Stock market today: Indian stock markets began the day on a flat note on Wednesday, as a blend of domestic and global uncertainties prompted investors to adopt a cautious stance ahead of the Reserve Bank of India’s monetary policy announcement and significant geopolitical events, including an important meeting between the US and Russia.
The sentiment remained subdued as market participants sought clarity on various issues.
The Nifty 50 index started at 24,641.35, showing a slight decrease of 8.20 points or 0.03 percent. Similarly, the BSE Sensex opened marginally lower at 80,694.98, down by 15.27 points or 0.02 percent.
Market analysts observed that the existing uncertainty, fueled by expectations regarding monetary policy and geopolitical conflicts, has led investors to adopt a wait-and-see approach.
