- Indian Markets Pre-Market Report – Thursday, 11 December 2025–Your Morning Edge in the Indian Markets.
The markets are walking into Thursday with that familiar mix of caution and curiosity. Overnight cues didn’t give anyone a strong reason to cheer, and whatever signals came from global markets were more like whispers than shouts. Traders will likely begin the day looking over their shoulders at the US Federal Reserve meeting outcome, the India–US trade discussions, and the currency movement. Let’s walk through everything that actually matters before the bell rings.
🇮🇳Indian Markets Pre -Market Report–Market Overview
Wednesday’s session left the market slightly bruised but not broken. The indices slipped again, stretching the losing streak, though not in a dramatic fashion. It was one of those sessions where the market simply didn’t have the strength to rally and didn’t have enough fear to collapse either. With global cues looking shaky and domestic flows moving sluggishly, the sentiment heading into today is best described as “careful optimism with an umbrella in hand.”
🌏 Global Cues & GIFT Nifty Today Morning Updates
Last night in the US, markets shuffled sideways.
The Fed cut its benchmark policy rate by 25 basis points, bringing the target range to 3.50%–3.75%. This is the third rate cut this year. The decision was divisive — out of 12 voting members on the rate-setting committee (Federal Open Market Committee / FOMC), three dissented: two wanted to hold rates, one wanted a larger cut. Alongside the rate change, the Fed released its economic projections for 2026 — showing a soft outlook for growth and inflation, and signalling only one more potential rate cut next year, depending on incoming data.
Nothing big came out, and investors preferred to stay quiet until the Fed’s tone becomes clearer.
Europe wasn’t any braver. The Stoxx 600 ended slightly lower as bond yields stayed uncomfortable.
Asian markets this morning are tiptoeing — some green here, some red there, but mostly flat. Japan opened steady, Hong Kong looks cautious, and China continues to move softly as global demand concerns overshadow any local optimism.
GIFT Nifty, which usually gives a decent early hint, was last seen around 25,975, just a handful of points higher. Not exactly a sign of strength, but not weakness either. More like, “Let’s wait and see what everyone else does first.”
So the tone for the morning is plain: a flat start, possibly a shade positive if global handshakes go well.
📉 Brief Recap of Last Session – What We Learned Yesterday
The previous session told a simple story. Weak rupee, steady FII selling, and lack of domestic triggers kept the indices from recovering. Nifty slipped back into its lower range, closing under the 25,800 level, while Bank Nifty once again failed to hold above 59,000.
Midcaps and smallcaps didn’t help either — they continued to underperform, which is usually a sign that broader market traders are trying to protect capital rather than chase returns.
Put together, yesterday was a reminder that markets are still sensitive to global central bank cues and foreign fund flow patterns.

🔑Latest Key Levels – Nifty 50, Bank Nifty and Sensex
These levels matter because traders often watch them throughout the day.
🟢 Nifty 50 Levels
Support: First key zone: 25,700–25,600 Stronger cushion: 25,450–25,400
Resistance: Immediate barrier: 25,950–26,000 Strong hurdle: 26,150–26,200
If Nifty breaks above 26,000 with volume, it may finally escape the tight range. If it breaks below 25,600, expect some intraday nerves.
🟣 Bank Nifty Levels
Support: 58,700 → 58,500
Resistance: 59,500 → 59,800
The 60,000 mark remains the big psychological wall.
🟠 Sensex Levels
Support: 84,200 → 84,000
Resistance: 85,100 → 85,500
Sensex moves slower than Nifty but often confirms broader trend shifts.
From a technical-chart angle, price action over the last few sessions has created a narrow band for the benchmarks. Markets are waiting for clarity from global cues before creating a fresh trend. If Nifty and Bank Nifty hold their lower zones today, a bounce may follow. If they break those support pockets, the market may slide into deeper consolidation.
This is a classic setup before a major global announcement — choppy, cautious, and swimming sideways.
📊 Open Interest Trends & Put Call Ratio (PCR) Analysis
Open Interest (OI) has been climbing steadily across Nifty weekly contracts. This usually signals that traders are building positions ahead of a catalyst (in this case the Fed meeting).
