BENGALURU - Indian shares hovered near record highs on Wednesday, boosted by Tata Motors and metal stocks, with sentiment aided by strength in global peers after worries about the tapering of the U.S. Federal Reserve's pandemic-era stimulus eased.
By 0350 GMT, the blue-chip NSE Nifty 50 index was up 0.3% at 16,674, and the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex was 0.26% higher at 56,105.3.
Shares of Tata Motors jumped 2.5% after hitting its lowest since early-February on Tuesday.
The Nifty Metal index was up 0.98%.

Meanwhile, against the backdrop of record-high Indian markets, a Reuters poll of analysts has found that the country's liquidity-driven stock market rally is expected to cool next year as global and domestic monetary policies start to tighten.
