Global markets began April on a positive note, with U.S. equities closing higher amid optimism around a potential de-escalation in Middle East tensions. However, conflicting signals and recent commentary from President Donald Trump have kept uncertainty elevated. As a result, markets continue to remain highly sensitive to headlines, especially those linked to geopolitical developments and oil prices.
Gift Nifty indicates a negative start for Indian equities. The Nifty is expected to trade with high volatility in the range of 22,150 to 22,850 during today’s session, as global cues remain mixed.
Market Recap: Previous Session
Indian equity indices closed on a strong note on April 1, supported by easing concerns around US–Iran tensions.
The Sensex gained 1,186.77 points (1.65%) to close at 73,134.32
The Nifty advanced 348 points (1.56%) to settle at 22,679.40
Midcap index rose 2.2%
Small-cap index climbed 3.4%
Sector-wise, the rally was broad-based. Defence stocks led the gains with a surge of over 5%, followed by capital goods, media, and PSU banks. Other sectors such as auto, IT, FMCG, metals, and realty also posted steady gains, while pharma was the only sector to close in the red.
The Nifty formed a bearish candle in the previous session, indicating some profit booking at higher levels despite a pullback from oversold conditions. The index failed to sustain early gains and closed near the 22,700 mark.
Looking ahead, volatility is expected to remain elevated due to geopolitical tensions and fluctuations in crude oil prices.
A move above 22,941 could open the path towards 23,200
Failure to cross this level may result in consolidation between 22,300 and 22,950
For a sustained trend reversal, the index needs to consistently form higher highs and higher lows, along with a close above 23,465.
Key support zone: 22,100 – 21,800
(This aligns with long-term trendline support and the 200-week EMA)
Intraday Levels to Watch
Nifty Resistance: 22,730 | 22,850
Nifty Support: 22,320 | 22,150
Bank Nifty Resistance: 51,650 | 51,900
Bank Nifty Support: 50,200 | 49,800
