Stock exchanges in the US had ended mostly higher on Tuesday.
"Major US stock benchmarks ended mixed on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average booking a fourth straight day of losses, on the eve of key inflation reading. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq ended higher on Tuesday," said Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research, HDFC Securities.
Meanwhile, international oil benchmark Brent crude gained 1.64 per cent to 104.14 per barrel.
Foreign institutional investors continued to offload shares worth Rs 3,960.59 crore on Tuesday, according to stock exchange data.

"Indian markets are extremely volatile as a result of FII selling, rate hikes by the US Fed and RBI, growing inflation, and continuous geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine. Positive geopolitical developments, as well as stronger-than-expected critical macroeconomic data, may assist to change the tide and entice investors to return to equities market," he added.
