Markets extended their uptrend on Wednesday, with the Nifty 50 closing at 25,875.80, up 0.47%. The index opened firm and maintained its upward momentum throughout the session, supported by strong buying in heavyweight counters across sectors. Sectorally, IT, auto, and pharma outperformed, while realty and metal ended on a muted note. The overall market breadth remained positive, aided by gains of nearly a percent each in the midcap and smallcap indices, reflecting improving risk appetite among participants.

The rally was fueled by optimism over improving trade dialogue prospects between India and the U.S., coupled with encouraging Q2 earnings from key corporates that further lifted investor sentiment.

On the technical front, the Nifty has successfully reclaimed the 25,800 resistance level, with the next target seen around the 26,000–26,100 zone. While some consolidation may emerge on Thursday owing to the weekly expiry, the overall tone is expected to stay positive. Beyond the key performing sectors such as metal, banking, and auto, renewed interest is also visible in IT, pharma, and energy. Participants are advised to focus on selective stock opportunities in line with the ongoing rotational sectoral trend, preferring large-cap and large mid-cap names for long positions.

On Wednesday, the benchmark index Nifty 50 opened with a strong gap-up start and maintained positive momentum throughout most of the session. However, profit booking emerged in the final hour, leading to the formation of a high-wave candle on the daily chart, indicating selling pressure at higher levels after an intraday rally. The index eventually settled at the 25875 mark, up 0.70%.

From a technical perspective, Nifty has now recovered nearly 550 points from its recent low, taking support near the 50-day EMA. This rebound underscores the buyers’ attempt to regain control, as price action now points toward a potential retest of the 26000 zone in the near term. The overall structure suggests a shift back in favor of the bulls, though mild profit booking cannot be ruled out.

On the sectoral front, performance remained broadly positive. Except for Nifty Metal and Nifty Realty, which saw mild profit-taking, all other major indices ended in the green. Nifty IT, Nifty Auto, and Nifty Pharma were the top outperformers, showcasing renewed sectoral rotation and sustained buying interest.

In the broader market, sentiment remained robust. The Nifty Midcap 100 scaled a fresh all-time high, while the Nifty Smallcap 100 extended gains, closing 0.79% and 0.82% higher, respectively. The market breadth was firmly positive — out of the Nifty 500 universe, nearly 325 stocks closed in the green, while around 170 ended in the red, reflecting broad-based participation.

Nifty View

Going ahead, the 25760–25730 zone will act as an immediate support area for the index. A break below 25730 could trigger profit booking toward 25560. On the upside, the 26000–26030 zone will act as a key resistance, and a sustained move above 26030 could open the gates for further upside toward 26180 in the near term.

Bank Nifty View

For the banking index, the 57900–57800 zone will serve as immediate support. A breach below 57800 could extend the decline toward 57400. Conversely, the 58500–58600 zone remains a critical resistance, and a sustained breakout above 58600 could drive the index toward 59000 levels in the short term.

Nifty continued its upside momentum for the third consecutive sessions on Wednesday and Nifty closed the day higher by 180 points. After opening with an upside gap of 139 points Nifty moved up further in the early to mid-part of the session. Consolidation was seen towards the end and Nifty finally closed near the highs. The opening upside gap remains unfilled.

A reasonable bull candle was formed on the daily chart with minor upper and lower shadow. Technically, this market action indicates an uptrend continuation pattern. If the present opening up gap remains open for the next 2-3 sessions, then that gap could be considered as a bullish runaway gap, which are normally formed in the middle of the trend.

The underlying short-term trend of Nifty remains positive. The next upside targets to be watched around 26100-26200 levels for the next few sessions. Immediate support is placed at 25700 levels.

Today, the benchmark indices continued their positive momentum. The Nifty ended 181 points higher, while the Sensex was up by 595 points. Among sectors, IT outperformed, rallying nearly 2 percent, whereas despite strong momentum, intraday profit booking was seen in selective Realty and Defense stocks. Technically, after a gap-up open, the market maintained positive momentum throughout the day. On intraday charts, the market is showing a continuation of the uptrend, which supports further upward movement from the current levels.

For trend-following traders, 25775/84300 and 20-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) or 25700/84000 would act as a key support zone. As long as the market is trading above this level, the bullish sentiment is likely to continue. On the higher side, the market could move up to 26000/84800. Further upside may also push the index up to 26100/85000.

On the flip side, if the market falls below the 20-day SMA or below 25700/84000, the sentiment could change. Below this level, traders may consider exiting their long positions.

Urban inflation at 0.88% versus 1.83%, MoM

The Indian rupee has depreciated following its recent surge, primarily weighed down by the resilient dollar index and a noticeable lack of dollar inflows. We continue to see an imbalance between dollar demand and supply, which is pressuring the currency. However, the market is looking toward a potential US-India trade deal as the crucial catalyst needed to provide the rupee with much-needed support.

Near-term, we expect the USDINR pair to consolidate, trading between 88.40 and 88.80.

Today, the Indian stock market ended on a strong note, with the Sensex jumping by 595 points and the Nifty closing at the 25,875 mark. The rally was supported by optimism around progress in the ongoing US-India trade deal talks, positive global cues, including the reopening of the US government, and encouraging exit polls suggesting a decisive NDA victory in the Bihar assembly elections.

Gains were led by sectors like IT, automobiles, and telecom, while some financial stocks came underpressure due to weak asset growth projections from key lenders. Looking ahead, the market is likely to retain a positive bias in the near term. Continued optimism surrounding the US-India trade pact could provide a further lift to export-oriented sectors by lowering tariffs and expanding trade opportunities. The political stability implied by the Bihar election forecasts should also help sustain investor confidence.

However, we will keep an eye on global economic indicators, upcoming corporate earnings, and possible volatility around derivative expiries. Despite these risks, the broader sentiment remains constructive, with expectations of policy continuity and deeper economic reforms keeping the benchmarks well supported.

The Bihar exit polls projecting a clear NDA win have eased concerns about political uncertainty that could have triggered a 5-7% correction in the Nifty if results had turned adverse. This clarity assures investors of steady governance and consistent policy direction. Simultaneously, progress in the US-India trade talks, particularly the possibility of tariff reductions and trade expansion to $500 billion by 2030 has reinforced optimism about stronger economic cooperation and export growth. Together, these developments have strengthened market sentiment and provided a solid foundation for India’s medium term growth outlook.

Global equities rallied on renewed risk appetite, driven by optimism over the anticipated resolution of the U.S. government shutdown and growing expectations of early Fed cuts amid signs of a cooling U.S. labour market. Emerging markets outperformed, reflecting the improvement in global sentiment.

Indian indices mirrored this strength, with large-cap stocks leading gains, particularly in the auto, IT, and pharma sectors. Supportive domestic macro fundamentals—including easing CPI and WPI inflation, a strong GDP outlook, and healthy H2 earnings expectations—continue to underpin positive market momentum.

The Nifty index continues its uptrend and looks strong after a gap-up opening. On the daily chart, the index has continued to rally higher following a retest of the falling channel breakout.

Besides, the index has moved above the 21EMA, confirming the prevailing uptrend. The sentiment might remain positive in the short term, with the index potentially reaching 26,000. On the lower end, immediate support is placed at 25,700.
