«The structural growth opportunity which we say for the speciality chemical players, especially in names like CDMO, China plus one, Europe's energy crisis and Europe plus one, all those structural growth driver were there in last one year also and even right now also we see that they remain intact,» says Rohan Gupta, Nuvama Institutional Equities. What is your sense? Has it bottomed out because for the longest time speciality chemicals have been dealing with one headwind or another. Finally, is there light at the end of the road?

Shilpa Rout, Derivatives Analyst, Prabhudas Lilladher, says Coal India is one of the top picks had today. The other one would be SRF which is also showing a lot of momentum. The chemical and fertiliser space is buzzing very strongly. And from here, SRF can touch Rs 2,750 to 2,800. It has already run up from the time I have been giving this recommendation. But yes, on every decline towards 2,640 also, we can buy. Let’s keep a stop loss at Rs 2,600 or just below that, maybe Rs 2,595 and look for targets towards Rs 2,800. What are you expecting in Nifty and Nifty Bank? Nifty has crossed the 22,700 mark/ Any particular level that one should watch out for as a support and a resistance for the Nifty? Shilpa Rout: We see that there is a resistance at around 22,800 and until and unless we breach on the upside from here, we might not see 22,000, 23,200 coming in very easily. However, there is a limited downside. We have a very strong support at 22,500 as well. So, any sort of dip that you get intraday or maybe a couple of days towards 22,500 should be a buying opportunity and to go long for 22,800 to 23,000 to 23,200 as well.

BJP has sprung a surprise in West Bengal's Birbhum constituency, pitting former IPS officer Debasish Dhar, who was suspended by the Mamata Banerjee government after the 2021 assembly elections, in a bid to halt TMC's Satabdi Roy from winning a fourth consecutive term.

Mondal was arrested by the CBI in 2022 in a money laundering case related to cattle smuggling in West Bengal. He is at present lodged in Delhi's Tihar jail. A political novice, Dhar has been entrusted with the onerous task of putting brakes on the actor-politician from emerging triumphant again in Birbhum in the western part of the state.
