As the trading session commenced on April 19th, both the Sensex and the Nifty continued their downward trend for the fifth consecutive day, fueled by reports of Israel's recent missile launch on Iran. This event triggered a surge in oil and gold prices, heightening concerns about the global economy. Concurrently, the commencement of Lok Sabha elections added to the domestic landscape. The Indian rupee also opened at a historic low of 83.55 per Dollar.
