Sensex falls 50 points, Nifty above 24,050; Eternal, Sun Pharma, TechM rise 1%

Indian stock markets traded mixed on Monday, with Sensex dipping slightly and Nifty inching higher amidst rising oil prices due to Iran-US tensions. While some blue-chips gained, broader markets saw a minor decline.

Analysts suggest a potential market upturn due to easing FII selling and South Korea's volatility, but a deficient monsoon remains a concern. Upcoming Q1 results are expected to drive stock-specific movements.
