Nifty snaps 4-day losing streak on Friday

19 Apr 2024 Evaluate

Indian equity benchmark -- Nifty -- ended Friday’s trading session with over half a percent gains. Index made a gap-down opening, as market participants were cautious with report stating that India's trade deficit with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has surged, more than doubling since the implementation of the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) in 2010. According to figures released by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, India's exports to ASEAN member countries stood at $25,627.89 million in the year 2010-11, while imports from these nations amounted to $30,607.96 million. Foreign fund outflows also dented sentiments. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) net sold shares worth Rs 4,260.33 crore on April 18, provisional data from the NSE showed. 

However, index cut all of its losses and traded above its neutral line in afternoon session, as investors got support after India's Economic Affairs Secretary Ajay Seth to World Bank has said that despite a challenging global scenario, India's economy has shown robust growth over the past year backed by sustained consumption and investment demand. Traders found support as Krishna Srinivasan, Director, Asia and Pacific Department, at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has said that the Indian economy is doing well and continues to be the world's bright spot and noted easing inflation and growth rate of 6.8 per cent. He also mentioned that inflation should come down to target and it is there on a durable basis. In last leg of trade, index extended its gains to end near day’s high point.

Traders were seen piling up positions in Financial Services, Bank, and Metal, while selling was witnessed in Media, Realty and Pharma. The top gainers from the F&O segment were Bajaj Finance, RBL Bank and Mahindra and Mahindra. On the other hand, the top losers Tata Communications, Lupin and ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company. In the index option segment, maximum OI continues to be seen in the 22900 - 23100 calls and 21900 - 22100 puts indicating this is the trading range expectation.
