Reuters Market Eye - The BSE Sensex is up 0.12 percent, while the broader Nifty gains 0.17 percent.

Tata Steel Ltd shares up 4.8 percent, having earlier risen as much as 8.95 percent after the company's quarterly profit nearly doubled as costs fell sharply, making up for a dip in sales.

Tata Consultancy Services Ltd gains 1.5 percent, tracking rupee weakness and optimism about its earnings outlook.
