Nifty futures were trading 115 points or 0.65 per cent down at 17,595.50 on Singaporean Exchange, indicating a sell-off in BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 on Tuesday. Domestic cues remain positive as economic activities gain further momentum, but the elevated valuations along with multiple global concerns would keep markets volatile, said an analyst. RBI monetary policy and TCS second-quarter results due on 8th October (Friday) are the two key events which will be widely tracked. “RBI is expected to maintain its policy rates but it may lay the roadmap for stimulus tapering in line with other central banks. TCS would mark the start of Q3FY22 earnings season which is expected to continue the strong earnings momentum,” Siddhartha Khemka, Head – Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services, said.
