Indian benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty are likely to open flat on July 15, tracking GIFT Nifty, which was around 25,157 this morning. Markets will be influenced by June CPI data, China’s Q2 GDP, US inflation, Q1 earnings, tariff concerns, and global cues.

India’s retail inflation eased to 2.1% in June from 2.82% in May — the lowest since January 2019 — driven by a decline in food prices. Meanwhile, wholesale inflation (WPI) turned negative at -0.13%, the first contraction in 20 months.

On July 14, benchmark indices closed lower for the fourth straight session, though Nifty held above 25,000. Broader markets gained, with buying seen across sectors except IT.

On the global front, Asia-Pacific markets were trading higher on Tuesday as investors shrugged off the uncertainty surrounding the US President Donald Trump’s shifting stance on tariffs and turned their attention to a busy economic data calendar from China. Nikkei was up 0.4 per cent, while the broader Topix index gained 0.3 per cent. Kospi rose 0.29 per cent and ASX 200 jumped 0.6 per cent.
