In the previous session, Indian indices ended slightly lower with Nifty 50 down 0.04% and Sensex slipping 0.09%, as broader market breadth showed more declines than advances. The IT sector led gains with a 3.3% rise, driven by a positive outlook from the US Fed's expected rate hold. However, Bank Nifty fell by 0.58% amid continued FII selling, which totaled ₹1,271 Cr. Overnight, geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, coupled with potential military actions, are likely to impact energy prices and investor sentiment at the open.
