Equity Alert: Indices in Asia end off lows as Saudi Aramco offers oil supply
MUMBAI--1435 IST--Equity indices in Asia recovered partially from the fall earlier in the day after petroleum and natural gas company Saudi Aramco offered more than 4 million barrels of crude oil on the spot market through a rare series of tenders. Among major indices, South Korea's KOSPI recovered slightly from its 8?ll but closed nearly 6% lower. Japan's Nikkei 225 closed 5.2% lower, recovering slightly from a 7?cline earlier in the day.
Following the announcement by Saudi Aramco, oil prices moderated after a sharp increase Monday. At 1428 IST, the May futures contract of Brent Crude was at $107.40 per barrel, down from the day's high of $119.50 per barrel. Oil prices had spiked after key manufacturers in West Asia such as Kuwait, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates paused production due to the disruption of trade following the shutting of the Strait of Hormuz.
China's CSI 300 index fell the least among its benchmark peers in the region, ending 1% lower. China is reported to have built a large stockpile of crude oil and cultivated diversified sources of energy, according to CNBC, making it less susceptible to oil price volatility due to the military conflict in West Asia.

Equity Alert: Indices remain weak on fall in shares of banks, automobile cos
MUMBAI--1359 IST--Indices remained weak, weighed down by fall in shares of banks and automobile companies. Surge in crude oil prices affected market sentiment negatively. Moreover, the rupee depreciated to a record low against the dollar. The Nifty 50 was weighed down by banking heavyweights HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank. They fell 2% and nearly 3%, respectively. Shares of State Bank of India, which fell over 5%, also weighed on the 50-stock index.
At 1354 IST, the Nifty 50 was at 23900.05 points, down 550.40 points or 2.3%. The BSE Sensex was at 77133.97 points, down 1784.93 points or 2.3%.
The rupee fell to a record low of 92.3420 against the dollar because of rising crude oil prices due to escalation in the West Asia conflict. At 1348 IST, the rupee was at 92.30 against a dollar, down 0.6%.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries was the top gainer among the Nifty 50 constituents. The stock was up nearly 1%. Wipro rose nearly 0.6%. Shares of Apollo Hospitals Enterprises, Max Healthcare Institute, and Cipla rose 0.1-0.3%. On the other hand, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles was the worst hit. The stock was down 6%. Shares of its peers Mahindra & Mahindra, Maruti Suzuki India, Eicher Motors, and Bajaj Auto were down 4-5%. Shares of financial services companies Jio Financial Services, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Bajaj Finance, Shriram Finance, and Bajaj Finserv were down 2-4%.
Aurobindo Pharma was the top gainer in the Nifty 200 index. The stock was up over 1%. Shares of Avenue Supermarts, Tata Communications, and Torrent Pharmaceuticals rose around 1?ch. In contrast, Hindustan Petroleum Corp. was the worst hit in the index. The stock fell over 6% to a six-month low of INR 370.15.
PG Electroplast was the worst hit in the Nifty 500. The stock fell over 12?ter the company said its gas supplier had voiced inability to meet supply requirements because of maritime navigation restrictions given the war in West Asia. Meanwhile, Emcure Pharmaceuticals was the top gainer in the Nifty 500. The stock was up 8%. (Adhithya Aji)
Equity Alert: AC cos to take further price hikes to offset high input costs
MUMBAI--1334 IST--Listed air conditioner makers such as Voltas, Blue Star, and LG Electronics hiked prices ahead of the peak summer season due to an increase in input costs, weakening rupee, rising freight expenses, and also to comply with the new energy efficiency norms. JM Financial expects all the brands to pass on a significant portion of the higher input costs to customers through phased price hikes. This step is in line with the comments made by the management in their respective conference calls post the December quarter earnings.
