Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor were batting on 12 and 0 respectively when bad light forced early stumps.
Ishant Sharma removed opener Devon Conway (54 off 153) towards the end of the day to give India a much needed breakthrough.
India were all out for 217 and Kyle Jamieson was the pick of the New Zealand pacers, taking two wickets including the prized one of India skipper Virat Kohli, who could not add to his overnight 44.
Ajinkya Rahane (49 off 117) was playing well until he threw his wicket away with a half-hearted pull off Neil Wagner.
The dangerous Rishabh Pant (4 off 22) did not last long, falling to a loose drive off Jamieson with Tom Latham taking a brilliant catch in the slips.

Ravindra Jadeja was the last man to be dismissed on 15.
India had resumed the day at 146 for three.
Neither skipper Virat Kohli (44), nor his deputy Ajinkya Rahane (49) could complete their half-centuries as the Kiwis bowled a tight, disciplined line.
While Kohli was out leg-before to fall as the first wicket of the day, Rishabh Pant was caught in the slips for four. Rahane then fell to a short delivery, followed by R Ashwin who edged to slips after a quick 22.
The first day's play was washed out while second day's play ended early due to bad light.
