Indian benchmark indices are likely to open on a flat note, hinted SGX Nifty. On the Singapore Exchange, Nifty futures were in the green, up 6 points, at the 17,494 level. In the previous session, Nifty 50 dropped 0.42% to hit a new 3-month low, while Sensex fell 0.30%, extending losses for a seventh straight session. “Bears continued to wreak havoc in the domestic market as the latest data releases from the US heightened the existing worries of aggressive rate hikes. The personal consumption expenditure in the US, which is Fed’s key monitorable of inflation, increased in January, pressuring investors to stay away from equities markets. The US dollar index surpassed 105, adding further pressure on the INR,” said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services.
