Bad light stopped play in the evening session of the weather-hit World Test Championship final between India and New Zealand at the Ageas Bowl on Saturday.
Put in to bat, India were on 134-3 when the umpires checked the light and decided it was not clear enough to continue playing.
India captain Virat Kohli was batting on 40, while his deputy Ajinkya Rahane was on 22.
Persistent rain washed out the entire opening day's play on Friday.
Organisers have allocated one reserve day to make up for lost time.
