Ajit Mishra – SVP, Research, Religare Broking

Markets started the week on a volatile note but managed to end in the green. The initial reaction to earnings from heavyweights like Reliance, ICICI Bank, and HDFC Bank led to sharp swings, followed by a lackluster phase in the middle. However, renewed buying interest in select index majors during the final hours helped the Nifty close near the day’s high at 25,090.70.

On the sectoral front, the trend was mixed. Financials, banking, and metals emerged as the top gainers, while FMCG and IT closed in the red. A similar pattern was seen in the broader markets, with the midcap index gaining over half a percent, while the smallcap index ended almost flat.

The market currently reflects a tug-of-war between bulls and bears, with the focus primarily on earnings for further direction. While the bulls have successfully defended the 24,900 level on the Nifty so far, a decisive move above 25,250 is essential to regain full control. Failing this, we may witness a resumption of profit booking. Given the prevailing volatility driven by earnings announcements, participants should prioritize risk management over aggressive positioning.

Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities

Today, the benchmark indices intraday recovered from lower levels. The Nifty ends 122 points higher, while the Sensex was up by 443 points. Among sectors, the Financial Services index outperformed, rallying 1.63 percent, whereas profit booking was seen in the Oil & Gas sector, leading the Oil & Gas index down by 1.11 percent.

Technically, after an early morning intraday selloff, the market took support near 24,900/81500 and bounced back sharply. From the day's lowest point, the market recovered over 200 /700 points. A reversal intraday formation and a bullish candle near the 50-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) indicate that a pullback formation is likely to continue in the near future.

For traders, 25,000/82000 and 24,900/81500 would act as key support zones. As long as the market is trading above 24,900/81500, the pullback formation is likely to continue. On the higher side, the bounce back could extend up to the 20-day SMA or 25,300/82800. Further upside may also continue, potentially lifting the market up to 25,375/83000. On the flip side, a decline below 24,900/81500 would make the uptrend vulnerable.

Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities

After showing weakness in the last couple of sessions, Nifty shifted into a sizable bounce back on Monday and closed the day higher by 122 points. Nifty showed knee jerk action soon after the opening but was managed to display strength on the upside in the mid to later part of the session and closed at highs.

A reasonable positive candle was formed on the daily chart with lower shadow. Technically, this market action indicates pullback rally in the market after the downside breakout of immediate support at 25000 levels on Friday.

The negative chart pattern like lower highs and lower lows continued on the daily chart and Monday's swing low of 24882 could be considered as a new lower low of the pattern. Hence, any further upside could be a sell on rise opportunity.

The short-term trend of Nifty remains weak, but a decisive move above the key overhead resistance of 25250 levels is likely to negate the bearish sentiment in the near term. Any weakness from the lower highs could revisit the recent swing low of 24882 levels.

Vaibhav Vidwani, Research Analyst at Bonanza

Today, the Indian stock market ended on a positive note, with the Nifty 50 closing at around 25,092, up approximately 0.5% from the previous close. The key driver behind this upbeat session was the strong quarterly earnings reports from major private sector banks, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank, whose shares rose around +2.2% following their better-than-expected profits. This buoyed the financial sector, which was the lone major sector with a notable gain of about 1.2%, offsetting losses seen in other sectors.

Despite the broader market showing some signs of caution, especially as Reliance Industries saw a 3.2% dip due to concerns over softness in its oil-to-chemicals and retail segments, the financial stocks’ performance helped lift the benchmarks.

The Sensex also climbed by about 0.5% to nearly 82,200, supported primarily by the banking rally. The mid-cap and small-cap segments remained largely subdued, indicating selective buying focused on quality blue-chip names.

The market’s resilience amid mixed corporate results and sectoral divergences. The strong earnings by the banking sector are instilling confidence, but investors remain cautious ahead of a heavy earnings week.

Dilip Parmar, Research Analyst, HDFC Securities

The Indian Rupee has experienced considerable weakness in recent days and today's it remains the weakest among Asian currencies. The primary catalysts for this decline are consistent dollar demand from the importers and a continued exodus of foreign capital.

On the technical front, the spot USD/INR has immediate resistance at 86.65 and a significant support at 85.80.

July 21, 2025· 15:43 IST

Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities

The Nifty remained volatile during the day as traders awaited more clarity on the US-India deals. During the session, Nifty found support around the 50 EMA on the daily timeframe, leading to an intraday recovery. The RSI continued to show a bearish crossover on the daily chart, indicating weak momentum.

Going forward, 24,900 remains a crucial support level for the index; a decisive fall below this level is likely to empower the bears. On the other hand, resistance is placed at 25,200–25,260.
