Indian stock markets are expected to begin Monday’s session on a flat-to-weak note, with early signals showing limited momentum for equities. Gift Nifty was trading around the 24,300 mark at about 7 am IST, pointing to a cautious start for domestic benchmarks.
The subdued indication comes as investors weigh mixed global cues. Market sentiment also appears restrained by escalating rhetoric and tension between the United States and Iran, which is adding to uncertainty across financial markets.
A flat opening typically suggests traders are waiting for stronger direction before taking fresh positions. In this backdrop, Indian equities may see cautious activity at the open as participants track overseas developments and broader risk appetite.
With Gift Nifty showing marginal weakness, the near-term tone for Indian stocks remains watchful rather than decisively bearish or bullish. The opening trend will likely depend on how investors interpret global signals and geopolitical risks during the course of the session.
