US President Donald Trump threatened to impose higher tariffs on India over its purchases of Russian oil. The 30-share BSE Sensex declined by 315.03 points or 0.39 per cent to 80,703.69 in early trade. The 50-share NSE Nifty went lower by 41.80 points or 0.17 per cent to 24,680.95. Among the Sensex firms, BEL, HDFC Bank, Reliance Industries, ICICI Bank, Infosys, Hindustan Unilever, Adani Ports, Mahindra & Mahindra, Asian Paints, and Tata Steel were the major laggards. Maruti, State Bank of India, HCL Technologies, Axis Bank, UltraTech Cement, Tata Motors, Titan, NTPC and Bajaj Finance were among the gainers. 'The latest tweet from President Donald Trump that 'I will be substantially raising US tariffs on India' for buying Russian oil is a big threat. If he walks his talk, India-US relations will further strain, and the impact on India's exports to the US can be worse than thought earlier. 'India's GDP growth and corporate earnings in FY26 will also be impacted. The market, still trading at elevated valuations, has not discounted such an eventuality. It remains to be seen how things evolve. India's response, with facts, that 'Targeting India is unjustified and unreasonable' sends a message that India will not be making undue concessions and compromises,' VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Investments, said. This means the market is in uncharted territory in the near-term. If President Trump raises tariffs on India further, the market will react negatively. Investors may wait and watch for the developments to unfold, he added. In Asian markets, South Korea's Kospi, Shanghai's SSE Composite index, Hong Kong's Hang Seng and Japan's Nikkei 225 index were quoted in positive territory. The US markets ended higher on Monday. Global oil benchmark Brent crude dipped 0.33 per cent to USD 68.53 a barrel. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth Rs 2,566.51 crore while Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) outnumbered the FIIs by purchasing equities worth Rs 4,386.29 crore on Monday, according to exchange data. On Monday, the 30-share Sensex gained 418.81 points to settle at 81,018.72, and the NSE Nifty jumped by 157.40 points to close at 24,722.75.

Sensex tumbles 400 points: Why is the stock market falling today?
Benchmark stock market indices fell sharply in early trade on Tuesday as investor sentiment soured following renewed tariff threats from US President Donald Trump, who warned of penalties over India's continued oil imports from Tapse, Senior Vice President (Research) at Mehta Equities, had indicated that the markets may continue to see a 'subdued to weak opening' amid the lacklustre trend in Gift Nifty. advertisementWhile gains in other Asian indices could offer some support, Tapse warned that 'nervousness may persist' after Trump's fresh threat to hike tariffs on India. He noted that Nifty bulls are likely to remain hesitant below the 25,000 mark, and a close below 24,473 could deepen downside risks. It may be noted that investor anxiety intensified after Trump threatened to substantially increase tariffs on Indian goods in retaliation for India's ongoing crude oil purchases from Russia, part of a larger geopolitical flashpoint that now threatens trade VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, called the threat a 'big risk' to India-US trade relations. If implemented, he warned, such tariffs could have a cascading impact on India's exports to the US—particularly in sectors like textiles, pharmaceuticals, and engineering—and in turn drag down GDP growth and corporate earnings in FY26.'The market, still trading at elevated valuations, has not discounted such an eventuality,' Vijayakumar said. He added that India's strong response—calling the move 'unjustified and unreasonable'—indicates the government is unlikely to yield.'In the near term, markets are in uncharted territory and could react sharply if Nifty breaks its support at 24,500,' he said, advising investors to consider a partial shift to fixed-income assets as a geopolitical tensions and trade uncertainty dominating the narrative, analysts expect volatility to remain elevated throughout the week.(Disclaimer: The views, opinions, recommendations, and suggestions expressed by experts/brokerages in this article are their own and do not reflect the views of the India Today Group.
