Indian shares are set for a muted start on Friday as investors turned cautious about the Q2 earnings, with TCS reporting lower than expected numbers.

Positive sentiment in the global markets may lend support to Indian equities. Asian and US stocks rose after US said trade talks are going better than expected.
