	The stock has been gradually sailing along the 50-weekly moving average (WMA), since May 2020. The 200-WMA is currently placed at Rs 2,464 level. And as long as this support average is not violated with an aggressive sell-off, the stock is likely to see accumulation on corrective moves, according to the weekly chart set-up. <a href="https://www.business-standard.com/article/markets/mukesh-ambani-readies-succession-plan-ril-stock-may-soar-24-hit-new-high-122062900486_1.html" target="_blank"><strong>READ MORE&nbsp;</strong></a></div>
