Unmesh Sharma, Head of Institutional Equities at HDFC Securities, expressed skepticism about the IT sector, stating it is not a strong buy due to the Nifty IT index being fully valued, which limits potential returns. He emphasized a more favorable outlook on consumer discretionary stocks, particularly consumer durables, which are expected to maintain healthy growth driven by short-term factors.
The Indian rupee is projected to depreciate further, potentially reaching 85 against the US dollar due to a robust dollar and sluggish economic growth in India. Currency experts indicate that the USDINR pair may rise as the Dollar Index has surged approximately 3% recently, currently trading at 106.26.
The Nifty 50 began the December series strongly, rising nearly 1% to close at 24,131 after a previous decline, indicating a bullish reversal. Support is seen at 23,900, while the index aims to overcome the crucial resistance at 24,350, with potential for further gains towards 25,000. Technical indicators suggest a positive trend, reinforcing expectations of continued upward movement.
LIC's potential acquisition of a 50 percent stake in ManipalCigna Health Insurance could significantly disrupt the health insurance sector, offering new growth opportunities for the state-owned insurer. Following the news, LIC shares rose over 2 percent, while competitors like Star Health and Niva Bupa saw declines. Analysts warn that standalone insurers may need to diversify into life insurance to avoid losing revenue streams amid intensified competition from LIC's entry.
Dalal Street is set for a robust opening on November 25, following the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance's significant victory in the Maharashtra Assembly elections. Experts predict the Nifty could approach the 24,000-mark, with potential gains of 1 to 1.5 percent, reflecting heightened investor confidence and continuity in economic policies. The unexpected scale of the victory has further fueled optimism in the markets.
Adani Group stocks plummeted following Gautam Adani's indictment in New York for alleged bribery and fraud, leading to a significant sell-off in public sector lenders like SBI, BoB, and PNB. Analysts view this as a temporary reaction, suggesting it presents a buying opportunity due to the banks' strong fundamentals and improved asset quality. They anticipate recovery as the Adani Group provides further clarity on the situation.
Diwali 2024 is expected to bring tepid returns and increased volatility for Indian markets, as multiple concerns loom.

Bears have tightened their grip on the Nifty 50, which fell nearly 1% to close at 24,181, marking its lowest level since August 14.

Analysts indicate a persistent downtrend, with the index trading below key moving averages and forming lower highs and lows for four consecutive weeks.
The Nifty 50 closed at 24,399, down 36 points, marking its fourth consecutive day of decline. Despite forming a Doji candlestick pattern, which suggests a potential rebound, the overall negative trend raises concerns about sustainability, with resistance expected at 24,500-24,600. A drop below 24,300 could lead to further selling pressure.
The Nifty 50 continued its downtrend for the third session, closing at 24,436 after hitting a low of 24,378. It must hold the 24,350-24,400 range to potentially bounce back towards 24,600-24,700; otherwise, it risks falling to the 24,000 support level. A move above 24,605 could signal a short-term positive shift, despite the prevailing negative chart pattern.
