India Market Outlook

  2. Market in Previous Session:

    • The benchmark indices surged sharply during the day but lost most of their gains, highlighting continued market fragility.

    • Investor sentiment faltered following reports of Ukraine's first ATACMS missile strike in a Russian border region.

  3. Nifty Short-Term Outlook:

    • We expect the index to extend consolidation in the range of 23300-23800. A breakout or breakdown will signal a further directional moment.

    • On the higher side, the previous week's breakdown area of 23800 will act as an immediate resistance. A move above that will open upside towards 24050-24100 levels being the presence of 20 days EMA which has acted as stiff resistance in the entire last 7 weeks decline.

    • Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 23,400 followed by 23,360 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 23,680, followed by 23,800.
