Stock Market Crash LIVE Updates: Nifty falls over 200 points, turns negative for October

Stock Market Crash LIVE Updates: The markets are struggling to hold to minor gains as the bulls fight to end the Friday session on a high, even as the week looks all set to be in red. The Nifty is looking to cross the 22,800 points. The Sensex index is faring slightly better, rising above 200 points, reaching the 73,500 mark.

Multiple Nifty 50 and broader market companies report results today. It is also the final day to subscribe to the Jio Platforms IPO, which has already received bids worth over ₹1 lakh crore. For the Nifty, the lows of Wednesday and Thursday - 22,649 and 22,554 will be the most important to watch on the downside, while any recovery towards the 22,800 - 22,900 zone could see supply emerge.

The Nifty Bank remains in its 1,000-point range of 54,500 - 55,500. A major impediment to any recovery is crude, with Brent now above $113 a barrel. Keep an eye on the IT names after the AI sell-off, along with names like Swiggy, Infosys, PSU Banks, and crude-sensitive stocks like ONGC & Oil India, along with the OMCs, apart from the usual result reactions.
