The SGX Nifty hints at a muted start for domestic equity indices. Adani Group, Vedanta, JSW Energy are some of the stocks to watch on Wednesday.
SGX Nifty hinted that the domestic equity indices could see a flat start. On the Singapore Exchange, Nifty futures were trading higher, up 4 points, at the 16,994.5 level. On Monday, markets gained mildly as Nifty ended marginally lower, still not reclaiming the 17,000 level, while Sensex settled at 57,613, down 40 points.
“Indian markets continued to stay in the grip of bears as investors remained cautious in expectation of further tightening from the RBI. While global market sentiment has been improving as the fears of broader contagion from the banking turmoil fade. Back home, Nifty small and midcap stocks continued to underperform due to fall in investors’ risk appetite and FY23 tax harvesting,” said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services.