Revised energy efficiency norms imply a 5-10% rise in costs for 3-star and 5-star stock keeping units, JM Financial said. Besides, the increase in copper prices would weigh. The 40% on-year jump in LME copper prices implies an incremental 6–7% increase in input costs, taking the total increase to 11–17?ross products. "Impact on the end consumer, though, may be lower given the GST cut in Sep'25 brought down ASPs (average selling prices) by 7–8%," the broking firm said.
However, ICICI Direct expects the price hikes to largely offset the benefit of a cut in goods and services tax for air conditioners announced in September last year. "Manufacturers are largely passing on the higher input costs to consumers to protect margins," ICICI Direct said in a report. The brokerage expects industry demand to remain resilient as room AC purchases are largely impulse-driven during periods of extreme heat, making overall demand heavily dependent on the intensity of summer. "Further, El Nio conditions later this year could lead to warmer temperatures, which could support demand for air conditioners," ICICI Direct said.
JM Financial's AC channel checks revealed that the sales had a muted offtake in January and February, however, the momentum is seen improving. In January, LG Electronics was the sole brand with newly-rated products available in the channel. Currently, with both deals and online channels put together, JM Financial noted that Blue Star, Samsung, Midea, and Daikin have also launched their 2026-rating compliant products, with 5-6% hike in prices.
The next round of hikes is likely to be considered closer to March end, depending on the intensity of the summer, which shall determine the channel's acceptance of higher prices, JM Financial said. For the summer, the brokerage preferred Voltas over Blue Star, estimating potential upside risk to margin, which has been a key concern. "Voltas has now withdrawn channel support incentives, a positive trigger for its margins," the broking firm said. (Gopika Balasubramanium)
Equity Alert: Auto, auto ancillary stocks tumble; Nifty Auto hits 6-mo low
MUMBAI--1230 IST--Shares of most automobile and auto ancillary companies fell sharply, with the Nifty Auto index falling to a six-month low of 25733.50 points. Shares of these companies fell amid concerns that shortage of natural gas amid rising tensions in West Asia could potentially lead to a halt in production of these companies, according to analysts.
Friday, Informist citing a senior official at Gujarat Gas Ltd. had exclusively reported that Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles is facing an acute shortage of natural gas and propane at its Sanand plants and may be forced to cut production by up to 50%. Gujarat Gas supplies gas to the Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles units at Sanand. The gas is used to heat paint-shop ovens. Following this, there are concerns that other automobile companies may also face similar production cuts.
Further, a prolonged instability in the supply of natural gas is also expected to impact Taiwan's energy-intensive chip industry, leading to potential shortages of chips and, therefore, an increase in their prices. The chip shortage in the auto sector could lead to reduced vehicle production and higher input costs, a CNBC TV18 report said citing analysts.
At 1220 IST, the Nifty Auto index was at 25846.70 points, down 4.5% from the previous close. This was way below the support level of 26480–26500 points pegged by a technical analyst Friday for the sectoral index this week. Now, the auto index is seen finding support at 25600 points and below that at 25100 points, the analyst said. On the higher side, the index is expected to see resistance above 26480–27000 points, he added.
Uno Minda was the worst hit in the Nifty Auto index, falling over 6%. Shares of Maruti Suzuki India, Tube Investments Of India, Mahindra & Mahindra, Samvardhana Motherson International, Bharat Forge, and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles were down 4.9-5.6% and among the top laggards in the auto index.

Equity Alert: UBS downgrades, cuts target prices of oil marketing cos
MUMBAI--1305 IST--Global brokerage UBS downgraded several oil marketing companies amid the ongoing war in West Asia, which has resulted in a surge in crude oil prices. The brokerage downgraded Indian Oil Corp. and Bharat Petroleum Corp. to 'neutral' and Hindustan Petroleum Corp. to 'sell' after crude oil prices breached the $100 per barrel mark, according to several media reports.
The brokerage has cut its 2026-27(Apr-Mar) marketing margin estmates of domestic oil manufacturing companies by 43% and its FY28 margin estimates by 45%. However, UBS raised its FY27 gross refining margins by 30%. The brokerage also rolled forward its valuation to FY28 and lowered its target prices on these oil marketing companies. The target price for Indian Oil Corp. was slashed to INR 175 from INR 190. The brokerage cut its target price on Bharat Petroleum Corp. to INR 365 from INR 425, and for Hindustan Petroleum Corp. to INR 340 from INR 540.
