Market Decline: Indian shares fell significantly, with the Nifty 50 and BSE Sensex dropping 1.21% and 1.2% respectively, driven by losses in oil and gas sectors amid escalating tensions in the Middle East due to Israeli military strikes on Iran.
Impact of Geopolitical Events: The market sentiment was further dampened by an Air India plane crash that resulted in numerous fatalities, contributing to a broader selloff across all sectors, while safe havens like gold gained value amidst fears of supply disruptions in oil.
