Tata Consultancy Services shed 0.6 percent while Infosys edged up slightly ahead of their Q3 earnings due on January 11.

Titan Company edged up 0.3 percent after sharing its Q3 update.

Reliance Industries gained half a percent after it announced a partnership with Canada's Brookfield to open a data center in Chennai.

Bajaj Auto added half a percent ahead of a board meeting today to consider share buyback.

JSW Steel was marginally lower after it received approval to set up 2,678-acre greenfield-integrated steel plant in Odisha.
