Other indices except Nifty PSU Bank (-1.1%) closed flat-to-green. Nifty Pharma (+1.56%) and Nifty Realty (+1.4%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mostly in the green. European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

UltraTech Cement (+3.1%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. Yesterday, the company acquired the cement grinding assets of Burnpur Cement Ltd for ₹169.78 crore. 

Tata Technologies made a stellar debut in the stock market today. Its shares listed at ₹1,200 per share, a premium of 140% over its issue price of ₹500 per share.

New India Assurance (+10%) surged on the back of strong volumes.

Adani Ent (-1.59%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Aether Industries (-5.99%) fell sharply for the second day in a row after a fire at the company’s Surat facility left six people dead and one missing.

Markets Ahead

After the strong upward rally, major Indian indices experienced a slight retracement with some volatility today. However, the key support levels remained intact. This indicates that the markets continue to maintain a bullish stance.

Nifty: The major support to monitor is the round levels of 20,000. The immediate support is near 20,100. If there’s a breakdown from this level, the index could decline to 20,000 and further to 19,960 levels. Meanwhile, the resistance to keep an eye on is near the all-time high (ATH) level of 20,200.

Bank Nifty: The index is encountering resistance at the crucial breakdown levels of 44,600, where the cup and handle pattern was also formed. That level has to be taken out for the index to move to 45,000 and 45,500. On the other hand, the immediate support to observe is 44,300. If there’s a breakdown from this level, the index could decline to 44,000 and 43,800 levels.

S&P Global Rating has upgraded India’s GDP growth from 6.0% to 6.4% for FY24. This has brought some optimism to the broad market.

Nifty Towards ATH, Regains 20,000! – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day at 19,976 with a gap-up of 86 points. Even after the big gap up, the index continued moving up with a lot of strength to 20,100 levels— making a 150-point upward rally. Nifty closed at 20,096, up by 206 points or 1.04%.

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day at 44,081 with a gap-up of 201 points. After initial consolidation near 44,000 levels, the index gave a breakout and moved up with strength to 44,630 levels— making an intraday movement of more than 600 points. BNF closed at 44,566, up by 685 points or 1.56%.

All indices except Nifty Realty (-0.5%) and Nifty Media (-0.13%) closed in the green. Nifty Auto (+1.63%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading flat-to-green.

Today’s Moves

Axis Bank (+3.82%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The bank has entered into a credit card point conversion partnership with Air India.

Aster DM Health (+18.8%) surged after the company said its subsidiary would sell its stake in Aster DM Healthcare FZC to Alpha GCC for ~₹8,125 crore).

Adani Ent (-1.1%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Aether Industries (-8.41%) crashed after the company reported a fire at its Surat facility early that injured 25 people.

Markets Ahead

The Indian stock markets are looking strong, which is evident in today’s closing. Opting option buying trades could be a good strategy in the upcoming days, especially during market dips or corrections. The all-time high (ATH) in Nifty and Bank Nifty can be expected before the state election results kick in!

Nifty: The immediate support for the index is near the round levels of 20,000. The resistance will be near 20,200 (ATH levels). So if there’s a gap down or gap up tomorrow, there could be buying seen again after some retracement. On the other hand, a flat opening may lead to a continuation of the up-move.

Bank Nifty: The index is at an interesting breakout resistance level of 44,600, also forming a cup and handle pattern. A breakout could take the index up to 46,000 levels (as it’s still far from ATH when compared to Nifty). Meanwhile, the key support to watch is near 44,400 levels. A breakdown from there may take BNF down to 44,000 levels.

As per reports, the Indian stock markets are expected to see an inflow of around ₹30,000 crore from a major US pension fund from 2024 onwards, which could give a boost to local stocks!

Nifty chart November 20 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day flat at 43,591. The index initially showed strength by moving up to the 43,700 resistance zone. Then, it made a double-top and fell to 43,500 levels. After all the volatile moves, the index consolidated and BNF closed flat at 43,584, up by 1 point or 0.00%.

