Indian shares are likely to start Tuesday's session on a positive note shrugging off weakness in other Asian markets following a selloff on Wall Street overnight. At 8:46 am, Nifty futures on the Singapore Exchange — an early indicator of India's Nifty50 index — were up 71.5 points or 0.4 percent at 17,445.

Equities in other Asian markets were caught in the grip of contagion fears as trade resumed in Japan after a holiday. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan fell 0.2 percent, while Japan’s Nikkei 225 index was down two percent. Investors remained concerned over China Evergrande amid growing risks the property giant could default on its massive debt.

Overnight on Wall Street, the S&P 500 index tumbled 1.7 percent -- its biggest drop in four months. The Nasdaq Golden Dragon China index of US-listed Chinese shares plummeted 5.4 percent to near 15-month lows hit last month.

S&P 500 E-Mini futures were up 0.3 percent in early Asian trade, suggesting a positive start in the US on Tuesday.
