Nifty falls for sixth straight session; oil surge, CAS volatility rattle markets

Indian markets faced pressure as the Nifty declined for a sixth consecutive trading session. Rising oil prices and ongoing West Asia conflict kept traders cautious throughout the day. The Nifty closed lower, reflecting broader market weakness and investor concerns. Domestic institutional investors provided some buying support, while FPIs also bought shares. Technical indicators suggest a period of consolidation for the indices in the near term.
