tock Market today | Share Market Live Updates – Find here all the live updates related to Sensex, Nifty, BSE, NSE, share prices and Indian stock markets for 25th March 2026.
Indian equity benchmarks, Sensex and Nifty, opened firm on Wednesday, tracking improved global sentiment. At 9:26 a.m., the BSE Sensex was up 881 points at 74,949, while the NSE Nifty gained 299 points to 23,211.
Optimism around potential US-Iran negotiations has eased crude oil prices, lending support to equities. However, caution persists as Iran has denied formal talks, keeping geopolitical uncertainty elevated.
Domestic volatility has softened slightly but remains above recent averages, limiting aggressive positioning. Continued foreign institutional investor outflows also weigh on market confidence.
While broad-based buying and short covering have supported the rebound, the sustainability of gains will depend on clarity around geopolitical developments, crude price trends, and stabilisation in global risk sentiment.

Bitcoin holds above $70,000 as optimism over US–Iran de-escalation supports crypto market recovery
“Bitcoin is trading above the $70,000 level, with recent price action reflecting a shift in market sentiment as optimism around potential U.S.–Iran de-escalation supports crypto market. The rebound in broader crypto markets, alongside strength in altcoins, indicates that buyers are gradually regaining control after recent volatility.
While macro factors such as rising yields and oil-driven inflation have capped aggressive upside in the near term, Bitcoin’s ability to hold key support levels suggests underlying resilience. The market is transitioning from a reactive phase driven by geopolitical uncertainty to a more balanced environment where positive triggers are beginning to outweigh downside risks.
If this momentum sustains, the current structure points toward a continuation of the recovery, with Bitcoin likely to attempt a move higher as confidence improves across the crypto market. The recent pickup in buying interest signals that dips are being utilised as accumulation opportunities, reinforcing the broader bullish undertone.” – Avinash Shekhar, Co-Founder & CEO, Pi42

US stocks end lower on Middle East, rate worries; Indian markets rebound as ceasefire hopes lift sentiment
US stocks closed lower as worries over Middle East stability and interest rates showed up again. Dow fell 0.28%, S&P fell 0.37%, Nasdaq dropped 0.84% and the Small cap Russell 2000 outperformed with gains of 0.45%.
USD index moved a bit higher at 99.21, 10 year bonds held steady at 4.36% and cboe vix remained in the accelerated zone of close to 27.
Crude futures traded mildly lower amidst volatility as worries over Middle East persisted. WTI traded near 88.30, Brent in and out of 100.
Indian markets recovered some lost ground on hopes of a ceasefire in the Middle East. Sensex gained 1372 points and Nifty added almost 400 points to close above 22900. Most sectors gained on Tuesday as markets build hopes of a resolution in Iran US war.
*Weak Wall Street cues, mixed macros, truncated trading over next 5 days and year-end concerns may dominate trade set up on Dalal Street over next few sessions. Though participants may keenly watch developments in the Middle East and its impact on crude and global trades, pockets of valuation comfort may set some floor on individual names that may start looking at opportunities beyond Q4 results. Continue to build portfolio of quality names and once the cloud over Middle East settles a strong recovery in stock prices may be expected.

MNCL Research: Godawari Power & Ispat Ltd. (GPIL): Approves setting up of 1mntpa Integrated Steel Plant
Mcap: Rs177bn; CMP: Rs263; TP: Rs310; Rating: BUY
What happened: GPIL’s Board has approved the setting up of a 1mntpa integrated steel plant to manufacture iron & steel finished products (heavy & medium structural steel and wire rods). The plant will be located at Sarora, Tilda (Raipur, Chhattisgarh) with an estimated capex of ~Rs70bn, to be funded through a 1:1 debt–equity mix (including internal accruals). The project is expected to be completed in ~3.5 years i.e. 2HFY30.
Our view:
\u00091. The proposed steel plant marks a significant forward integration step for GPIL, moving further up the value chain from pellets/DRI to finished steel (structurals & wire rods). This should enhance value addition and reduce dependency on pellets which can be an over supplied market. GPIL already is approved by Power Grid Corp for use of its structural steel products in transmission projects.
\u00092. We expect an annual Cash flow from operation of Rs16-18bn on meaningful scale up of BESS and CRM business which should be sufficient to cater to the internal requirement of the capex, and should aid debt repayment post commissioning.
\u00093. While the BESS and CRM will take ~3years for complete scaleup, the Steel plant (starting FY30) will continue the growth momentum post the BESS/ CRM project. Remain positive on GPIL’s thesis of long term growth and value addition.
