Indian Indices:
Indian equity market is likely to open on a negative note today tracking weak cues from other Asian
peers and bearish Nifty futures on the Singapore Stock Exchange. Moreover,hawkish tone by RBI
policymakers, as indicated by the minutes of the recent policy review may weigh on investors’
sentiments. The minutes of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) released on Thursday indicated a
rise in interest rates might just be round the corner in wake of rising inflation.
Weak SGX Nifty Index Futures for April delivery, which was trading at 10,537.00, down 51 points, or
0.48%, at 11:28 AM Singapore time, also signaled a negative opening for the domestic equity bourses.
Dalal Street investors will react to IMF chief Christine Lagarde comment who said she does not expect
the pace of economic reforms in India to continue in an election year.
