Sensex slumps 1,200 points as oil rallies to $106 a barrel
AI Market Summary
Indian equities sold off sharply as crude jumped back to ~$106, worsening India's inflation and import-bill outlook while US data lifted the 10-year Treasury yield to the highest since 2007, tightening global financial conditions. Financials led declines on proposed IRDAI commission caps. A weaker INR and falling gold alongside a stronger USD reinforce risk-off positioning, increasing near-term volatility across India-linked risk assets.
