Indian shares set for tepid start ahead of US inflation data
BENGALURU, May 29 (Reuters) -Indian shares are likely to start trade on a lacklustre note on Wednesday, tracking weakness in global peers, as investors cautiously await U.S. inflation data due this week for clues on the Federal Reserve's interest rate trajectory.
The Gift Nifty GIFc1 was trading at 22,821, as of 0814 a.m. IST, indicating that the Nifty 50 .NSEI will open slightly higher than its previous close of 22,888.15.

"Global markets are consolidating ahead of U.S. GDP data and core PCE data, releasing on May 30, which will be crucial indicator for U.S. Fed interest rate decision," said Siddhartha Khemka, head - Retail Research, Motilal Oswal Financial Services.
"Expect Nifty to remain sideways to marginally positive on the back of reduced FII selling, prediction of above-normal monsoon and last leg of Q4 results," Khemka said.
Indian benchmarks ended lower on Tuesday in another volatile session with nervousness around the outcome of the national general elections next week.
