Nifty Overview & Outlook

Indian benchmark indices shot up on the assertion by the Exit Polls regarding a victory for the BJP-led NDA Government in the 2024 elections. Nifty up-move was driven by Adani group and PSUs stocks. The Nifty index, surged to an all-time high with an enthusiastic gap-up opening, resulting in an increase of over 700 points or 3.3% from the previous close. Similarly, the Bank Nifty experienced its first all-time high since April 30 after a gap-up opening, soaring by 4.1%, largely driven by gains in PSU Banks.

Looking at the broader market performance, the Midcap index slightly outperformed, posting gains of 3.5%, while the Smallcap indices lagged behind with relatively moderate gains of just 1.7%.

In terms of sector-specific movements, all sectors closed in the green, with PSU Banking leading the charge, gaining 8.4%, followed by Energy and Realty indices, which saw increases of 6.8% and 6% respectively. Defensive sectors like IT and Pharma saw marginal gains of 0.4% each.

Considering the daily timeframe, the Nifty has broken out of the upward sloping channel pattern we’ve been monitoring, closing above the resistance zone of 23100-23150. This suggests a potential continuation of the rally, with immediate resistance levels at 23425 and 23700. However, the Nifty experienced a gap-up opening followed by a Hanging Man formation at the peak, indicating potential profit booking if the reversal is confirmed in the upcoming session . In case of a correction, we identify 23120 as the immediate support level, followed by 22875.

It’s important to remain cautious ahead of the Election result on 4th June.
