Sensex, Nifty set for flat opening; HDFC Bank, Asian Paints in focus

Indian shares looked set for a mildly weak start on Monday, in line with Asian equities, as geopolitical concerns over the alleged murder of Saudi Arabian journalist Jamal Khashoggi and corporate earnings back home are likely to keep a lid on risk appetite.

At 07:45AM, SGX Nifty, an early indicator of the Nifty 50's trend in India, was down 0.14 percent to 10,310, indicating a flat-to-negative opening for the Indian market today.
