One can expect revised higher levels target of around 22,700 till upper end of channel as per daily chart is attached in short-term.

9000 is strong support & 9200/9500 levels in strong Resistance levels on Nifty based on derivative option open interest data for the expiry perspectives next week. Any kind of short-term correction or consolidation is buying opportunity for medium to long term investor. One can expect higher level targets in medium to long-term.

Momentum indicators Daily KST & daily MACD both are in SELL indicating weakness, but one should be stock specific and follow the trend with trail stoploss levels till it reverses from trading perspectives.
