Broader markets also weakened, with the Nifty Midcap 100 and Smallcap 100 gauges down half a percent in late morning deals. Investors awaited more Q3 numbers from India Inc for cues, a day after Bajaj Finance reported an 85 percent jump in net profit to Rs 2,125 crore for the December quarter, beating Street estimates.