The combined refining and marketing margins for state-owned oil marketing companies are negatively levered to increases in crude prices given the limited scope of retail fuel price and taxation changes, and rupee depreciation, the brokerage said. "OMCs' (oil marketing companies) higher leverage to marketing also means they lose out if profits shift from marketing to refining," Business Standard reported, quoting the brokerage. "This drives a cut of 19% in FY27 profit after tax for Indian Oil Corp., Bharat Petroleum Corp., and Hindustan Petroleum Corp.," the brokerage said.
The brokerage has also raised its near-term oil price forecasts. In the base case, UBS expects disruption in crude oil transportation to persist for the next couple of weeks, albeit without any damage to infrastructure, followed by a partial resumption of flows but with a sustained risk premium. At constant crude prices, an increase in refining margins translates to an equal decline in marketing margins, and vice versa, the brokerage said.
Retail fuel prices in India have been largely stable since May 2022, even as global oil prices remained volatile. Any hike in prices of petrol and diesel will be short-lived, the brokerage said. However, UBS expects some relief for oil marketing companies from the recent liquefied natural gas price hike. If crude oil prices are at $85 per barrel and each US dollar is worth INR 92, it will translate to integrated margins of INR 4–5 per litre for these companies, as compared to INR 13–14 per litre in FY25.
At 1254 IST, the May futures contract of Brent Crude traded 15.5% higher at $107 per barrel. Shares of Hindustan Petroleum Corp., Bharat Petroleum Corp., and Indian Oil Corp. were down 5–6% on the NSE. (Eshitva Prakash)
Equity Alert: Indices off day's lows as crude oil prices edge lower
MUMBAI--1201 IST--Indices came off intraday lows as crude oil prices edged lower after media reports said that G7 finance ministers will meet Monday to discuss the release of emergency oil reserves. Earlier Monday, the Nifty 50 slipped to a low of 23697.80 points, its lowest level since April. The 50-stock index was weighed down by heavyweights ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank. These stocks were down nearly 3% and 2%, respectively.
At 1210 IST, the Nifty 50 was at 23845.15 points, down 605.30 points, or 2.5% and the BSE Sensex was at 76966.55 points, down 1952.35 points or 2.5%.
Information technology shares HCL Technologies and Wipro were the sole gainers in the Nifty 50 index. These stocks rose around 1?ch. On the other hand, State Bank of India was the worst hit stock in the index. It was down over 5%. Banking stocks were the major laggards as a rapid rise in oil prices exacerbated fears of higher inflation and higher government bond yields impacting their treasury income. Shares of Shriram Finance, Jio Financial Services, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Bajaj Finance, and Bajaj Finserv were down 2-4%. Automobile companies Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, Maruti Suzuki India, Mahindra & Mahindra, Eicher Motors, and Bajaj Auto were down 4-5% as well.
Group of Seven finance ministers will meet Monday to discuss the release of emergency oil reserves amid surging prices. The joint release will be coordinated by the International Energy Agency, Financial Times reported. Following this news, the May futures of Brent crude oil came off highs and at 1159 IST were trading at $108.03 per barrel, up nearly 17% from the previous close. Before the media reports, crude prices were up around 27%.
All the broader market indices were in the red, down around 3?ch. The Nifty Midcap 100, which fell nearly 3%, was weighed down by shares of Bharat Forge. The stock was down 5%. The Nifty Midcap 150, down nearly 3%, was weighed down by the shares of Bank of Maharashtra, which fell over 6%.
All the sectoral indices were down as well. Nifty PSU Bank was the worst hit among them, down nearly 5%. Shares of Bank of Maharashtra, State Bank of India, Union Bank of India, Bank of India, and Indian Bank fell 5–6% and weighed down the index.
