Sensex, Nifty Struggle For Direction
WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Indian shares struggled for direction in early trade on Wednesday, tracking weak global cues as a bout of risk aversion boosted bonds and the dollar.
The benchmark 30-share Sensex was up 4 points at 52,865, giving up early gains. The broader NSE Nifty index was down 3 points at 15,815.
Asian Paints, UPL and Bajaj Finserv all were up over 1 percent.
InterGlobe Aviation and SpiceJet were little changed. Domestic air passenger traffic in India rose 41 percent sequentially in June 2021, according to ICRA report.
Sobha surged 6.5 percent, HDFC gained 1.3 percent and RBL Bank added 1.6 percent after solid Q1 updates.