Recent trend shows:
Call writers active from 25,900 to 26,000
Put writers protecting 25,600–25,500
The Put–Call Ratio is hovering near 0.7–0.8. Whenever PCR dips below 1 for a few sessions, markets tend to show a sideways-to-weak bias — unless there’s a positive shock that forces short-covering.
With VIX still low, option premiums remain cheap, which makes the market vulnerable to sudden spikes once something big hits the wires.
📊 India VIX Stands – Volatility View
India VIX continues to sit in the 10–11 range. Too calm for the kind of global uncertainties we have right now. Markets often behave suspiciously quiet just before they make a sharp directional move.
So, if VIX starts rising above 13 or 14 today, expect sudden volatility in index moves.
🇮🇳 India vs US Trade Deal – Why the Market Cares Today
Negotiations between India and the US continue to make headlines. Issues like tariff adjustments, agricultural exports, and technology partnerships remain on the negotiation table.
Any positive statement today may lift sentiment in:
export-oriented stocks, IT services, agribusiness, and manufacturing names.
A negative or delayed update, however, may keep the market cautious.
In short — this story isn’t over yet, and traders are watching closely.
🚀 IPO Updates – New & Existing Issues
The IPO window stays interesting even as secondary markets freeze up.
Recent big listings like Meesho have kept sentiment active. A few SME IPOs continue to attract attention. Subscription levels show investors still have appetite for good businesses even if indices remain dull.
Check today’s exchange notifications for fresh filings — December usually sees a few surprise offerings.
💸 FII and DII Data – Flow OutlookFII & DII Data – 10 December 2025
On 10 Dec 2025, in the cash segment:
Foreign Institutional Investors (FII) were net sellers worth ₹ 1,651.06 crore.
Domestic Institutional Investors (DII) were net buyers of about ₹ 3,752.31 crore.
Foreign Institutional Investors (FII) have been net sellers most days this week. Weak rupee, global uncertainty, and rising US yields have kept FIIs in risk-reduction mode.
Domestic Institutional Investors (DII), on the other hand, continue to absorb the selling pressure. DIIs have been net buyers, helping the market maintain some stability.
This tug-of-war is likely to continue today as well.
🪙 Commodity Market – Gold, Silver & Crude Oil Latest Updates
🪙 Gold
Gold ₹1,29,629 stays elevated as global investors wait for the Fed’s direction. If the Fed sounds dovish, gold may spike further.
🥈Silver
Silver ₹1,88,574 has been the stronger performer of the two metals, supported by industrial demand and global price momentum.
🛢 Crude Oil
Brent Crude around $62.43per barrel.
Crude is still hovering around the low-60s per barrel. Fragile demand and shifting geopolitical tensions continue to play tug-of-war. A spike in crude could quickly feed into India’s inflation expectations — which markets don’t like one bit.
💱 Currency Today Morning Update – USD/INR
The rupee remains volatile. The USD/INR pair fluctuates around the ₹90 mark, which has become a stubborn resistance zone. Any additional strengthening of the dollar could push the rupee into deeper weakness.
For sectors like aviation, oil marketing, and import-heavy manufacturing, the currency remains a critical factor today.
🎯 Investment View – Short Term and Long Term
📌 Short-Term View (1–3days)
Expect range-bound movement unless:
the Fed gives a surprise comment, rupee moves sharply, or the India–US trade statements shift tone.
Traders should stick to tight stop-losses and avoid over-leveraged positions.
🧭 Long-Term View (6–24 months)
The long-term story remains unchanged:
Strong GDP growth Rising consumption Stable inflation outlook Constructive reform environment Increasing domestic participation
For long-term investors, dips continue to be healthy opportunities to gradually accumulate high-quality large caps.
🏛📜 SEBI Updates and Their Market Impact
Over the past month, SEBI has rolled out a series of changes, most notably in:
open interest calculation for derivatives, stricter oversight on investor education content, finfluencer regulations.
These rules aim to improve transparency, reduce misinformation, and create a safer trading environment. Traders need to stay updated because these changes directly affect how positions are monitored, especially during volatile sessions.
