The Sensex and Nifty50 index swung between gains
and losses through the day and traded in a narrow range on Monday ahead of GDP
data to be announced later in the day and the Reserve Bank of India’s monetary
policy meet on Tuesday. Sensex closed 17 points up at 26145, while Nifty50
index closed 7 points down at 7935. The
market traded in a narrow range amid investors eyeing the upcoming important
macroeconomic data- Q2FY16 GDP later today and RBI’s monetary
policy tomorrow. RBI is likely to hold the rates because they have already cut
the rate by 125 basis points during the year. Now the focus should be the
transmission of 125 basis points, since banks lending rate has reduced only by
an average of 30 basis points in the same time. Market participants are hopeful
of GST bill passage; however concerns over FED meeting followed by ECB policy
meet limited the gains.
It was a range bound day for this index as it
moved within the band of 7985 and 7955 with a swing to 7994 early on. Nifty
Future closed the day with modest gains, inching its way up to the 8000 region
which is a major target and supply zone and must be taken out decisively for
fresh momentum which could then lead it to the 8080-8100 region. The 7960 level
is the immediate support below which it may find buying support in the 7950,
7920, 7900 region. The 7880-7900 range may now be considered a critical support
region and a decisive breach of this zone could lead to panic offloading
pushing it down to retest the earlier supports.
Resistance: 7995, 8035, 8082