In the Nifty 200 index, shares IT companies Persistent Systems, LTIMindTree, and HCL Technologies gained around 1?ch. In contrast, Hindustan Petroleum Corp. was the worst hit stock in the index and fell nearly 7%. In the Nifty 500 index, Sonata Software was top gaining stock, up nearly 4% and Tejas Networks was the worst hit stock, down over 7%. (Adhithya Aji)
Equity Alert: PG Electroplast falls 13%; co says facing LPG supply shortage
MUMBAI--1215 IST--Shares of PG Electroplast fell over 13% to hit an over one-month low of INR 527.75. While the stock has been lower since the session began, the decline was more pronounced after the company said the allocation of liquefied petroleum gas under its gas sale and purchase agreements have been constrained from Monday.
The company's suppliers had reached out regarding a shortage of gas, caused by supply constraints due to maritime navigation restrictions amid the ongoing war in West Asia. The company said it is assessing the situation with respect to any supply curtailment that may need to be imposed on its downstream customers. It is also exploring alternative sources for unaffected production.
At 1225 IST, shares of the company were almost 11% lower after hitting a lower circuit at 10%. Around 3.5 million shares of the company have changed hands on the NSE so far, up nearly five-fold from the number of shares traded till the same time Friday. All the four brokerage recommendations available with Informist on the company have a 'buy' call and the average target price is INR 758. (Eshitva Prakash)
Equity Alert: Banks, fincl svcs cos shrs fall amid fears of higher inflation
MUMBAI--1056 IST--Shares of most banking and financial services companies plunged Monday as a rapid rise in oil prices exacerbated fears of accelerating inflation and higher government bond yields impacting their treasury income, analysts said. At 1050 IST, the Nifty PSU Bank, Nifty Bank, Nifty Financial Services and Nifty Private Bank were down 3.5–6.3%.
Monday, crude oil prices surged around 29% to $119.5 per barrel amid widening conflict in West Asia and with major West Asian oil producers cutting their output due to the shutdown of the key Strait of Hormuz. This has flared up fears of higher inflation, a weak rupee, and a widening current account deficit. A prolonged crisis in West Asia could have material implications for the rupee's exchange rate and the country's current account deficit and may also stoke inflationary pressures, the Ministry of Finance on Friday said in its Monthly Economic Review for February.
Higher inflation could lead to lower consumption and hence lower credit growth for financial companies, Anand Dama, head of banking, financial services, and insurance research at Emkay Global Financial Services said. Additionally, there are fears of higher government bond yields impacting the treasury income of public sector banks, Dama added.
At 1053 IST, shares of State Bank of India, Shriram Finance, Axis Bank, Jio Financial Services, Bajaj Finserv, Bajaj Finance, HDFC Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank were down 2–6% and were among the worst hit in the Nifty 50 index. (Arya S. Biju)
Equity Alert: Aviation cos down on US-Iran hostilities, surging oil prices
MUMBAI--1045 IST--Shares of Indian airline companies – InterGlobe Aviation and SpiceJet-- fell sharply Monday amid ongoing hostilities in West Asia and a surge in crude oil prices. InterGlobe Aviation fell over 8% to an over-one-year low of INR 4,035. SpiceJet also fell over 8% to an all-time low of INR 12.85.
The military conflict in West Asia, which began on Feb. 28, has disrupted the aviation sector with widespread airspace closures hurting international flight operations, Emkay Global Financial Services said. The IndiGo operator's 45% of available seat kilometres was hit, leading to the cancellation of around 160 daily flights between Mar. 1 and Mar. 3, according to the brokerage. "Cancellations continue amid the escalating conflict, but have moderated to around 130–140 daily flights currently," Emkay said.
Moreover, the escalating conflict has led to a surge in crude oil prices, which could translate to higher aviation turbine fuel prices. Higher fuel prices can weigh on the margins of airline companies. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the shutdown of Ras Tanura Refinery, and disruptions of oilfields in Iraq have pushed oil prices down, while jet fuel cracks have more than doubled, Emkay said.
