Tech View :: 'Nifty to remain in uptrend till 23,000 is held'

The Nifty moved up significantly after a flat closing in the previous trading session. The short-term trend looks very positive as the index closed near an all-time high.

Going forward, the market remains a buy on dips as long as 23,000 is not broken. On the higher end, the index might move towards 23,500-23,600. On the lower end, profit booking might occur only below 23,000.

Comment :: Why did markets rally today?

The anticipation of stability within the coalition government at the Centre, coupled with the RBI's upward revision of its growth forecast for FY25 to 7.2%, fuelled a broad-based rally in the domestic market.

The Indian market surpassed its previous record high set on exit-poll day and reached a fresh peak. Though the last mile towards the inflation target remains sticky, investors are expecting the MPC to be one step closer to the easing cycle.
