Overview of major indices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Indian equity benchmarks closed almost flat after a volatile session on 13 Nov 2025. Early gains were wiped out by profit\u2011booking as traders awaited key domestic macro data and clarity on global events. The S&P BSE Sensex<\/strong> ended at \u224884,479<\/strong>, up about 12 points (0.01 %)<\/strong>, while the Nifty 50<\/strong> finished near 25,879<\/strong>, up 3 points (0.01 %)<\/strong>. Intraday, the Nifty briefly crossed the 26,000 mark but failed to sustain those levels. The Bank Nifty<\/strong> (approx. 58,275<\/strong>) also ended little changed after spending much of the day in a narrow range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What moved the market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Profit\u2011booking on weekly expiry<\/strong> \u2013 After touching intraday highs above 26,000 on the Nifty, traders booked profits ahead of the weekly derivatives expiry. The market lacked follow\u2011through buying despite positive opening cues.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Caution ahead of macro events<\/strong> \u2013 Investors remained cautious ahead of October inflation data and the outcome of Bihar state election results. The potential India\u2011U.S. trade deal and the U.S. CPI print were also on the radar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Mixed global cues<\/strong> \u2013 U.S. indices closed mixed overnight, with the Dow hitting a record high while the Nasdaq slipped; Asian markets opened subdued. This kept sentiment range\u2011bound.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Institutional flows<\/strong> \u2013 Continued FII selling was offset by strong DII buying, supporting the indices near record highs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Sector rotation<\/strong> \u2013 Investors rotated out of recently strong sectors such as IT, auto and PSU banks into defensives like pharma and realty.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Global cues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • U.S. markets<\/strong> \u2013 Wall Street ended mixed on Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained ~0.7\u00a0% to a new high, while the Nasdaq Composite fell ~0.26\u00a0% amid rotation out of high\u2011valued tech stocks. The S&P\u00a0500 was flat (+0.06\u00a0%).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • U.S. Government shutdown and CPI<\/strong> \u2013 Anticipation of the U.S. government shutdown ending and a key CPI release later in the day kept investors cautious. Expectations of a softer CPI print fuelled hopes for early Fed rate cuts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Asian markets<\/strong> \u2013 Most Asian indices traded mixed. Japanese and Korean markets gained modestly, while Chinese shares slipped as concerns over economic growth persisted.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Commodities & currencies<\/strong> \u2013 Crude oil prices extended their slide as OPEC data signalled supply exceeding demand. Gold held gains after a previous 2\u00a0% jump. The dollar index was little changed and U.S. Treasury yields edged up slightly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Stocks to watch & corporate updates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Quarterly results<\/strong> \u2013 A flurry of earnings kept several stocks in focus. Tata\u00a0Steel<\/strong> reported a 272\u00a0% YoY jump in Q2 FY26 consolidated net profit to \u20b93,102\u00a0crore. Asian\u00a0Paints<\/strong> posted a 47\u00a0% YoY surge in net profit to \u20b91,018\u00a0crore; the stock rallied on the announcement. Ashok\u00a0Leyland<\/strong> reported record Q2 consolidated profit of \u20b9820\u00a0crore (+7\u00a0% YoY). Cochin Shipyard<\/strong>\u2019s profit fell 43\u00a0% YoY to \u20b9107.5\u00a0crore, dragging its shares. Nazara Technologies<\/strong> swung to a \u20b933.9\u00a0crore loss due to a one\u2011time write\u2011down. IRCTC<\/strong> delivered a profit rise of 11\u00a0% YoY to \u20b9342\u00a0crore.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Other announcements<\/strong> \u2013 Mahindra &\u00a0Mahindra<\/strong> said it would form a life\u2011insurance joint venture with Manulife, committing up to \u20b93,600\u00a0crore over 10\u00a0years. Sun Pharma<\/strong> showcased research on obesity treatments at a U.S. conference. Grasim Industries<\/strong> commenced production at its Kharagpur paint plant\u2019s resin block, raising total resin capacity to 92\u00a0MLPA. Indraprastha Gas<\/strong> announced an alliance with Saudi Arabia\u2019s Masah Construction to bid for gas\u2011distribution licences in Saudi industrial cities. Healthcare Global<\/strong> approved fresh investment in its oncology subsidiaries.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Upcoming earnings\/announcements<\/strong> \u2013 Investors should monitor results from companies like Hero\u00a0MotoCorp<\/strong>, Eicher Motors<\/strong>, Voltas<\/strong>, Apollo Tyres<\/strong>, Bharat Dynamics<\/strong>, Page Industries<\/strong>, Muthoot Finance<\/strong>, Endurance Technologies<\/strong> and Ircon International<\/strong>, as well as any updates on the potential India\u2013U.S. trade agreement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Outlook & technical levels for the next trading day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Market tone<\/strong> \u2013 The market\u2019s inability to sustain above the 26,000 level indicates near\u2011term consolidation<\/strong>, especially as traders await the U.S. CPI data and Bihar election results. Sentiment remains cautiously optimistic given strong DII support, but persistent FII selling and rich valuations could cap upside. A buy\u2011on\u2011dips strategy is expected as long as key support levels hold.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Nifty technical levels<\/strong> \u2013 Immediate support lies in the 25,650\u201325,700<\/strong> zone. A breach of this range could trigger further profit\u2011booking toward 25,400<\/strong>. On the upside, 25,950<\/strong> is immediate resistance; a decisive move beyond 25,950\u201326,000<\/strong> could open the door for a test of 26,100<\/strong> and then the record high near 26,250<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Bank\u00a0Nifty levels<\/strong> \u2013 Support is seen at 58,000<\/strong>, with stronger support around 57,500<\/strong>. Resistance is placed at 58,200\u201358,500<\/strong>; a breakout above 58,500<\/strong> could lead to gains toward 59,000\u201359,200<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Trading strategy<\/strong> \u2013 Traders may look to adopt a range\u2011bound approach<\/strong> with long positions on dips near support and profit\u2011booking near resistance. Options data show significant call writing at 25,900\u201326,000<\/strong> strikes and put writing at 25,700<\/strong>, indicating that the index may oscillate within this band until fresh triggers emerge. Volatility is expected around the release of U.S. CPI data and domestic state\u2011election results. Overall, the market tone for the next trading day is neutral to cautiously bullish<\/strong>, with participants watching for cues from global markets, economic data and institutional flows.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
