Indian Stocks Under Pressure Amid Israel-Iran Tension: Adani Port, TCS, Wipro, Infosys, LT, SBI Shares Falling
The escalating conflict between Israel and Iran has started to ripple across global markets and India is no exception. As geopolitical tensions in the Middle East intensify, several Indian companies with deep business and investment links to Israel are experiencing the economic and strategic fallout. From port infrastructure to IT services and pharmaceuticals, the crisis is affecting stock market performance, operational security, and investor sentiment.
Adani Ports: Directly Affected by Israel and Iran Tension
One of the most directly affected companies is Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd. (APSEZ). In January 2023, Adani Ports acquired a 70% stake in Haifa Port, one of Israel's largest and most strategic seaports. The acquisition, made in partnership with Israel's Gadot Group, was valued at approximately $1.18 billion. The Haifa Port handles nearly 30% of Israel's imports and is also located near key military infrastructure, making it a critical national asset for Israel.

However, this strategic investment has now turned into a source of risk. Iran launched multiple ballistic missiles targeting Haifa recently, raising serious concerns about the safety and continuity of operations at the port. While Adani Ports has officially stated that the Haifa Port remains safe and fully operational, investor concerns are growing amid fears of collateral damage or prolonged disruption.
As a result, Adani Ports' stock has dropped by nearly 10% in just 10 days.

Indian IT Majors: TCS, Wipro, Tech Mahindra Stocks
The Indian IT sector, which has a strong presence in Israel through various contracts and partnerships, is also seeing the effects of the rising tensions. Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a key player in Israel's digital infrastructure transformation, is particularly vulnerable. TCS is working on several large-scale government projects in Israel, including the critical Project Nimbus, a cloud migration and data protection initiative aimed at securing Israel's government systems.
Other major IT firms such as Wipro, Infosys, and Tech Mahindra also have important projects or client engagements in Israel. While details are limited, Bloomberg reports suggest that all of these companies are taking a conservative, watchful approach, with their stock movements reflecting subdued investor confidence amid the crisis.

Broader Impact on Nifty Indices: SBI, L&T and Others Under Scrutiny
Beyond IT and infrastructure, other Indian giants like the State Bank of India (SBI) and Larsen & Toubro (L&T) also have business or strategic exposure to Israel.

Other Companies in Spotlight: NMDC, Kalyan Jewellers, Titan Stocks To Watch
Interestingly, the Israel-Iran conflict has even touched companies not typically associated with geopolitical risks. NMDC, India's state-owned mining and mineral company, has minor yet strategic trade links with Israeli technology firms in the mining sector. Meanwhile, Kalyan Jewellers and Titan, two prominent players in India's jewellery and luxury goods space, have procurement or partnership links with Israeli diamond and gem suppliers. Any disruption to Israel's exports, especially in the gemstone sector could lead to supply issues or increased costs.
