New Delhi: The domestic stock indices are likely to stage a huge gap-down opening on Monday amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. Oil prices soared and global shares sank as the risk of a U.S. and European ban on Russian products and delays in Iranian talks triggered what was shaping up as a major stagflationary shock for world markets. Commodities of all stripes were on the rise as the Russian-Ukraine conflict showed no sign of cooling. Trends on SGX Nifty indicated a lower opening for the markets back home. The Nifty Futures on Singapore Exchange also known as the SGX Nifty Futures cracked 468.40 points or 2.88 per cent to 15,798.20.

The benchmark BSE Sensex had dived 769 points or 1.40 per cent to close at 54,334 on Friday; while the broader NSE Nifty had moved 253 points or 1.53 per cent lower to settle at 16,245.