Nifty Auto (-0.76%) fell the most, while Nifty IT (+0.6%) moved up the most today.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. UK’s FTSE100 is currently trading in the red, while France’s CAC40 and Germany’s DAX (+2%) are trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

Divi’s Labs (+2.02%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock extended gains for the fourth day in a row. 

Tata Investment Corp (+15.17%) rallied ahead of Tata Technologies’ IPO on Nov 22.

Latent View (+9.25%) surged on the back of strong volumes.

Adani Enterprises (-2.67%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. As per a Reuters report, Indian investigators aim to resume a probe into Adani Group. The inquiry focuses on suspected coal import overvaluation.

Bajaj Finance (-2.11%) fell after the lender temporarily suspended issuing member ID cards to customers following RBI’s order.

Shares of Balkrishna Industries (-5.51%) fell sharply, extending losses for the second straight session. 

Markets Ahead

The Indian markets are currently holding near crucial resistance levels. However, the rise in India VIX and a PCR of 0.73 suggest a degree of bearish sentiment (especially in Bank Nifty). Given that both indices have been trading in a range, a decisive breakout or breakdown from these levels could lead to significant moves in the respective directions.

Nifty: The critical support level to monitor is around 19,660. If there’s a breakdown from this level, potential targets in the index could be 19,600 and 19,500. On the other, the resistance to keep an eye on is at 19,720. A breakout from this level might lead to targets of 19,760, 19,800, and 19,860.

Bank Nifty: The key resistance level to monitor is at 43,800. A breakout from this level could propel the index to 44,000 and 44,200 levels. Meanwhile, the support level to keep an eye on is around 43,400. A breakdown from this level might lead to targets of 43,000 and 42,500 eventually.

Following today’s consolidation, the upcoming FINNIFTY expiry tomorrow could be volatile. So stay alert for directional movements and trade with caution.

Flat Expiry for Nifty! What Next? – Post-Market Analysis

NIFTY started the day flat at 19,457 with a small gap-up of 14 points. There was huge volatility in the first 30 minutes. Later, the index tried moving up but took resistance at the opening levels (19,460) and fell gradually to 19,380 levels. Nifty closed at 19,395, down by 48 points or 0.25%.

Nifty chart November 9 - post-market analysis

BANK NIFTY (BNF) started the day flat at 43,626. Unlike Nifty, BNF was bullish and moved up more than 300 points to 43,880 levels. Post 12 PM, there was a slow correction till 43,650. BNF closed at 43,683, up by 25 points or 0.06%.

All indices except Nifty Realty (+1.23%) and Nifty Auto (+0.83%) closed flat-to-red. Nifty FMCG (-0.9%) fell the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed (Japan’s Nikkei closed 1.58% in the green). European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

Mahindra & Mahindra (+4.35%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The automaker is expected to report a healthy rise in Q2 earnings, led by robust automobile sales even as weak tractor sales will cap gains.

SPARC (+8.08%) surged on the back of strong volumes. 

Adani Ent (-2%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Shares of MTAR Tech (-11.4%) fell the most since June 2022 after the company posted weak Q2 results. It has also cut revenue, margin guidance for FY24.

KRBL (-8.9%) fell sharply after the company (a top exporter of branded basmati rice) reported a 28.1% YoY drop in Q2 profit as it was hit by weak demand.

Markets Ahead

Bank Nifty is holding the upper levels, while Nifty is looking a bit weak. Both indices are holding their respective resistance zones, as those were the levels from where the indices gave a breakdown. So if the indices can cross major resistances, we could see a clear change in trend in the coming days.

Nifty: The major support to watch out for is near the closing level of 19,380. A breakdown from there could take the index down to 19,320 levels and 19,280 levels eventually. Meanwhile, the index has an important resistance at 19,460 levels. A breakout from there may take the index up to 19,500 and 19,550 levels.

Bank Nifty: The index is respecting a trend line and has formed a triangular pattern. If BNF breaks down from this trendline or 43,500, we could expect a fall to 43,300 and 43,000 levels. On the other hand, a breakout from the 44,000 resistance level might take the index up to 44,500.

