Nifty erases initial gains to end with minor losses

23 Feb 2024 Evaluate

After hitting all time record closing high in previous session, Indian equity benchmark -- Nifty -- ended Friday’s trading session in negative terrain with minor losses. Index made an optimistic start, as sentiments got a boost after World Economic Forum President Borge Brende said that India is on track to become a $10 trillion economy in coming years and grab the third-largest slot soon. He described the country as a place with optimism not seen elsewhere in a very fragmented and polarised world. Traders got encouragement as Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said robust tax collections had given the Centre confidence to go ahead with increased capital expenditure and continue investment in infrastructure projects.

However, index turned volatile and traded near neutral line for the most part of the session, amid foreign fund outflows. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) net sold shares worth Rs 1,410.05 crore on February 22, provisional data from the NSE showed. Some cautiousness also came in as India Ratings and Research said India's GDP is expected to grow by 6.5 percent in 2024-25. While this would represent a decline from the statistics ministry's first advance estimate of 7.3 percent for the current financial year, the prospect of the private investment cycle bodes well for the economy. Finally, index ended below its neutral line with marginal losses.

Traders were seen piling up positions in Media, Consumer Durables and Pharma stocks, while selling was witnessed in PSU Bank, Metal and Bank. The top gainers from the F&O segment were Vodafone Idea, Indus Towers and Astral. On the other hand, the top losers Bank of Baroda, Indian Oil Corporation and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation. In the index option segment, maximum OI continues to be seen in the 22900 - 23100 calls and 20900 - 21100 puts indicating this is the trading range expectation.
