The blue-chip NSE Nifty 50 index rose 0.92% to 22,327, while the BSE Sensex settled 0.90% higher at 73,651.
Here's how analysts read the market pulse:
«Nifty has rallied significantly, surpassing the 22,500 mark after maintaining momentum beyond 22,100. Furthermore, there's a clear breakout in consolidation on the daily timeframe, signaling rising optimism. Nevertheless, Nifty encountered initial resistance near its previous swing high of 22,526. Consequently, to sustain a continued rally, it must surpass the 22,525 level decisively. On the downside, 22,200 could serve as short-term support,» Rupak De of LKP Securities.
Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research at HDFC Securities, said, «Nifty once again formed a bull candle with high upper shadow, reflecting selling pressure on rises. Nifty rose 1.04% for the week, 1.57% for the month and 1.80% for the quarter. 22526 is proving tough to be breached on the up, while 21973-22180 band could provide the near-term support for the markets.»
