  • Nifty 50 Holds 24,000, Sensex Targets 77,000 as Global Cues Remain Mixed

    Nifty 50 Holds 24,000, Sensex Targets 77,000 as Global Cues Remain Mixed

    Indian stock markets are set to open higher on Friday despite mixed global signals, with GIFT Nifty trading at 24,416 — a 156-point premium over the previous Nifty futures close — indicating a gap-up start.

    On Thursday, the Sensex surged 579.48 points (0.75%) to close at 77,502.12, while the Nifty 50 advanced 169.85 points (0.71%) to settle at 24,175.70. The Indian rupee also strengthened, opening 18 paise higher at Rs. 95.21 per dollar versus the previous close of Rs. 95.39.

    Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) remained net sellers, offloading equities worth Rs. 311.82 crore on July 2. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) continued to support the market with net purchases of Rs. 1,784.40 crore.

    Sensex Outlook

    The Sensex formed a bullish candle on the daily charts and is maintaining an uptrend continuation pattern on intraday charts — a largely positive sign. According to Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research at Kotak Securities, “For day traders, 77,200 would act as key support zones. Above these levels, the market could continue its positive momentum towards 77,800–78,200. Conversely, below 77,200, sentiment could turn negative, and the market could retest levels of 76,900–76,500.”

    Nifty 50 Outlook

    The Nifty 50 has gained for a second consecutive session, forming a bullish candle with higher highs and higher lows — signaling a continuation of the uptrend. The 23,800 support zone has emerged as a strong buying area, converging with multiple technical indicators including the previous gap area, the lows of the past two weeks, and the 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages (EMAs).

    Bajaj Broking noted: “Going ahead, bias remains positive, and the index is headed towards 24,260 and 24,350 levels in the coming session, being the high of last month and the previous gap area. Immediate support is placed at the Thursday gap area of 24,000–24,050.” The brokerage added that the daily chart shows a bullish crossover of the 20 and 50-day EMAs, highlighting strength. Key support is around 23,900–23,800; holding above these levels will keep the bias positive and the index could gradually head towards 24,500–24,600 in the coming weeks.

    Bank Nifty Outlook

    The Bank Nifty ended flat on Thursday at 58,031.65, forming a bearish candle on the daily chart with shadows on both sides — indicating indecisiveness. The sector remained relatively subdued compared to the broader market as gains were concentrated in IT stocks.

    Bajaj Broking Research added: “Going ahead, a move above last week’s high of 58,700 will open further upside towards 59,200 and 60,000 levels in the coming weeks, being the 138.2% and 150% external retracement of the previous decline from 57,456 to 52,783.” Failure to sustain above last week’s high could keep the Bank Nifty range-bound between 57,000 and 58,500 in the near term.

  • Indian Stock Market Update: Sensex Targets 77,500-77,800, Nifty Holds Above 23,900

    Indian Stock Market Update: Sensex Targets 77,500-77,800, Nifty Holds Above 23,900

    Indian equity markets are set to open higher on Thursday, buoyed by positive global cues. The GIFT Nifty surged 95 points in early trade to 24,187.5, signaling a gap-up start for the Nifty 50. This follows Wednesday’s gains where the Sensex rose 0.58% to 76,922.64 and the Nifty closed above 24,000 at 24,005.85.

    The Indian rupee also strengthened, opening 32 paise higher at 94.92 per dollar compared to the previous close of 95.24. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) remained net sellers on July 2, offloading shares worth Rs. 1,140.50 crore, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) bought shares worth Rs. 3,159.24 crore.

    Sensex Outlook

    Technically, the Sensex formed a small bullish candle on the daily chart, indicating sustained buying interest after the recent breakout. Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research at Kotak Securities, noted that 76,500 is a key support level for day traders. Above this, bullish momentum could push the index to 77,500-77,800. However, a fall below 76,500 could trigger selling pressure, with potential retests at 76,200 and 76,000.

    Nifty 50 Outlook

    Chouhan added that the Nifty 50 also formed a small bullish candle on the daily chart, with intraday charts showing a reversal pattern. He sees 23,900 as a critical support level. As long as the index stays above this, it could target 24,150-24,250.

