The stock market surge comes after the benchmark indices continued their decline on Thursday due to selling pressure in HDFC Bank and weak global cues. Today, Nifty heavyweights such as Reliance, HUL, and Ultratech will be announcing their results, which could have an impact on the index.
According to an ET report quoting Siddhartha Khemka, Head of Retail Research at Motilal Oswal, the market is expected to consolidate within a limited range amid a global uncertain environment.
There is a possibility of a short-term pullback rally, which is expected to be a sell-on-rise opportunity. Important resistance levels to watch are at 21,700-21,800, while lower support levels are placed at 21,200-21,000, as per Nagaraj Shetti of HDFC Securities.