After the volatility we’ve experienced, the indices are now staying within a certain range. If this consolidation continues tomorrow, it might be a sign that the markets are gearing up for some bug movement in the upcoming weeks, especially with Diwali and upcoming state assembly elections.

Today’s Moves

Sun Pharma (+2.54%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The company posted a 5% year-on-year (YoY) rise in net profit to ₹2,375.51 crore in Q2; beating estimates.

Adani Enterprises (-3.3%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Jindal Steel (-7.69%) fell sharply despite posting good Q2 results yesterday.

Markets Ahead

As discussed yesterday, the rise in India Vix, overall selling pressure, and rejection from Fibonacci levels, along with a flat opening, pulled the markets down.

Nifty: The immediate resistance to watch out for in Nifty is 19,030. The index has important support at 18,940 levels. If the index breaches the resistance on the upside, the index could move up to 19,100 and 19,140 levels. But if there’s a flat opening tomorrow and the movement continues, 18,940 may be the first target, followed by 18,850 levels.

Bank Nifty: The index is now in a clear range. A breakout from this range of 42,760 might take the index up to 43,000 and 43,350 levels. Meanwhile, a breakdown from 42,600 may take the index down to 42,400 and 42,150.

As it was the weekly Bank Nifty expiry today, option sellers would’ve found it quite easy since the index consolidated. Option scalpers also had decent opportunities as the index was volatile within a range.

Meanwhile, RBI governor Shaktikanta Das said that GDP growth for the second quarter of FY24 is likely to surpass expectations based on early indicators. RBI had projected a GDP growth of 6.5% for Q2, which aligns with the full-year growth forecast for FY24.

Shares of Tata Investment Corp (+6.3%) are up 40% so far for the year, which is its best annual performance since 2009.

Maruti Suzuki (-2.1%) moved down after the automaker received a draft assessment notice for unpaid dues worth ₹2,160 crore from the Income Tax department for FY2019-20.

Markets Ahead

Markets are looking weak. It gave a decent fall without much retracement. Now, the markets are holding major long-term support zones. Nifty made a hammer candlestick in the daily time frame, whereas Bank Nifty looks bearish. So if the indices breach the important levels discussed below, they may turn into a bearish trend for the rest of the quarter.

Nifty: The immediate resistance for the index is near 19,480-500 levels. The important support level is near today’s low of 19,300 levels. Looking at the reversal from the bottom, the index could move a little higher tomorrow. If 19,500 is crossed, Nifty may be choppy and volatile till 19,560 levels are crossed. After that, 19,640 and 19,700 could be targets on the upside. A breakdown of 19,400 may give us targets of 19,340 and 19,280 eventually.

Bank Nifty: The immediate resistance to watch out for is near 44,000, and the next resistance is at 44,200 levels. A breakout from these levels could give us targets of 44,370 and 44,500 eventually. A breakdown from today’s low may give us targets of 43,720 and 43,630.

Both Nifty and Bank Nifty showed buying pressure and tried to recover from yesterday’s fall. However, both indices couldn’t cross or close above their respective resistance levels or yesterday’s high. Indices are still under selling zones. So markets can turn bullish only after important levels are breached.

Nifty: The current swing of 19,600 can act as immediate support. And a major support to watch out for in Nifty is 19,500. A breakdown from these levels may give us targets of 19,400 and 19,350. Meanwhile, a major hurdle on the upside is 19,740 levels. A breakout from there could give us targets of 19,800 and 19,860 levels. A breach of 19,860 levels can indicate a reversal and markets to turn bullish again. 

Nifty is moving in a flag and pole pattern. So a breakout can confirm the upward movement.

Bank Nifty: The immediate support to look out for is near the round levels of 44,500. A breakdown from these levels may take the index to 44,350 and 44,200 levels. The important resistance is near today’s high of 44,780-800. A breakout could give us targets of 44,900 and 45,000. More importantly, 45,200 has to be crossed for a trend reversal.

Bank Nifty has been moving in a channel, and the channel high may be respected!

Bank Nifty chart September 11 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices except Nifty Media (-0.33%) closed in the green. Nifty PSU Bank (+3.13%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

Adani Ports (+6.96%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer.

