ensex Today, Nifty 50 | Stock Market Live Updates - Find here all the live updates related to Sensex, Nifty, BSE, NSE, share prices and Indian stock markets for 3rd August 2026
Benchmark indices staged a strong recovery last week, supported by easing geopolitical tensions, lower crude oil prices, renewed foreign institutional investor buying and encouraging Q1 FY27 corporate earnings.
Brent crude retreated significantly after briefly crossing US$100 per barrel in the previous week, following a temporary pause in hostilities between the United States and Iran, raising hopes of a diplomatic resolution.
Global risk sentiment also improved as investors assessed geopolitical developments alongside expectations for monetary policy after the US Federal Reserve maintained its policy stance.
Domestically, stock-specific action remained strong during the Q1 FY27 earnings season, while renewed FII buying after a prolonged phase of outflows and a nearly 16 per cent decline in India VIX further supported sentiment.
The Nifty advanced 2.59 per cent to close at 24,383.60, while the Sensex gained 2.68 per cent to settle at 78,094.64, marking the second consecutive monthly gain for both indices in July.
On the macroeconomic front, market participants will watch July Composite PMI and GST collection data for signals on the strength of domestic economic activity.
Globally, developments surrounding the US-Iran conflict, the stability of crude oil supplies through key shipping routes and evolving expectations for US monetary policy will continue to influence market sentiment
