Indian markets are likely to open on a negative note, with GIFT Nifty trading near 24,160.50, down 50.50 points (-0.21%) from the previous close. Weak Asian cues, persistent Middle East tensions and elevated crude oil prices may keep sentiment cautious ahead of the Nifty monthly expiry. 24,150–24,000 is likely to act as the immediate support zone.
