ensex Today, Nifty 50 | Stock Market Live Updates – Find here all the live updates related to Sensex, Nifty, BSE, NSE, share prices and Indian stock markets for 7 August 2026
Markets ended Thursday’s session on a flat note, with the headline indices masking a sharper story beneath the surface, a nearly 3 per cent surge in defence stocks and a four-session-old structural quirk that is cleaving the Sensex and Nifty apart at close.
The Nifty 50 settled at 24,636, up just 11.35 points or 0.05 per cent, after oscillating in a 73-point band through the session. The Sensex, however, closed at 78,954.76, up 0.48 per cent, a gap of roughly 43 basis points between the two benchmarks that has now persisted for four straight sessions since the NSE introduced its Closing Auction Session (CAS) on August 3. Market observers say the divergence reflects differences in institutional order flow and auction-window liquidity between the two index baskets, rather than any fundamental disconnect. Most analysts expect the distortion to narrow as participants recalibrate.

Crude Oil Prices Today LIVE: Oil rises on concerns over Strait of Hormuz reopening plans
Oil continued its rise on Friday amid further concerns around the opening of the Strait of Hormuz as Iran, working with Oman, suggested banning vessels deemed hostile from the strait and heavily fining those who violated the proposed rules.
Brent crude futures rose 99 cents, or 1.2%, to $83.48 a barrel by 0010 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate futures rose 85 cents, or 1.1%, to $78.84. Oil futures settled up at over $3 a barrel on Thursday as Iran reviewed a bill to ban U.S. and Israeli vessels from the Strait of Hormuz where roughly a fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas transmitted before the war began at the end of February. Prices fell earlier in the week as a possible solution to the ongoing conflict looked more likely but benchmark Brent breached $80 on Thursday after falling below that for the first time since July 13.
