The Indian equity benchmark indices, the Sensex and Nifty, opened flat on Monday, June 16, 2025, amid mixed global cues as uncertainty stemming from the Israel-Iran conflict has created a risk-off in global markets. The 30-share BSE Sensex fell 84.15 points to open at 81,034.45, but the Nifty started the trading session at 24,732.35 with a minor gain of 13.75 points. In the last trading session, the Sensex closed at 81,118.60 and the Nifty 50 at 24,718.60. The broader indices too started the session with dips, with the BSE Midcap shedding 120.54 points and the BSE Smallcap index declining 185.83 points. However, the markets rebounded soon after the opening and started to trade in the green.
