Indian benchmark indices ended lower on September 22nd , with the Nifty holding marginally above the 25,200 mark. IT stocks slumped on news of President Trump’s $100,000 H-1B visa fee but pared losses after a subsequent clarification, while the GST rollout and sustained buying in Adani Group counters aided an intraday pullback.
At the close, the Sensex fell 466.26 points or 0.56% to 82,159.97, and the Nifty slipped 124.70 points or 0.49% to 25,202.35.

Sector-wise, IT led the decline with a 2.95 % drop, followed by a 1.4 % fall in pharma whereas Energy index gained by 0.69 % followed by Metals & media gaining by little over 0.4% respectively.
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index formed a high wave candle with a lower high and lower low. The price action underscores profit-booking pressure for second session in a row at an elevated levels following a sharp 1,000-point rally over the past three weeks, which has propelled the daily stochastic oscillator into overbought territory.
Index on expected lines is witnessing a retracement of its preceding up move. We expect the Nifty to extend the last 2 sessions' consolidation and trade in the range of 25,500–25,000 zones.
The immediate support base is seen at 25,100–24,900, which coincides with the confluence of the 20- and 50-day exponential moving averages (EMA).
We maintain an overall positive bias and believe the ongoing corrective pullback presents a tactical buying opportunity within the broader uptrend. On the upside, the index faces immediate resistance at the 25,500–25,600 zone.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 25,310, followed by 25,400 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 25,130, followed by 25,050.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 55,530, followed by 55,750, while downside support is found at 55,050, followed by 54,800.
Nifty:
For the weekly expiry, the highest call OI is positioned at 25,500, followed by 25,300, while the highest put OI stands at 25,200.
In the previous session, FIIs created fresh longs by 574 contracts while covering 1,945 shorts, keeping the long/short ratio unchanged at 0.15.
On the options front, call writers were active above 25,200, with the highest addition at 25,300. On the put side, the strongest OI build-up was also at 25,200, but unwinding was seen above 25,300. Notably, today’s action showed mild addition of ITM calls in the monthly expiry—a potential early warning sign for bulls.
From a levels perspective, if Nifty sustains above 25,300, it can move towards 25,500. On the downside, 25,200 is a crucial support; a breakdown here could accelerate correction towards 25,000.
The Put-Call Ratio (PCR) now stands at 0.72, indicating a cautious undertone.
Bank Nifty:
The highest call OI is positioned at 56,000, while the strongest put writing is concentrated at 55,000, followed by 54,000.
In the last session, call writers dominated above 55,300, while put unwinding across strikes below 56,000 signaled fading confidence from bulls.
On the upside, sustained trade above 55,500 can open the path towards 56,000, whereas 55,000 remains a key support. A decisive break below this level may trigger further downside towards 54,500.
The PCR currently stands at 0.97, suggesting a balanced but slightly defensive positioning.
Performance Overview:
Wall Street extended last week’s rally with a third straight record close, powered by megacaps Nvidia and Apple after Nvidia unveiled a $100 billion investment plan and analysts flagged robust demand for Apple’s new iPhone.