    Bank Nifty Outlook

    Bank Nifty settled at 58,033.05 on Wednesday, up 490.15 points (0.85%), forming a bullish candle. Sudeep Shah, Head of Technical and Derivatives Research at SBI Securities, said immediate resistance is in the 58,400-58,500 zone. A sustainable move above this could push the index to 58,900 and then 59,300 in the short term. On the downside, support is at 57,600-57,500.

  • Nifty 50 and Sensex at Critical Juncture: Support and Resistance Levels Amid Mixed Global Signals

    Nifty 50 and Sensex at Critical Juncture: Support and Resistance Levels Amid Mixed Global Signals

    Indian equity markets are poised for a flat opening on Wednesday as global cues remain mixed. GIFT Nifty is trading near 23,994, down roughly 16 points from its previous close, signaling a lack of strong directional bias.

    On Tuesday, the Sensex slipped 249.70 points (0.33%) to close at 76,478.67, while the Nifty 50 declined 80.50 points (0.34%) to settle at 23,865.75. Midcap and smallcap indices outperformed, gaining 0.4% and 1% respectively. The rupee opened flat at Rs. 94.66 per dollar.

    Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold shares worth Rs. 2,556.75 crore on Tuesday, whereas domestic institutional investors (DIIs) bought stocks worth Rs. 6,842.34 crore, according to NSE data.

    Sensex Outlook

    Technically, the Sensex formed a small bearish candle on daily charts with non-directional intraday activity, indicating indecisiveness. Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research at Kotak Securities, said, “On the upside, 77,000 would act as a crucial resistance level. A successful breakout above 77,000 could push the market up to 77,500-77,700. On the flip side, if the market falls below the 50-day SMA or 76,300, selling pressure is likely to accelerate. Below the same, the market could retest levels of 75,800-75,500.”

    Nifty 50 Outlook

    The Nifty 50 ended lower for the third consecutive session and is approaching an important support zone. Bajaj Broking Research noted, “The 23,800-23,750 zone remains the immediate support area, coinciding with the previous gap region and lows recorded over the past two weeks. If the index holds above this level, it could witness a pullback towards 24,035 and subsequently 24,120 in the coming sessions.” The brokerage identifies the next major support around 23,500, with significant resistance between 24,500 and 24,600. They believe the overall bias remains positive and the current breather should be used as a buying opportunity.

    Bank Nifty Outlook

    Bank Nifty fell 184.45 points (0.32%) to close at 57,542.90, forming a small bearish candle. Bajaj Broking Research said the index is consolidating around April 2026 highs. A decisive move above last week’s peak could trigger fresh upside towards 59,200. However, failure to break resistance may keep the index range-bound between 57,000 and 58,500. The brokerage maintains a positive bias and recommends using the current breather as a buying opportunity.

  • Indian Stock Market Holds Steady: Nifty 50 at 24,000 Support, Sensex Targets 76,800 Amid Geopolitical Uncertainty

    Indian Stock Market Holds Steady: Nifty 50 at 24,000 Support, Sensex Targets 76,800 Amid Geopolitical Uncertainty

    The Indian stock markets are set to open on a flat note following mixed global signals, with the Middle East uncertainty and US-Iran peace talks keeping investors cautious. GIFT Nifty is trading at 23,994, indicating a slight positive start with a premium of around 20 points from its previous Nifty futures close.

    On Monday, the Sensex declined 372.10 points (0.48%) to close at 76,728.37, while the Nifty 50 fell 109.75 points (0.46%) to settle at 23,946.25. The Indian rupee opened marginally lower at Rs. 94.57 per dollar versus the previous close of Rs. 94.53.

    Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) remained net sellers, offloading equities worth Rs. 1,350.10 crore on June 29, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) emerged as net buyers with Rs. 2,801.45 crore.

    Sensex Outlook

    Technically, the Sensex formed a bearish candle on the daily charts, indicating further weakness from current levels. According to Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research at Kotak Securities, “76,800 would act as an immediate reference point for day traders. Below this level, the market could retest the levels of 76,200-76,000. On the flip side, above 76,800, the rally could continue towards 77,300-77,500. The intraday market texture is non-directional. Hence, level-based trading would be the ideal strategy for day traders.”

    Nifty 50 Outlook

    The Nifty 50 continued to consolidate around the psychologically important 24,000 mark after forming a small bearish candle with a lower high and lower low on the daily chart, indicating a corrective bias in the short term.

