Indian shares look set to open on a flat note Tuesday as markets head into the final week of 2023. Volatility may increase this week due to the scheduled expiry of December month derivative contracts.
Rising uncertainty in the Red Sea, a surge in new Covid-19 cases and the absence of strong FII action due to year-end may also weigh on markets as the week progresses.
India logged a total of 628 new Covid-19 cases in the last 24 hours, while the active caseload jumped to 4,054, according to Union health ministry data.
