India Market Outlook
Market in Previous Session:
Benchmark indices ended marginally higher on June 11, as profit-taking at elevated levels curtailed intraday gains. The Nifty opened on a firm note and extended its upward momentum to hit an intraday high of 25,222 during the mid-session. However, selling pressure at higher levels pared the index's advance, and it eventually settled with modest gains. Following the recent uptrend, the market appears to be in a consolidation phase, lacking a decisive directional bias as investors remain on the sidelines, awaiting key macroeconomic cues and fresh developments on trade negotiations.
Sensex was up 123 points or 0.15% at 82,515.14, and the Nifty was up 37 points or 0.15% at 25,141.40.
Sectoral performance on the NSE was mixed. The Oil & Gas pack led the charge, surging 1.47%, followed by IT and Pharma, which posted gains of 1.26% and 0.5%, respectively. Energy and infrastructure counters also witnessed buying interest. Conversely, FMCG emerged as the top laggard, declining 0.67%, while PSU banks and private lenders lost 0.88% and 0.26%, respectively.
The broader markets underperformed, with the Nifty Midcap and Smallcap indices correcting 0.49% and 0.58%, respectively, after a sustained rally in the last few sessions. Meanwhile, a 2% decline in India VIX to 13.7 indicated a cooling in market volatility expectations.
TRADE SETUP FOR JUN 12
Nifty Short-Term Outlook:
Index consolidated in a range amid positive bias and closed with marginal gains. It has formed a doji candle with a higher high and higher low signaling consolidation with positive bias.
Index is seen sustaining above the upper band of the last three weeks' broad consolidation range 24,400-25,100. We believe the structure remains positive and the index to head higher towards an immediate hurdle of 25,300 and then towards 25,500 in the coming weeks.
Dips in the coming sessions should be used as a buying opportunity with immediate short-term support placed at 24,900-25,000 levels, being the recent breakout area. While 24,600-24,700 remains a key support area being the confluence of Friday’s low and 20 days EMA.
Intraday Levels:
Nifty: Intraday resistance is at 25,220, followed by 25,300 levels. Conversely, downside support is located at 25,040, followed by 24,950.
Bank Nifty: Intraday resistance is positioned at 56,730, followed by 57,050, while downside support is found at 56,180, followed by 55,900.
Derivative Market Analysis
Nifty:
The highest call open interest is currently at 26,000, while the highest put OI is placed at 24,500, establishing the broader range for the index.
FIIs showed a constructive stance by adding 3,531 fresh longs and covering 2,944 short contracts, which improved the long-short ratio from 0.25 to 0.28. This shift suggests growing confidence among institutional participants.
On the options front, put writers were active below the 25,200 mark, whereas call writers dominated above 25,250.
Notably, call unwinding was observed at the 25,000 and 25,100 strikes, indicating a bullish undercurrent and a reduced supply of overhead resistance.
As per the monthly expiry setup, a straddle formation at the 25,000 strike marks it as a key pivot level going forward. The put-call ratio has risen to 0.97, reinforcing the base-building narrative. A sustained move above 25,200 could pave the way for a gradual climb toward the 25,400–25,600 zone.
Bank Nifty:
Bank Nifty continues to show consolidation tendencies with the highest call and put OI both concentrated at the 56,000 strike—making it a critical equilibrium level.
In the previous session, call writers were aggressive above 56,500 while put writers added positions at 56,000, highlighting strong support at that level.
A break below 56,000, however, could shift the tone to slightly cautious in the near term.
The broader trading band remains between 56,500 and 57,000 for now.
The put-call ratio stands at 0.98, suggesting a neutral-to-positive bias as long as 56,000 holds on a closing basis.
