Mumbai, June 24, 2025: Today, the benchmark indices witnessed a volatile trading session. After a roller coaster activity, the Nifty ends 72 points higher, while the Sensex was up by 158 points. Among sectors, the PSU Bank index gained the most, rallying 1.40 percent, whereas the Defense index lost the most, shed 2.35 percent. Technically, on the backdrop of strong global sentiment, our market opened with a gap up, but once again, it registered selling pressure at higher levels. From the day's highest level, the market corrected over 300/1000 points. It also formed a bearish candle on the daily charts, indicating temporary weakness. However, the medium-term outlook of the market remains positive.
We are of the view that 25,000/82000 would act as a key support zone for day traders. Above this level, we could expect a technical bounce back up to 25,200–25,300/82500-83000. On the flip side, if the market falls below 25,000/82000, it could extend the correction up to 24,850–24,800/81600-81500. The current market texture is volatile and non-directional; hence, level-based trading would be the ideal strategy for day traders.
Gaurav Garg, Lemonn Markets Desk, adds:
“Indian equity benchmarks pared early gains on Tuesday after fresh geopolitical tensions emerged. The Nifty 50 rose 0.3% to 25,048.2 and the BSE Sensex climbed 0.2% to 82,068.51 by mid-afternoon, but both indexes had surged as much as 1.3% earlier in the session.
Among sectors, financials and IT, which had gained over 1% in early trade, ended with modest gains of 0.9% and 0.01%, respectively. Meanwhile, broader markets remained resilient, with mid- and small-cap indices up about 0.7% each, supported by domestic investor participation.
Investors are now watching oil prices and geopolitical cues closely. A sustained spike in crude could cap any near-term upside in equities despite otherwise supportive domestic fundamentals.”
