The 100-MMA stands at ₹2,198 levels, and has provided consistent support for the stock till date - the stock has never-ever closed below this long-term moving average.  ALSO READ | Nifty Auto sees Golden Cross, 5 stocks with similar patterns; how to trade?  Meanwhile, as the stock challenges the 200-DMA hurdle, it also faces near resistance around ₹2,488 and ₹2,542 levels.
