Back home, shares of HDFC Bank will be in focus after the country’s second-largest private sector bank slashed its base rate by 15 basis points (bps) to 9.70 per cent with effect from Monday.

On Tuesday, the Indian benchmarks closed on a positive note amid a rebound in late trades led by Infosys and bank shares.

Investors are expected to get clarity on US Fed rate hike.
