19 Jul 2024 Evaluate

After closing all-time high point in the previous session, Indian equity benchmark -- Nifty -- ended Friday’s trading session in deep red, amid profit booking by market participants ahead of the Union Budget. After making positive start, soon index slipped below its neutral line and began its southward journey, as traders paid no heed towards FICCI’s Economic Outlook Survey stated that Indian economy is expected to grow at an annual median GDP growth of 7 per cent in 2024-25. Traders overlooked Crisil’s report noted that India's exports have shown resilience amidst global challenges, with merchandise exports rising by 5.8% to $109.96 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Index extended its losses in afternoon session, as sentiments remained negative after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in its monthly bulletin stated that despite the overall positive trajectory, inflation remains a key concern for the Indian economy as the uptick in June 2024 has derailed its disinflation path. Traders overlooked the think tank Global Trade Research Initiative’s (GTRI) latest report stating that the steps such as increasing exports, making local currency trading workable and a free trade agreement with the Eurasian Economic Union will help boost trade between India and Russia. In last leg of trade, index touched near day’s low point and ended in deep red with over a percent cut.

All the sectorial indices ended in red. The top gainers from the F&O segment were Infosys, Page Industries and ITC. On the other hand, the top losers Persistent Systems, Cummins India and Multi Commodity Exchange of India. In the index option segment, maximum OI continues to be seen in the 25400 - 25600 calls and 23900 - 24100 puts indicating this is the trading range expectation.