The May Futures of Brent Crude Oil hit the highest level since June 2022, which is $119.50 per barrel. Since the combined attack of the US and Israel on Iran, oil prices have risen nearly 64%. At 1038 IST, May Futures of Brent Crude Oil were at $116.71 per barrel, up nearly 26% from the previous close.
At 1040 IST, shares of InterGlobe Aviation were at INR 4,114.70, down nearly 7%. The stock was worst hit among the Nifty 50 constituents. The stock has shed 9% over a period of seven days. Shares of SpiceJet were at INR 13.26, down over 5%. The stock of SpiceJet has fallen nearly 13% over the last seven days.
On Sunday, flight operations at Dubai Airport were suspended after debris from an intercepted drone fell near the airport's terminal, Times of India reported. Media reports said that Mehrabad Airport in Iran also came under attack. (Adhithya Aji)
Equity Alert: Indices slump on global cues; crude price near $120 /bbl
MUMBAI--1000 IST--Domestic benchmark indices opened sharply lower Monday on negative global cues, with crude oil prices touching nearly $120 per barrel. Indices on Wall Street had ended lower Friday and Asian markets too were down Monday. Financial services and automobile stocks were the major laggards.
At 0942 IST, the Nifty 50 was at 23764.65 points, down 685.80 points or 2.8% and the BSE Sensex was at 76658.71 points, down 2260.19 points or 2.9%.
The Nifty is likely to fall to 23535 points, which would complete a 61.8 retracement of the upmove since March 2025, according to Geojit Investments. If the index breaches this level, the next support would be 22000 points, which is the lowest level in one year, and 19000 points, which is the lowest level since November 2023, the brokerage said. "Near term upside prospects depend on the ability to float above 24000 (points)," Geojit Investments said in a note.
Coal India and Reliane Industries were the sole gainers in the 50-stock index. These stocks rose nearly 1% and 0.4% respectively. InterGlobe Aviation is the worst hit stock in the index. It tumbled nearly 8%. Financial services companies Shriram Finance, Jio Financial Services, Bajaj Finance, Bajaj Finserv, and State Bank of India were down 3-5%. Automakers shares Mahindra & Mahindra, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, Maruti Suzuki India, Eicher Motors, and Bajaj Auto were down 3-6%.
Coal India and Reliance Industries were the only gainers in the Nifty 200 as well, while InterGlobe Aviation was the worst hit stock. Oil refining companies, Bharat Petroleum Corp., Hindustan Petroleum Corp., and Indian Oil Corp. were the worst hit stocks in both the Nifty 200 and Nifty 500 indices, down 7–8%. These stocks fell on the back of rising crude oil prices.
The May futures of Brent Crude Oil touched a new high of $119.50 Monday. This is the highest level since June 2022. Oil prices have been surging on the back of the escalating military action of the US and Israel on Iran. The crude oil prices have surged nearly 64% since the beginning of hostilities in West Asia after the US and Israel launched a combined attack on Iran on Feb. 28. At 0939 IST, the May Futures of Brent Crude Oil was at $116.12 per barrel, up 25% from the previous close.
Only three stocks in the Nifty 500 were traded higher. Praj Industries was the top gainer, rising 3%. Balrampur Chini Mills and Avenue Supermarkets were up 0.3?ch. (Adhithya Aji)
Equity Alert: Asian indices slump as Brent crude nears $120; Kospi falls 8%
MUMBAI--0828 IST--Asian indices slumped on Monday as the US-Iran war pushed oil prices near $120 per barrel stoking fears of increase in living costs. Monday, South Korea's Kospi plunged over 8% and triggered its second circuit breaker in four sessions after falling nearly 11% last week. Trading was paused last time on Wednesday when the index fell 12%. Japan's indices too showed sharp declines as Nikkei and Topix fell 7% and 5.8%, respectively.
