Domestic investors will also focus on surging crude prices, which rose 3% overnight. Higher oil prices will negatively impact India, the world's third-largest importer, which is also reeling under lower-than-expected monsoon rains. FIIs sold 3.54 billion rupees ($42.53 million) of shares, while domestic investors bought 3.86 billion rupees shares on Wednesday, provisional exchange data showed.
