India’s largest IT services company TCS quoted over 2 percent lower in early trade even after reporting an 11 percent rise in December quarter net profit to Rs 10,846 crore.

Tata Motors, Tata Steel, Mahindra & Mahindra, Power Grid, Titan and Larsen & Toubro were among the winners from the 30-share pack.

Elsewhere in Asia, equity markets in Seoul and Tokyo were trading in the green, while Shanghai and Hong Kong quoted lower.

Markets in the US had ended on a mixed note on Monday.
