Nifty Overview & Outlook

The benchmark Nifty index opened with a significant downward gap amid fresh geopolitical escalation between the US and Iran and settled at 23914 spot levels after a cut of 141 points from its previous closing values.

The Nifty index halted around the support levels of 23800 spot. Technically, Nifty index has multiple supports in the 23800–23600 spot zone, and the possibility of a bounce-back rally up to 24000 spot cannot be ruled out at this juncture. A decisive close above 24000 will be a positive development that could take it higher toward 24200 spot levels in the near term.
