India’s equity benchmarks started lower on Friday, with Nifty slipping ~0.15% and Sensex ~0.16%. The drag came from IT names: Infosys declined ~1.5%, while Wipro plunged ~4.5% despite reporting solid top-line growth. Analysts flagged margin pressure and cautious guidance as reasons. Broader markets were weak — 10 of 16 key sectors were in the red. The lack of follow-through buying after recent rally and global jitters kept sentiment muted. Investors expect guidance clarity to shape intraday action.