    Bajaj Broking Research noted, “Immediate resistance remains in the 24,100-24,150 zone, which coincides with Monday’s intraday high. On the downside, immediate support is placed between 23,900 and 23,800. Analysts also identify the 23,500-23,600 region as a crucial short-term support area, while the next major resistance is near the 24,600.”

    The brokerage added, “We believe overall bias is positive and the current breather should be used as a buying opportunity as we expect Nifty to gradually head towards the 24,500-24,600 levels in the coming weeks.”

    Bank Nifty Outlook

    On Monday, Bank Nifty declined 449.70 points (0.77%) to close at 57,727.35, forming a small bearish candle with a lower high and lower low, signaling consolidation. Bajaj Broking stated, “Going ahead, bias remains positive, and dips towards the support area of 57,000 should be used as a buying opportunity for a gradually upward move towards 59,200 levels in the coming sessions, being the 138.2% external retracement of the previous decline 57,456-52,783.”

    The brokerage noted that the banking index continues to find strong support around the 57,000 level. As long as this support holds, the overall outlook is expected to remain positive.

    Sensex Holds 77,000, Nifty Targets 24,500 – Key Levels and Market Outlook

    The Indian equity benchmarks are expected to open on a flat note Monday, tracking weakness in global markets amid renewed Middle East tensions. GIFT Nifty traded at 24,093, a discount of 9 points from the previous Nifty futures close, signaling a cautious start.

    Friday’s Market Wrap

    On Friday, the Sensex gained 109.25 points (0.14%) to end at 77,100.47, while the Nifty 50 rose 34.35 points (0.14%) to settle at 24,056. The rupee opened marginally stronger at ₹94.35 per dollar versus Thursday’s close of ₹94.40.

    Sensex Outlook

    The Sensex formed a High Wave candle on the weekly chart for the second straight week, signaling indecision among traders. However, the index held above the 77,000 mark, keeping the near-term tone positive.

    Resistance: 77,800–78,000 — a clean break above this zone would strengthen the bullish case, according to Aakash Shah, Research Analyst at Choice Equity Broking.

    Support: 76,200–76,400 — expected to attract buying interest from positional investors. A sustained move below this band could trigger consolidation and short-term profit-booking.

    Nifty 50 Outlook

    The Nifty 50 formed a small bearish candle with a long upper shadow on the daily chart, indicating profit booking after a strong intraday rally.

    • Immediate resistance: 25,250–25,300 (confluence of last week’s high and the gap-down area of May 8, 2026).
    • Immediate support: 23,900–23,800 — Bajaj Broking advises using dips as buying opportunities.
    • Key short-term support zone: 23,500–23,600.
    • Major resistance: 24,600.

    The brokerage expects the Nifty to gradually move toward the 24,500–24,600 range over the coming weeks, supported by a positive overall market structure.

    Bank Nifty Outlook

    Bank Nifty rose 26.70 points (0.05%) to close at 58,177.05 on Friday, forming a small-bodied candle with an upper wick, suggesting profit booking at higher levels.

    Support: 57,000 — the cluster of last two weeks’ lows. As long as the index holds above this level, the short-term trend remains favorable.

  • Indian Stock Market Set to Open Higher as Brent Crude Drops 1.80% to $72.41 – Nifty, Sensex Outlook

    Indian Stock Market Set to Open Higher as Brent Crude Drops 1.80% to $72.41 – Nifty, Sensex Outlook

    The Indian stock markets are expected to open higher on Thursday, supported by mixed global cues and a sharp decline in oil prices. GIFT Nifty was trading at 24,133.5, indicating a gap-up start with a premium of 110.5 points over the previous Nifty futures close.

    Brent crude futures fell 1.80% to $72.41 a barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) dropped 1.59% to $69.22 a barrel. The fall in crude prices is seen as a positive for India, a major oil importer, as it helps reduce input costs and inflation pressures.

    Previous Session Recap

    On Wednesday, the Sensex surged 790.54 points, or 1.04%, to close at 76,991.22, while the Nifty 50 advanced 197.55 points, or 0.83%, to settle at 24,021.65. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) remained net sellers, offloading shares worth Rs. 1,843 crore. Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) net bought Rs. 3,637 crore, providing support to the market.

