Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates: It's 12:00 and we enter the second half of the day's trade. At this noon, the markets are under pressure but are looking to improve their shape, as the markets remain in balance over the war in Iran and the weak results from HCLTech.
The Nifty is down over 150 points, falling towards the 24,400 mark. The Sensex is down over 550 points, falling towards the 78,700 point.
Nifty is under pressure after crossing important levels of 24,300 and 24,500. The index to watch today, though, will be the Nifty IT after HCLTech's disappointing results. As a result of the bad numbers, HCLTech is down over 9%.
For the Nifty, sustaining above 24,600 is key to open up levels of 24,700, 24,854 and 24,989 on the upside.
The Nifty Midcap is outperforming all the other indices.
Also watch for stocks like Trent, Tata Elxsi, 360 ONE WAM, Cyient DLM, Aurobindo Pharma, Hindustan Zinc and others.
