The Indian share markets witnessed a muted start to trading on Tuesday morning, driven by a mix of domestic and global cues. The BSE Sensex started the session around 77,670, tanking about 40 points, while the NSE Nifty50 rang the opening bell near 24,230, remaining almost flat, as of 9:15 AM.
The GIFT Nifty gave indications of a troublesome session ahead, declining more than 150 points and falling under 24,200, in early trading. This downfall followed the session a day earlier, when both benchmarks closed trading in red.
In the pre-open session, the Sensex slipped almost 100 points and inched closer to 77,600, and the Nifty tested 24,200, near 9:05 AM.
Asian Markets Remain Mixed
Global markets signalled a cautious session ahead, as investors awaited key US corporate earnings amid worsening geopolitical concerns. Japan’s Nikkei 225 surged 0.4 per cent, while the Kospi in South Korea fell 1 per cent. Australia’s ASX 200, meanwhile, slipped 0.5 per cent in early trade.
Further, oil prices, silver, gold rates, the latest earnings, and global market trends will continue to remain in focus today.
