    Indian Market Outlook

    Opening Cues

    Gift Nifty suggests a negative start for Indian markets.

    Nifty spot is expected to trade in the range of 25,100–25,500 during today’s session.

    Market Recap: Previous Session (January 28)

    Indian equity benchmarks ended the previous session on a strong note, with the Nifty closing decisively above the 25,300 level, highlighting sustained bullish momentum.

    Market sentiment remained upbeat, supported by optimism surrounding the India–EU Free Trade Agreement, which is expected to enhance trade prospects and support medium-term economic growth.

    At the close:

    Sensex rose 487.20 points (0.60%) to 82,344.68

    Nifty gained 167.35 points (0.66%) to settle at 25,342.75

    Sector Performance

    Top gainers: Media, Metal, Energy, Oil & Gas, Realty, and PSU Banks (up 1–4%)

    Underperformers: FMCG, Consumer Durables, and Pharma

    The broader market outperformed, with:

    Midcap index up 1.66%

    Small-cap index up 2.26%

    Nifty Short-Term Outlook

    The Nifty has formed a second consecutive bullish candle, marked by a higher high and higher low, indicating continuation of the rebound from extremely oversold levels.

    Key observations:

    The index has bounced over 350 points from the crucial support zone of 24,800–25,000

    This zone coincides with the lower end of the seven-month rising channel and the 52-week EMA

    Volatility is expected to remain elevated ahead of the Union Budget on February 1, 2026, along with mixed global cues

    If momentum sustains, Nifty could move towards 25,500 in the near term. Overall, ahead of the Budget, the index is likely to consolidate in the 24,900–25,550 range, with stock-specific action dominating.
