🔍 Index-Wise Breakdown & Analysis
✅ NIFTY 50 – Bulls Take Charge
-
Close: 24,722.75 (+0.64%)
-
Support Level: 24,550
-
Resistance Level: 24,750 – 24,800
Nifty opened flat but picked up momentum in the second half, backed by IT, pharma, and auto sectors. The intraday high of 24,736.25 suggests potential for further upside if global sentiment remains supportive. Tomorrow, if it sustains above 24,750, the next target could be 24,900.
BANK NIFTY – Stable Yet Volatile
-
Close: 55,619.35 (+1.75%)
-
Support: 55,400
-
Resistance: 55,800
Banking stocks finally came out of consolidation mode, led by ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, and PSU banks like SBI. The intraday movement showed good accumulation on dips. Tomorrow, if 55,800 is crossed, short covering may lead to 56,200 levels.
⚖️ FIN NIFTY – Minor Correction
-
Close: 26,476.60 (-0.06%)
-
Support: 26,400
-
Resistance: 26,600
Despite the rally in banking names, the Fin Nifty took a breather, possibly due to profit booking in NBFCs and insurance stocks. A bounce-back from 26,400 levels is expected tomorrow if sentiment stays firm.

Major outperformers today, with stocks like L&T, Siemens, and ABB India registering strong gains on hopes of government spending and robust order book visibility.

📅 Market Outlook for Tomorrow (August 5, 2025)
🚀 Nifty Outlook:
-
If Nifty opens above 24,750 and sustains, we may see a rally towards 24,900 and even 25,000 psychological levels.

Momentum is building, and a breakout above 55,800 can push the index towards 56,200.
-
Watch for movement in PSU Banks, which might outperform.
🧮 Midcap Strategy:

Stock-specific action likely to continue. Avoid chasing high-beta stocks.
-
Look for dips in fundamentally strong midcaps for positional buys.
