The key domestic benchmarks are expected to open on flat note today
tracking a subdued trend in most Asian markets and a negative finish at Wall
Street overnight. Most Asian stocks fell as trading volumes were thin as
investors stayed on the sidelines ahead of the year-end while a slump in
commodity prices and political uncertainty in Greece curbed risk taking
appetite. Back home, markets may be supported by the latest reform unleashed by
the Modi government which issued an executive order making it easier for
companies to buy land, a move which may help kick-start stalled infrastructure
projects.
