Today’s Moves

SBI Life (+3.14%) was NIFTY50’s top gainer. The stock has been moving up after the company reported strong Q2 earnings; a 45% YoY rise in its net profit and a 19% growth in net premium income.

FACT (+10%) surged on the back of long volumes.

Piramal Pharma (+9.48%) rallied up to 13% on positive guidance for the second half of FY24.

Mahindra & Mahindra (-2.62%) was NIFTY50’s top loser. Shares of the company’s subsidiary, M&M Financial Services, have tanked on the back of poor Q2 results.

DCM Shriram (-4.8%) fell sharply after the company posted weak Q2 results today.

Shares of Butterfly Gandhimathi (-7.04%) fell after public shareholders of the company voted against its merger with Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals.

Markets Ahead

As discussed earlier, major indices are taking proper rejection from Fibonacci levels. The rise in India Vix and selling pressure from the top is indicating some bearishness in the markets. So even if today’s lows are breached, markets can fall further. The up-move in the last two trading sessions (Friday and Monday) can be considered a retracement.

Nifty: The immediate support for the index is near 19,075 (where the markets closed today). If there’s a flat or gap down opening, the index could move down— giving us targets of 19,000 and 18,940 again. On the other hand, the important resistance to watch out for will be today’s high of 19,250. If the index crosses 19,150, we can expect Nifty to test 19,250 again.

Bank Nifty: The index is looking weak. BNF is currently at yesterday’s breakout levels of 42,800. If there is a flat or gap down opening tomorrow, BNF could achieve targets of 42,400 and 42,200 on the downside. If the resistance at 43,075 is taken out, 43,300 can be tested again.

Markets are facing rejections at the top. The rise in India Vix also indicates the markets to be bearish. So you could look for sell-on-rise opportunities, which will be ideal till major resistance zones are breached in Nifty and Bank Nifty.

Today’s Moves

Markets Ahead

Markets are moving up slowly and steadily, with a bit of volatility. Our target of 20,200 in Nifty and 46,300 in Bank Nifty are hit. After the crazy up-move over the past few days, it looks like both indices are taking a pause. So, there could be some consolidation in the coming days.

Nifty: The immediate support for the index is near 20,130, and next is the 20,040 levels. A breakdown from these levels could take the index down to the support zone and eventually to the 20,000 round levels. On the other hand, the important resistance will be 20,200 round levels. If this level gets breached, the index may advance towards 20,250 and 20,300.

Bank Nifty: The index is yet to hit its all-time high (ATH) at 46,369.5. Meanwhile, 46,300 can be watched as the immediate resistance. A breakout from there can take BNF to 46,400 or 46,500 in the coming weeks. The immediate support to watch out for is 46,000.

Market participants are consistently buying during market declines. So, it’s advisable not to sell unless crucial reversal levels get breached.

Interestingly, Sensex has experienced a remarkable 11-session rally, marking its most extended winning streak since 2007!
