Markets Score Weekly Gain Amid GST Boost; Swiggy, Ola In Focus | Closing Bell Live
-
The Nifty 50 gave up nearly 250 points from day’s high on account of profit booking, but still managed to end with moderate gains on September 4. Experts say the trend could strengthen further if the index sustains above the 20- and 50-day EMAs. On the downside, 24,700 has emerged as immediate support, and a breach of this could open the door for a decline toward the 24,500–24,400 zone. On the upside, 25,000 remains the key decisive level for a move toward 25,500. The GIFT Nifty is hinting at a positive start this morning. Among stocks in focus today: Sammaan Capital, Biocon, Aarti Drugs, and Varun Beverages.

Bulls staged a healthy comeback after a day of bearish action, lifting the Nifty 50 higher by 135 points on September 3. However, the index still could not surpass the previous day’s high of 24,756 — a crucial hurdle that will determine the strength of the next upmove. While sentiment improved after Monday’s slide, technical and momentum indicators continue to paint a mixed picture. Experts note that a decisive reclaim and sustain above 24,750 could pave the way for a rally towards 24,800, which coincides with the 50-day EMA, and eventually the psychologically key 25,000 mark. On the flip side, if the index fails to hold this zone, consolidation is likely to continue, with immediate support placed at 24,500 and a strong support zone seen at 24,400–24,300. Meanwhile, the GST Council has cleared the much-awaited two-slab rate structure, a move expected to provide a big boost to consumption and investment sentiment. Autos, FMCG, cement and insurance are the sectors likely to benefit the most and will remain in sharp focus in today’s trade.

The Nifty 50 failed to hold on to follow-up buying on September 2, slipping 176 points from the day’s high to close 0.2 percent lower. The index was unable to sustain above the midline of the Bollinger Bands, tempering sentiment after Monday’s rebound. Analysts expect rangebound trade to persist until the benchmark climbs back above all key moving averages. On the downside, 24,400 is seen as immediate support, with 24,300–24,250 forming a crucial base. On the upside, resistance is pegged at 24,700–24,800, with 25,000 remaining a major hurdle. Meanwhile, the two-day GST Council meeting begins today, where the Centre’s proposal for a two-rate structure will be discussed. FMCG, Autos will continue to be in focus.

Indian equity market bounced back smartly on September 1 after a three-day slide, taking support at 24,420 and ending 0.8% higher to kick off the week on a positive note. That said, sentiment remains cautious, with experts flagging 24,630, the 100-day EMA, as the key hurdle. A sustained move above this level could power the Nifty towards 24,700-24,800 and even 25,000, while a break below 24,420 may drag it back to the August low of 24,330. This morning, GIFT Nifty is pointing to a gap-up open on what will be the index’s first Tuesday F&O expiry. Stocks in focus today include Hero MotoCorp, Hyundai Motor India, and IGL.

Besides, in the current macroeconomic context, he believes India will ultimately settle at tariffs lower than China’s, ensuring the China-plus-one trade strategy pays off.

The Nifty 50 continues to ride on strong momentum, closing above the key psychological milestone of 25,000 for the very first time. The index added 70 points on August 20, extending its winning streak to a fifth straight session, ahead of the weekly F&O expiry. Technical indicators remain supportive of the bulls, with short-term moving averages pointing higher and analysts suggesting that as long as the index sustains above the 25,000 mark, the near-term upside targets of 25,170 and 25,250 remain in play. On the flip side, 24,850 — the low of Monday’s bullish breakaway gap day — is likely to serve as a strong support zone. However, global cues are turning out to be mixed, and early trends from the GIFT Nifty are hinting at a muted start to the trading day.

The Nifty 50 notched its fourth straight gain on August 19, adding 0.4 percent, though it stayed within the previous day’s range. The index continues to trade above key moving averages, with momentum indicators signaling a bullish crossover.
