06:41 AM EDT, 05/19/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Indian benchmark indices closed in the negative territory on Tuesday as investors stayed cautious amid mixed global cues and renewed uncertainty around geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
The BSE Sensex fell 114.19 points, or 0.2%, to close at 75,200.85, while the NSE Nifty 50 declined 31.95 points, or 0.1%, to settle at 23,618.00.
Market sentiment remained subdued as concerns over the U.S.-Iran conflict, elevated crude oil prices, and persistent weakness in the Indian rupee continued to pressure risk appetite.
In earnings news, RITES (NSE:RITES, BOM:541556) slipped over 1% after reporting a marginal decline in fiscal fourth-quarter consolidated profit to 1.30 billion rupees from 1.33 billion rupees a year earlier.
Eureka Forbes (NSE:EUREKAFORB, BOM:543482) also declined over 1% despite posting a higher quarterly profit of 510.3 million rupees compared to 495 million rupees last year.
In other corporate developments, Bharat Forge (NSE:BHARATFORG, BOM:500493) ended lower by around 2% after its aerospace division signed an MoU with the Andhra Pradesh government to establish a marine gas turbine repair, overhaul, and development facility in Visakhapatnam.
