  • Midcap, smallcap momentum: Both indices outperform, as domestic buying remains strong in broader markets amid sideway consolidation in largecaps.
  • IT sector slips: Nifty IT lags, pulling back nearly 0.5% after recent outperformance and global tech volatility.
  • Banks stay firm: Nifty Bank up (+0.13%), with both private and PSU banks attracting fresh flows on improving sector sentiment.
  • Volatility low: Despite early fluctuations, India VIX remains near historic lows, favoring bullish structure barring major negative triggers.
  • Technical view: Nifty support at 24,920–24,850; sustained trade above 25,000 could trigger an upmove towards 25,100–25,200. Correction risk arises below 24,850.

What to Watch

  • Index watch: Nifty needs to close decisively above 25,000 for next leg of the rally; Sensex eyes 81,650.
  • Sector focus: Momentum in midcaps, smallcaps, and banks could lead near-term; watch IT for signs of a turnaround.
  • Trading strategy: Maintain disciplined risk management, avoid chasing rallies in overvalued segments, and monitor breakout/breakdown levels for intraday trades.
