Mumbai: Benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty buckled under selling pressure Tuesday as fresh tensions flared in the Strait of Hormuz region and the ceasefire between the US and Iran came under strain. The rupee hitting a record low against the US dollar amid elevated crude prices also made investors cautious. In a volatile session, the 30-share BSE Sensex dropped 251.61 points, or 0.33 per cent, to settle at 77,017.79. During the day, it tanked 754.37 points, or 0.97 per cent, to 76,515.03. The 50-share NSE Nifty edged lower by 86.50 points, or 0.36 per cent, to end at 24,032.80. “Domestic equities witnessed a volatile session, closing lower as post-election optimism faded and sentiment re-aligned with global weakness amid rising geopolitical tensions. “Elevated crude prices continued to pressure the rupee, which slipped to record lows. Despite these headwinds, the ongoing earnings season, with results slightly ahead of expectations, provided some support and triggered selective bottom-fishing,” Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said.

Vodafone Idea: The End of AGR Chapter, What Next? The DoT has finalised Vodafone Idea's AGR dues at INR64,046 crore as of December 31, 2025, down 27% from the provisional ₹87,695 crore, with repayments deferred entirely to FY32–FY41. The resolution removes a decade-long legal overhang, accelerates Vi's long-stalled INR 45,000 crore capex plan, and materially improves bank lending confidence, a precondition for competitive survival. The AGR closure is necessary but not sufficient: Vi must now close its debt raise, stop subscriber churn, narrow the ARPU gap, all before spectrum dues spike sharply from FY28. 2.

Maruti Suzuki Ltd - Strong Domestic Recovery Drives Growth Strong Domestic Momentum with Supply Constraints: Domestic demand remained strong in Q4FY26, supported by the GST reduction-led recovery in the second half, driving record total sales of 24,22,713 units (+8.4% YoY), with domestic volumes at 19,74,939 units (+3.9% YoY) and exports at 4,47,774 units (+34.6% YoY). Growth was led by improved traction in the small car segment and rising first-time buyer participation. However, volumes were partly constrained by production capacity limitations, reflected in a strong pending order book of 1,90,000 units (including 1,30,000 units in small cars), while dealer inventory remained lean at ~12 days, indicating healthy retail demand and tight supply conditions.
