Dalal Street extended its losing streak to a fifth straight session as risk appetite stayed muted amid FII outflows and jitters around the proposed US H-1B fee hike. Benchmarks slipped, while breadth in the broader market stayed negative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What Drove Today\u2019s Tape<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Policy overhang on IT:<\/strong> U.S. move to impose a steep H-1B<\/strong> application fee kept the entire IT complex subdued. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • FII outflows persist:<\/strong> Continuous foreign selling kept rallies in check. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Crude cooled but remained elevated vs recent lows:<\/strong> Brent eased after a seven-week peak; energy remained volatile. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Rupee stable near record-weak zone:<\/strong> Managed close as RBI\u2019s presence likely capped volatility. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Stocks to Watch (and Triggers)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Tata Motors:<\/strong> Any updates around JLR cyber incident<\/strong> and plant restart cadence. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Large-cap IT (TCS, Infosys, Wipro):<\/strong> Follow-through on H-1B<\/strong> fee headlines; management commentaries. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Hindustan Copper & metal pack:<\/strong> Track copper<\/strong> prices and supply headlines. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Britannia, Nestl\u00e9:<\/strong> After brokerage upgrades<\/strong>, watch for volume\/price follow-through.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

        Key Technical Levels (Spot)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Nifty 50<\/strong><\/td>24,800<\/strong> (immediate); deeper risk below<\/td>25,000\u201325,050<\/strong> (near-term supply)<\/td><\/tr>

        Tactical take:<\/strong> Momentum has shifted to sellers with Nifty below the 21-DMA and sub-25k on intraday probes; expect sell-on-rise<\/strong> near resistance bands until 25,150\u201325,250 is reclaimed convincingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Tomorrow\u2019s Playbook (Fri, Sep 26)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Tone:<\/strong> Cautious-to-negative<\/strong> unless global risk stabilizes; dips to 24,800\u201324,830 on Nifty may invite short covering, but supply expected near 25,000\u201325,150. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Buy\/Sell Zones:<\/strong>\n
            \n
          • Nifty 50:<\/strong> Buy-on-dips<\/em> only if 24,800\u201324,830<\/strong> holds with tight stops; Sell-on-rise<\/strong> toward 25,050\u201325,150<\/strong>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Bank Nifty:<\/strong> Watch 55,000<\/strong>; sustained breach risks extension to 54,400\u201354,600. Rejection near 55,800\u201356,200<\/strong> is a fade set-up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Sectors to track:<\/strong>\n
              \n
            • FMCG \/ Select Consumption:<\/strong> Relative strength visible; buy on dips. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • IT:<\/strong> Trade light\u2014headline-sensitive. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Metals:<\/strong> Momentum trade if copper stays firm. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              Quick Takeaway<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

              The market is in control of sellers<\/strong> near term, with 24,800<\/strong> on Nifty a line in the sand and 55k<\/strong> critical for Bank Nifty. Respect resistance, be selective on longs (FMCG\/metals strength), and keep risk tight in IT\/auto where news-flow risk is high.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
