INDIAN BENCHMARKS indices opened near the flat line with a negative bias during the morning trading session on Tuesday amid weak global cues. The traders are expected to remain cautious amidst worries over the progress of key economic reforms such as the Goods and Services Tax ( GST), the possibility of which being passed in the Winter Session of Parliament that concludes on Wednesday, is quite faint, dimming the outlook for Asia’s third biggest economy, souring the appetite for risky assets. Also, foreign institutional investors may stay on the sidelines ahead of Christmas and New Year, weighing on trading volume at Dalal Street.
