Sensex, Nifty, Share Prices LIVE: Gift Nifty indicates a likely 100-point gap-down opening for Nifty at 23,870 on Wednesday as global markets remain weak. Analysts cite concerns over an earnings slowdown and persistently high inflation; Jefferies India downgraded full-year earnings for 63% of the 121 large companies it covers due to economic slowing.

A continued hold on rates seems likely, but analysts at AngelOne note a shallower rate-cut cycle ahead for India, mirroring the US trend.
