India's BSE Sensex closed marginally down at 84,233.6 after a choppy session on Wednesday, halting a three-day winning streak, as weakness in IT stocks outweighed gains in PSU banks and autos. Market sentiment remained influenced by mixed third-quarter earnings, a stabilization in foreign flows, upcoming inflation data, and optimism surrounding the US-India trade agreement. Among index constituents, Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, HCL Technologies, Eternal, ITC, and Tech Mahindra posted the biggest losses, up to 2.5%. Titan reversed early gains and fell 0.7% after releasing better-than-expected results for the October-December quarter. On the upside, State Bank of India climbed 3.3% and was the top performer, following recent upbeat Q3 earnings. Maruti Suzuki India, IndiGo, Trent, and Reliance Industries also advanced firmly, with gains up to 1.8%. Meanwhile, automaker Mahindra & Mahindra saw a marginal rise after posting a smaller-than-expected quarterly profit.
