Stock Market LIVE Update | Sensex drops over 150 points | Nifty tests the 25,900 level
Indian equity benchmarks declined, with the Sensex dropping over 150 points and the Nifty testing the 25,900 level. The RBI noted continued balance sheet expansion among NBFCs in FY25 due to strong loan growth, though stress remained in microfinance. The central bank also began reviewing scale-based regulation for NBFCs. In global markets, Wall Street analysts broadly expect a US stock market rally in 2026. Meanwhile, GE Vernova T&D India shares rose sharply in 2025, supported by a strong order pipeline and elevated valuations.

India Market Outlook
Market in the Previous Session:
Indian benchmark indices came under steady selling pressure on 29 December, ahead of the monthly derivatives expiry.
Ongoing selling by foreign institutional investors and a weaker rupee weighed on market sentiment.
Traders also remained cautious ahead of the Nifty index rebalancing scheduled for 30 December, which led to higher intraday volatility and added pressure on markets.
At close, the Sensex declined 346 points, or 0.41%, to close at 84,695, while the Nifty slipped 100 points, or 0.38%, to end at 25,942.
On the sectoral front, Nifty Media, FMCG, and PSU Banks offered limited support. However, most sectors faced selling pressure, with Consumer Durables, IT, Healthcare, and Realty stocks ending as the top laggards.
The broader market also remained weak, with the Nifty Midcap index falling 0.52% and the Nifty Small-cap index dropping 0.72%, pointing to widespread selling across the market.
TRADE SETUP FOR DEC 30
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
The index formed a large bearish candlestick, marked by a lower high and a lower low, indicating continuation of profit booking after the recent up-move, especially ahead of the F&O monthly expiry.
As anticipated, the index is currently consolidating within a range, driven largely by stock-specific activity.
Over the coming week, the index is likely to extend the consolidation seen over the past four weeks, broadly within the 25,700–26,300 zone.
A decisive breakout or breakdown from this range will set the tone for the next directional move.
A sustained move above 26,300 could trigger further upside, with potential targets around 26,500 in the coming weeks. On the hourly chart, the RSI has moved to oversold territory, suggesting the possibility of a short-term pullback from key support levels.
Immediate support is placed in the 25,700–25,800 range, which coincides with the current month’s lows, the 50-day EMA, and a key retracement level of the prior up-move. Holding above this support band would keep the near-term outlook neutral to mildly positive.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 26,040, followed by 26,120 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 25,900, followed by 25,820.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 59,200, followed by 59,350, while downside support is found at 58,800, followed by 58,720.
Derivative Market Analysis
Nifty:
The option chain highlights a clear call-side dominance, with the highest Call OI positioned at 26,100, followed by 26,000, forming a strong overhead resistance zone.
On the put side, participation remains limited, indicating a relatively weak support structure at current levels. A decisive breach below 25,900 could accelerate corrective pressure towards the 25,800 zone.
Overall, the option data suggests 25,900–26,100 as a critical range for the monthly expiry. A breakout on either side of this band is likely to trigger a directional move.
The Max Pain level stands at 26,000, indicating a potential expiry magnet around this strike unless a strong breakout emerges.
Bank Nifty:
The Bank Nifty option chain shows significant accumulation of both Call and Put OI at the 59,000 strike, indicating a straddle formation and marking it as a key pivot level for the expiry.
However, Call writers remain dominant, with call positions significantly outweighing put writing, reinforcing 59,000 as a strong resistance zone. Meaningful short covering on the call side is expected only on a sustained move above this level.
On the downside, a sustained move below 59,000 could invite renewed selling pressure, dragging Bank Nifty towards the 58,500 zone.
The Max Pain level is also placed at 59,000, further highlighting its importance as a decisive level for the monthly expiry.
US Share Market News
Performance Overview:
Wall Street’s major indices closed lower on Monday, starting the final week of the year on a subdued note as heavyweight technology stocks pulled back after last week’s rally that had lifted the S&P 500 to record levels.
Sector-specific indicator:
The S&P 500 slipped 24.20 points, or 0.35%, to close at 6,905.74, while the Nasdaq Composite declined 118.75 points, or 0.50%, to 23,474.35. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 249.04 points, or 0.51%, ending at 48,461.93.
All three indices were set to post solid monthly gains, with the Dow and the S&P 500 on track for their eighth straight month of advances.
Economic indicator:
On the macro side, investors will focus on minutes from the Fed’s last meeting and the weekly jobless claims data in what is otherwise a light data week.
