Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: The recent rebound from the lower end of the channel near 24,679 highlights strong demand emerging at lower levels. Immediate resistance lies in the 25,150-25,200 zone, which coincides with the 200-day EMA, the upper boundary of the falling channel, and a previous support-turned-resistance area, making it a critical hurdle. 

 

As long as Nifty sustains above 25,000, the near-term tone remains mildly constructive; however, failure to hold this level could lead to consolidation within the 24,800–25,100 range. Unless the index decisively breaks above 25,300 and exits the falling channel, the overall bias remains cautious to bearish, with rallies likely to attract supply at higher levels.

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Market expert view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: The market witnessed a smart recovery following yesterday’s volatile session due to the impact of the STT hike on F&O and the government’s higher borrowing plan for FY27. At the same time, the Budget’s policy continuity with a clear emphasis on growth and fiscal prudence has helped reinforce confidence in the medium‑ to long‑term earnings outlook. 

 

A sharp decline in global crude oil prices has also offered some relief, reflecting signs of easing geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran. Nevertheless, in the near term, market mood is expected to stay cautious due to below‑estimate Q3 earnings and ongoing global tensions.
