Sensex Falls 100 Points, Nifty Below 22,950 as Trump’s Iran Deadline Keeps Markets on Edge

Indian stock markets slipped on Tuesday, with the Sensex falling around 100 points and the Nifty dropping below 22,950, as investors turned cautious ahead of a key geopolitical deadline set by U.S. President Donald Trump regarding Iran.

The decline is mainly driven by three factors. First, rising tensions between the US and Iran, as Trump warned of possible strikes if a deal is not reached. Second, crude oil prices hovering around $110–$112 per barrel, which raises inflation concerns for India. Third, profit booking by investors after recent market gains, adding further pressure on indices.

Overall, global uncertainty and geopolitical risks are keeping investors cautious, leading to volatility in the Indian stock market.
