Indian markets are expected to open flat with positive bias as SGX Nifty is currently ruling at 15,195 as against Nifty futures close of 15,185.

Analysts expect markets to stay on sidelines, as there are no triggers with result season almost coming to an end.

Ruchit Jain (Senior Analyst - Technical and Derivatives, Angel Broking), said: "Unlike last week, it has been a week of consolidation so far for the indices as Nifty, as well as Bank Nifty, have traded with a narrow range. There are no signs of reversal of the trend. and hence, this seems to be a time-wise correction, which was much-required post the sharp run-up in the budget week. As of now, there are no signs of any deeper retracements, and hence, once this consolidation is over, we expect the markets to resume its uptrend."