Adani Ent (+3.8%) also closed well in the green today. As per reports, promoters have boosted their holdings in the Adani Group companies as part of an ongoing strategy to recover from the negative publicity.

SJVN (+20%) zoomed after the company’s green energy arm signed a power purchase agreement with Bhakra Beas Management Board to develop an 18 MW solar power project.

ITI (+19.97%) jumped after the company said it has developed a laptop and micro PC in association with Intel Corporation.

Coal India (-1.12%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Natco Pharma (-7.7%) fell sharply after the company was named a defendant in an antitrust lawsuit in the US last week.

Markets Ahead

As mentioned in our earlier post-market report, Nifty and Bank Nifty are yet to catch up to our target of a record high. As markets have been stretched out a lot without much of a retracement, major indices could face some rejection near their all-time highs. Moreover, the increase in India Vix by nearly 6% today indicates a similar scenario. So wait for proper price action to sell. If the rally continues, it’s wise to stay with the trend.

Nifty: The index is at an all-time high! The immediate resistance to watch out for will be 20,000 round levels. If there’s a big gap, some profit booking could be seen. And if there’s a gap-down, we could witness a retracement. So, the important support now is 19,930 levels. A breakdown from there can give us targets of 19,870 and 19,820.

Nifty is also respecting a trendline (as shown below). So watch out for the breakdown from this trendline for a retracement.

Bank Nifty: The important support for the index is near 45,400. A breakdown from there can give us targets of 45,150 and 45,000. Meanwhile, the important resistance to watch out for is near the 45,700 level. A breakout could give us targets of 46,000 and 46,250 levels eventually. 

As per market experts, investors’ optimism about India’s role in the G20 summit outweighed concerns about crude oil prices hitting $90. Today’s up-move in Nifty was mainly driven by a rise in heavyweights like Reliance and banks.

Bank Nifty chart August 23 - post-market analysis | marketfeed

All indices except Nifty FMCG (-0.49%), Nifty Metal (-0.13%), and Nifty Pharma (-0.13%) closed flat-to-green. Nifty PSU Bank (+1.7%) moved up the most.

Major Asian markets closed mixed. European markets are currently trading in the green.

Today’s Moves

Hindalco (+2.4%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The company plans to invest ₹2,000 crore in a copper & e-waste facility and ₹2,000 crore in a project with Indian Railways.

MMTC (+10.13%) jumped on the back of strong volumes.

Adani Enterprises (-6.2%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. 

Shares of Adani Group companies Adani Trans (-7.26%), Adani Power (-7.07%), and Adani Green (-4.3%) fell despite the conglomerate reporting a 42% YoY rise in pre-tax profit to ₹23,532 crore in Q1.

Brightcom Group (-4.9%) fell sharply after SEBI barred the company’s Chairman & CEO Suresh Kumar Reddy and CFO Narayan Raju from holding any directorial positions.

Markets Ahead

Banking stocks displayed notable strength today, which helped Bank Nifty move up with much more strength than Nifty. Adani Enterprises weighed down Nifty’s performance. Markets have given a good closing above the previous resistances of 19,420 in Nifty and 44,100 in Bank Nifty.

Nifty: The index is now out of the descending channel and gave a closing above it. However, Nifty still has a round level resistance near 19,500. To sustain the upward movement, Nifty must achieve a closing above this level. A breakout from 19,500 can give us targets of 19,600 and 19,640. Meanwhile, the immediate support levels to watch out for will be 19,420-400. A breakdown can give us targets of 19,360 and 300 eventually.

A flat opening with consolidation or a gap-up opening can be positive for the markets tomorrow. A gap-down opening might introduce volatility within a certain range for the index.

Bank Nifty: The index closed below the major round level resistance of 44,500. A breakout on the upside can give us targets of 44,750 and 45,000 eventually. The immediate support level to watch out for is near 44,300 level. A breakdown below 44,300 can push the index to 44,100 and 44,000 levels.

On a daily time frame, the index is at the resistance zone of an inverted Head and Shoulder pattern. So watch out if it’s being respected or giving a strong breakout!
