Stocks to watch today: Shares of firms like TCS, Tata Steel, Biocon, Marico, LIC, and others will be in focus in Wednesday’s trade
Nifty futures on the Singapore Exchange traded 106 points, or 0.67 per cent, higher at 15,872, signaling that Dalal Street was headed for a positive start on Wednesday. The market seemed to have given a false upside breakout in the previous session as the Nifty50 surpassed 15,900 in the opening and then 16,000 as well but failed to hold on to both levels due to profit booking in the latter part of the session, registering a bearish candle on the daily charts as the closing was lower than opening levels. The BSE Sensex fell 100 points to 53,134, and the Nifty50 declined 25 points to 15,811.
