Technical Overview
Nifty 50
Nifty opened flat but quickly climbed above the 25,000 psychological mark, making it a key intraday support. The index is showing signs of strength despite consolidation around resistance zones near 25,050–25,100.
- Immediate Support: 24,920 – 24,950
- Immediate Resistance: 25,100 – 25,150
- Indicators: RSI near 62, showing moderate bullishness; MACD trending positive with scope for continuation.
If Nifty sustains above 25,000, the upside momentum could test 25,200–25,250 in the near term.
Bank Nifty
Bank Nifty is showing resilience after last week’s mild correction. The index has tested intraday highs near 55,300, but heavyweights like HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank are trading range-bound, preventing a sharp breakout.
- Immediate Support: 55,000
- Resistance Zone: 55,300 – 55,500
- Indicators: RSI at 58, suggesting consolidation; MACD marginally bullish.
A close above 55,500 may trigger further momentum towards 56,000+ levels.
Sensex
Sensex has inched closer to its all-time highs, trading near 81,800. The intraday chart pattern suggests buying interest in IT, FMCG, and auto counters is helping the index sustain higher levels.
- Support Zone: 81,200 – 81,350
- Resistance Zone: 81,800 – 82,000
- Trend: Bullish bias intact as long as Sensex holds above 81,500.
Fin Nifty
Fin Nifty is trading with mild gains, holding comfortably above 26,300. The intraday high of 26,379 suggests buyers are active in NBFCs and private banks.
- Support: 26,250 – 26,300
- Resistance: 26,400 – 26,500
- Outlook: Momentum positive; could test 26,500+ levels if buying sustains.
Sector-Wise Performance
1. IT Sector
The Nifty IT index is witnessing strength on the back of positive global tech earnings. Companies like Infosys, TCS, and HCL Tech are trading 0.5–1% higher, contributing to the Nifty’s stability. Weakness in the dollar index and steady demand outlook are aiding sentiment.
2. Banking & Financials
Private banks are largely range-bound, while PSU banks like SBI and Bank of Baroda are showing mild traction. NBFCs like Bajaj Finance and HDFC Ltd are also witnessing intraday gains, supporting Fin Nifty.
3. Auto Sector
The auto pack continues to see sustained interest as August sales forecasts remain strong. Maruti, M&M, and Tata Motors are trading positively, while two-wheeler majors like Bajaj Auto remain flat.
4. FMCG
Consumer staples are providing steady support, with HUL, ITC, and Nestle trading firm. Defensive buying is evident as investors prefer safe bets ahead of US Fed commentary later this week.
5. Metals & Energy
The metal index is witnessing mild profit booking after a sharp rally last week. Global commodity prices remain range-bound. Reliance Industries is trading flat, keeping energy index under check.
6. Realty & Infra
Realty counters like DLF and Godrej Properties are trading slightly lower, while infra-linked stocks are witnessing stock-specific buying. Investors remain cautious on higher interest rate concerns.
Global Cues Driving Market Sentiment
- US Markets: Wall Street closed mixed last Friday as traders remained cautious ahead of Fed Chairman Powell’s upcoming speech at Jackson Hole. Dow Jones ended flat, while Nasdaq saw mild gains.
- Asian Markets: Markets in Japan and Hong Kong traded positively, while Shanghai remained muted.
- Crude Oil: Brent crude prices are steady around $79/barrel, offering relief to Indian macros.
- Dollar & Rupee: The dollar index is consolidating around 103 levels, while the Indian rupee is steady near ₹83.20/$, keeping importers and exporters balanced.
Key Market News Driving Sentiment
- FII/DII Flows: Early reports indicate foreign inflows into large-cap stocks, especially in financials.
- IPO Buzz: Upcoming mid-cap IPOs are attracting investor attention, with oversubscription expected in some issues.
- Global Policy Watch: Investors await signals from the US Fed on interest rate trajectory, which could influence global liquidity flows.
Outlook for the Rest of the Day
- Nifty: If sustained above 25,000, the index may attempt a move towards 25,150 by the closing session.
- Bank Nifty: Watch for a breakout above 55,300–55,500 range; otherwise, consolidation likely.
- Sensex: Likely to attempt record highs above 82,000 if global cues remain supportive.
- Fin Nifty: Could test 26,500 if NBFC momentum sustains.
Conclusion
The Indian stock market is holding steady above crucial levels in the mid-day session of 25th August 2025. While Nifty has reclaimed and sustained above 25,000, Sensex is edging towards record levels. The short-term trend remains bullish with sector-specific participation from IT, FMCG, and autos, while metals and realty remain subdued.
Investors should watch for intraday breakouts around Nifty 25,100 and Bank Nifty 55,500 for further cues, while global developments and US Fed commentary later in the week will be key triggers.