    Sector-wise, Realty and IT indices outperformed, rallying over 2%, whereas the Defence index was the worst performer, shedding over 2%.

    Sensex Technical Outlook

    Technically, the Sensex formed a promising reversal pattern on intraday charts and a bullish candle on daily charts. Shrikant Chouhan, Head of Equity Research at Kotak Securities, said, “We are of the view that as long as the market is trading above 76,700, the pullback formation is likely to continue. On the higher side, the rally could extend to 77,500-77,700. On the flip side, below 76,700, sentiment could change. Below this level, the market could retest 76,400-76,200.”

    Nifty 50 Technical Outlook

    The Nifty 50 staged a strong rebound on Wednesday and managed to close above the psychologically important 24,000 level. On the daily chart, the index formed a bullish piercing line candlestick pattern, indicating strong buying demand near the support zone around 23,800. This support area is significant as it coincides with the previous gap zone and the confluence of the 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages (EMAs).

    Bajaj Broking Research noted, “Nifty managed to hold above the support area of 23,800 and witnessed a pullback. Going ahead, bias remains positive and the index is expected to head higher towards last week’s high of 24,190 levels in the coming session. Dips, if any, towards 23,900 should be used as a buying opportunity.” Immediate support is seen around 23,900, while stronger short-term support is placed in the 23,500-23,600 zone. On the upside, the next major resistance is near 24,600.

    Bank Nifty Technical Outlook

    The Bank Nifty rose 966.60 points, or 1.69%, to close at 58,150.35, forming a bullish engulfing pattern on the daily chart. Bajaj Broking said, “Going ahead, bias remains positive and the index is expected to gradually head towards 59,200 levels in the coming sessions, being the measuring implication of the recent range breakout and the 138.2% external retracement of the previous decline 57,456-52,783.” Technical indicators continue to support the positive outlook. The lows recorded over the past two weeks near 57,000 remain a crucial support zone, and the index is expected to maintain its bullish bias as long as it holds above this level.

  • Dalal Street Closed for Muharram: Key Support and Resistance Levels for Sensex, Nifty, and Bank Nifty Ahead of June 29 Trading

    Dalal Street Closed for Muharram: Key Support and Resistance Levels for Sensex, Nifty, and Bank Nifty Ahead of June 29 Trading

    The Indian stock markets are closed today in observance of Muharram, with no trading on the BSE and NSE across equity, equity derivatives, securities lending and borrowing (SLB), currency derivatives, and interest rate derivatives segments. The commodities markets will remain closed for the morning session (9:00 AM to 5:00 PM) but will operate as usual for the evening session (5:00 PM to 11:30 PM / 11:55 PM).

    On the last trading day before the holiday, the Sensex gained 109.25 points, or 0.14%, to close at 77,100.47, while the Nifty 50 rose 34.35 points, or 0.14%, to settle at 24,056. However, both indices gave up most of their intraday gains as investors booked profits late in the session. The rupee strengthened by 25 paise against the US dollar, closing at ₹94.40, compared to the previous close of ₹94.65.

    Sensex Outlook

    Technically, the Sensex formed a bearish candle with a long upper wick, indicating weak momentum after a strong opening. Immediate support is seen at 76,933; a break below this level could invite a deeper correction toward 76,000 in the short term. The 77,500 level will act as a crucial resistance, and a sustained break above this could push the index toward 78,000.

    Nifty 50 Outlook

    The Nifty 50 has immediate support at 23,950 for Monday. Positive weekend global cues and a resolution to the Iran-US situation could help the index hold above 24,000 at the open, targeting 24,200 as the first resistance. However, the monthly expiry of the Sensex on Monday could create cross-index volatility, particularly in the afternoon session, potentially pushing the Nifty below 24,000 temporarily even if broader predictions remain positive.

    Bank Nifty Outlook

    The Bank Nifty closed the week at 58,177.05, following a 1.68% surge on the previous Wednesday’s expiry and subsequent consolidation. Unlike the Sensex, the Bank Nifty has no direct expiry event on Monday. However, the Sensex monthly expiry on June 29, 2026, directly impacts HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank, which could create indirect volatility in the Bank Nifty. Support is at 57,900, with an upside target of 58,500 if global cues improve over the weekend.

    All eyes are now on the June 29 trading session as traders reposition after the holiday break.
