The Nifty's 23,000 mark remains the key level to track on the upside, with a sustained move potentially triggering an upmove toward 23,200. On the downside, the 22,650 to 22,600 zone serves as immediate support, while the 22,875 to 22,800 zone offers further support according to Kotak Securities.
Nifty Bank closed above the important 55,500 resistance level following a 500-point upmove driven by largecap banks. While it briefly crossed 56,000, it failed to sustain that level due to pressure from Yes Bank shares. Analysts note that 55,500 should act as support, with 56,000 serving as the crucial upside level to watch.
Wipro and Tech Mahindra are slated for major earnings reactions. Additionally, companies like Federal Bank, Bajaj Housing Finance, Urban Company, Crompton Greaves, and Oberoi Realty are reporting their September quarter numbers, alongside results from 360 ONE WAM, Angel One, and Jio Financial.