Continuing hostilities in West Asia have threatened global oil supplies as the strategically significant key Strait of Hormuz remains shut as the war enters its second week. Kuwait, Iraq, and United Arab Emirates announced cuts in oil production which sent oil futures soaring past the highs of the last week. Brent crude for May delivery surged 29% in Asian trade Monday to $119.50, hitting its highest since Jun. 29, 2022.
Amidst the uncertainties, investors sought reprieve in the US dollar and turned away from currencies of countries that are net importers of oil, Reuters reported. "Asia takes the brunt of the sharp escalation in oil prices and there are few places to run and hide," head of macro research Asia ex-Japan at Mizuho, Vishnu Varathan told Reuters. "The dollar has to be the one outperforming, given Japan and Korea's exposures here and the sharp pain that can be expected from Brent..."

Equity Alert: Indices may open sharply lower as oil surges over $118/barrel
MUMBAI--0815 IST--Benchmark equity indices are expected to open sharply lower Monday as oil prices surged past the crucial $100-per-barrel level amid the escalating conflict in West Asia. Equity markets across the Asia-Pacific region opened lower Monday as a rapid rise in oil prices exacerbated fears of accelerating inflation and faster pace of interest-rate increases by central banks across the globe.
The May futures contract of Brent Crude Oil soared 28% to $118.73 a barrel Monday, as the widening conflict between Iran and the US-Israel combine fuelled fears of tighter supply and prolonged disruptions to shipments through the Strait of Hormuz. The $100-per-barrel mark has been widely seen as a key psychological threshold for oil prices. A prolonged stay above the level is expected to raise concerns of macro deterioration and higher inflation. Since the start of the conflict on Feb. 28, oil prices have surged over 60%.
The hostilities in West Asia entered their tenth day Monday, with no signs of abatement. Pakistan and India face the highest economic risks among major emerging markets from the Iran conflict, Bloomberg reported, citing BMI, a unit of Fitch Solutions. The BMI analysts calculated relative risk scores based on total trade through Strait of Hormuz, foreign exchange reserves coverage, energy subsidies and budget balance, giving Pakistan the highest tally of 68.8 out of 100, followed closely by India at 66.9, the report said.
The GIFT Nifty indicates a sharp gap-down open for the Nifty 50. At 0803 IST, the March contract of GIFT Nifty traded at 23729.50 points, over 700 points lower than Nifty 50's previous close. "Nifty 50 should open 2-3% gap down due to sharp rise in crude oil prices," Sunny Agrawal, head of research at SBICAP Securities said. He expects oil marketing, tyres, paints, and airline companies to remain under pressure. (Arya S. Biju)
Equity Alert: US futures down 2% as crude oil prices breach $100/bbl
MUMBAI--0745 IST--US futures fell nearly 2% as the war in West Asia pushed crude oil prices over $100 per barrel for the first time in years. Futures contracts of the Dow Jones industrial average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq 100 were down over 2?ch at 0704 IST. On Friday, all three indices had closed in the red, with the Nasdaq Composite witnessing the steepest fall at 1.6%.
As hostilities between the US-Israel and Iran entered its 10th day, investors on Wall Street weighed its impact on energy supply across the world. On Sunday, US President Donald Trump said the rise in "short-term oil prices" was a "very small price to pay" for destroying the nuclear threat in Iran. At 0736 IST, Brent crude May futures were at $113.82 per barrel, up more than 23%.
Major West Asian oil producers cut their output due to the shutdown of the key Strait of Hormuz, leading to the jump in oil futures Sunday night, CNBC reported. On Friday, Qatar's energy minister told the Financial Times that oil prices could hit $150 per barrel if the coflict in West Asia continues, further spooking the sentiment on Wall Street.
Further, disappointing data on non-farm payrolls in the US stoked anxieties of a slowdown in the economy. The data showed the US lost jobs in February and the unemployment rate increased to 4.4%, higher than the expectations of 4.3%. Investors will closely monitor data releases on inflation, employment and gross domestic product, due this week.
