The move comes alongside a sharp rise in US bond yields, with the 10-year Treasury yield at 5.25 percent, its highest level since 2007, and the 30-year yield at 5.56 percent. Together, the two pressures pushed the BSE Sensex down as much as 708 points, or 0.97 percent, to 72,064, and the Nifty 50 down 210 points intraday to a low of 22,570, extending India&#8217;s selloff to a second straight session. Since higher crude prices have not been passed on to Indian consumers, the fiscal strain from an elevated oil import bill is an added concern for growth and corporate earnings in FY27.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Oil prices rose for a second successive session on Tuesday as lingering concern over Middle East supply disruption from the US-Iran conflict outweighed signs of recovering crude exports from the region. Brent crude futures jumped almost 2 percent to $107 a barrel, while the crude oil price today for US West Texas Intermediate also moved higher.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in?utm_source=blogs&#038;utm_medium=crude-oil-price-today-bond-yields-market\"><strong>Click Here &#8211; Get Free Investment Predictions<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The rise in crude coincided with a sharp move in global bond markets, and together the two forces dragged Indian benchmark indices into a second straight day of losses.

Higher US yields make dollar fixed income relatively more attractive and raise global borrowing costs, which can pull foreign capital away from emerging markets including India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\"><strong>Track Oil-Sensitive Stocks and the Market on the Univest Screener<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_the_Crude_Oil_Price_Today_Means_for_India\"><\/span><strong>What the Crude Oil Price Today Means for India<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Since the crude oil price today has not been passed through to Indian consumers at the pump, the government absorbs more of the cost, which widens fiscal strain if oil stays elevated. That strain can weigh on India&#8217;s GDP growth and on corporate earnings estimates for FY27, a concern Vijayakumar specifically flagged alongside the crude move.<\/p>\n<p>The market reaction has been direct: the BSE Sensex fell as much as 708 points, or 0.97 percent, to 72,064, and the Nifty 50 declined 210 points intraday to a low of 22,570. Global equities were also broadly weaker, with Japan&#8217;s Nikkei down 1.4 percent, South Korea&#8217;s Kospi down 1.05 percent and Hong Kong&#8217;s Hang Seng down 0.96 percent, adding an external drag to the domestic story.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Foreign_Flows_and_the_Technical_Picture\"><\/span><strong>Foreign Flows and the Technical Picture<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Foreign portfolio investors have net sold about Rs 20,695 crore of Indian stocks so far in September, turning sellers after two months of buying, a trend Vijayakumar expects to continue given elevated US yields and strong recent returns in India&#8217;s own IPO market as an alternative draw for domestic capital. Notably, FPIs have kept buying mid- and small-cap stocks even while selling large caps, showing the outflow is concentrated rather than uniform.<\/p>\n<p>On the charts, Nifty has formed a large bearish candle with a lower high and lower low, a continuation pattern according to Bajaj Broking, which flagged that a decisive break below 22,700 could push the index toward 22,400, where a long-term trendline and the 200-week exponential moving average offer support.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Risks_to_Watch_From_Here\"><\/span><strong>Risks to Watch From Here<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A further escalation in the West Asia conflict that meaningfully disrupts crude supply is the primary risk to the crude oil price today, since it would keep prices elevated and deepen the fiscal and inflation concerns already in play. Continued strength in US bond yields is the second risk, since it sustains pressure on both foreign flows and rate-sensitive sectors like IT.<\/p>\n<p>A weakening rupee against a backdrop of higher oil imports is the third risk, since it can amplify the cost of crude in local-currency terms even if dollar prices stabilise. Investors should watch the technical level of 22,700 on the Nifty and follow how OPEC and West Asia developments evolve over the coming sessions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><em>Download the <a href=\"http:\/\/apps.apple.com\/in\/app\/univest-stocks-investment\/id6443753518\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest iOS App<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.univest.capp&#038;hl=en_IN\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest Android App<\/a> to track the crude oil price today and get alerts on market-moving commodity news.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The crude oil price today near $107 a barrel, combined with US bond yields at their highest since 2007, has driven a second straight day of losses on Indian markets, with the Sensex down as much as 708 points intraday.
