However, sharp decline in Thursday's session saw the index breach the 25,000 levels on the weekly expiry session and closed at 24888 levels.
The Nifty has strong support in the range of 24,600–24,700 zone, which coincides with the confluence of the 20-day EMA and the rising trendline connecting the previous two significant swing lows. Sustaining above this support band would likely set the stage for a continuation of the uptrend towards immediate resistance levels at 25,300 and 25,500 in the near term.
Importantly, the index has posted an impressive 16% rally from its April lows. Following this, it underwent a healthy consolidation phase with a mild 3% retracement before resuming its upward trajectory. This pattern of extended rallies followed by shallow corrections is characteristic of a structurally strong bull market, suggesting the potential for further upside. Any intermediate dips from current levels should be viewed as incremental buying opportunities.
Market internals continue to exhibit strength, particularly in the broader indices. Outperformance is evident in the relative strength ratio of the Nifty 500 versus the Nifty 100, which has been on a steady upward trajectory. Furthermore, market breadth remains robust, with approximately 62% of stocks within the Nifty Midcap 100 and Nifty Small cap 100 trading above their 200-day Simple Moving Averages—a technical indicator that bodes well for the sustainability and depth of the ongoing uptrend.

NIFTY BANK
Bank Nifty post breakdown above the recent 5 weeks broader consolidation range (56,000-53,500) on last Friday has rallied to a fresh all time high of 57049 on Monday's session. However, profit booking at higher levels saw the index gave up its gains and closed Thursday session around 56082 levels.
The index is currently trading above its short- and long-term moving averages signaling overall positive bias.
The last four sessions profit booking have helped the index to cool off the overbought condition. We expect the index to hold above the support area of 55,200-55,500 and head higher towards 57,000 and 57,700 levels in the coming weeks.

Sensex, Nifty gain 1.3% on RBI norms, Trump's pause on Iran strike

Domestic markets rose on Friday, propelled by gains in banking and other heavyweights, after the relaxation of project finance regulations. US President Donald Trump's announcement that he would take two weeks to decide whether to intervene directly in the Iran–Israel conflict provided some relief to investors. The benchmark Sensex closed at 82,408 on Friday, up 1,046 points or 1.3 per cent. The Nifty also ended the session at 25,112, gaining 319 points or 1.3 per cent. HDFC Bank, Reliance Industries, Bharti Airtel and ICICI Bank accounted for over half of the index gains. Both the Sensex and the Nifty rose 1.6 per cent over the week. The total market capitalisation of BSE-listed companies increased by ₹5 trillion, reaching ₹448 trillion. The final project finance norms will take effect from October 1, 2025. The Nifty Bank index increased by 1.2 per cent. Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) were buyers to the tune of nearly ₹8,000 crore, while domestic investors pulled out ₹3,050 crore. Institutional investor activity was higher than usual due to adjustments related to the latest rebalancing of BSE and FTSE indices. Passive funds tracking the Sensex index had to sell Nestlé and IndusInd Bank, which will be excluded from the index from Monday. On the other hand, they bought new entrants Trent and Bharat Electronics. Other Sensex components also saw changes due to weight adjustments. Meanwhile, the White House's statement on Iran eased concerns about US involvement in the Middle East conflict. In a dictated message on Thursday, President Trump said there was a significant chance of negotiations with Iran, which may or may not happen soon, and that he would decide whether to join Israel's strikes against Iran within the next two weeks. Trump's latest statement is seen as a step back from earlier harsh rhetoric. Israel has continued to attack Iran's nuclear sites and has warned of overthrowing Tehran's leadership, while Iran maintains its stance of no negotiations with the US as long as Israel's assault continues. The Brent crude price fell by 3 per cent and was trading at $75.7 on Friday. However, in June, crude prices had risen by 21 per cent. Gold declined by 0.7 per cent and was trading at $3,348. It fell by 2.4 per cent during the week. 'Equity indices surged as Middle East tensions eased, with the risk of immediate military action reduced due to expected US dialogue with Iran. This development led to a correction in crude prices, favouring domestic markets and boosting foreign investors' sentiment,' said Vinod Nair, head of research at Geojit Financial Services. The market breadth was strong, with 2,463 stocks advancing and 1,484 declining. Moving forward, the trajectory of the Middle East conflict and US trade policy will determine the market's direction. 'The outlook remains positive, and a decisive move above 25,200 on the Nifty would signal the end of the ongoing five-week consolidation phase and pave the way for the 25,600–25,800 zone. In the absence of any major domestic events, global markets will continue to guide sentiment,' said Ajit Mishra, senior vice-president, research, at Religare Broking.

Sensex jumps 1.3%, Nifty ends above 25,100

Domestic benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty surged 1.3 per cent on Friday as investors' risk appetite improved after reports suggested de-escalation in Israel-Iran conflict. The BSE's Sensex rose 1.29 per cent, or 1,046.3 points, to close at 82,408.17. The broader Nifty climbed 1.29 per cent, or 319.15 points, to end at 25,112.4. 'Markets showed strength and gained over a percent after three sessions of lackluster movement. Sentiment improved after the news report indicated a possible de-escalation in the Iran-Israel conflict, with the US signaling a delay in potential action, which led to a softening in crude oil prices,' the said Ajit Mishra, Senior Vice President, Research, Religare Broking Ltd. US President Donald Trump has said that a decision on whether or not the US will get directly involved in the Iran-Israel conflict within two weeks, according to media reports. Markets witnessed consolidation after the recent spell of subdued trend, as strong European cues and positive Dow Futures triggered a massive rally in local benchmarks. 'Investors also resorted to short covering ahead of next week's monthly derivatives expiry. Despite the rebound, investors would still maintain caution due to the ongoing West Asia conflict, as any spike in crude oil prices owing to escalation in tension could fuel uncertainty and spook markets,' said Prashanth Tapse, Senior VP (Research), Mehta Equities Ltd. Additionally, consistent buying by FIIs in the cash segment further supported the market. All key sectors participated in the rally, with realty, financials, and metals emerging as top gainers. The broader indices also saw relief, posting gains in the range of 1-1.4 per cent. The Nifty Realty ended 2.11 per cent up and the Nifty Metal climbed 1.09 per cent.

According to Religare Broking's Mishra, the outlook remains positive, and a decisive move above 25,200 on the Nifty would signal the end of the ongoing five-week consolidation phase and open the path toward the 25,600–25,800 zone. In the absence of any major domestic events, global markets will continue to guide sentiment. 'We maintain our positive yet cautious stance and advise focusing on stock selection, particularly in line with sectoral trends,' he said.
