The SGX Nifty (now GIFT Nifty) trades overnight and shows pre-open direction based on US market moves. The correlation is roughly 60-70% on normal days.

Major US market drops (2%+) almost always create gaps in Nifty. But Indian markets have their own drivers that can override the US direction — especially around domestic events.
