India post market report October 29,2025
Dalal Street had a busy Wednesday, but the bulls clearly had the upper hand.

The Sensex wrapped around 84,997~ 043%

🌍 Global Setup – Good News from Overseas
Overnight US data showed cooling inflation, which lifted hopes that the Fed may go softer on rates.
Asian markets responded first; Indian indices followed. The India-US trade discussions also added a dose of optimism.
Crude oil stayed calm, which helped ease worries about imported inflation.
In short, global cues gave India the wind it needed to sail comfortably through the mid-week session.
📊 How the Indices Moved
Early weakness in FMCG and IT didn’t last long. Metals, power, and select banks carried the baton forward.
By mid-session, the Nifty held above 26 k and looked solid. Every dip attracted buying, especially from institutions.
Mid-caps and small-caps quietly outperformed — a clear sign of retail enthusiasm staying intact.

📉 India VIX & Currency
The VIX closed at 11.97
Meanwhile, the rupee ended close to ₹88.20 per dollar — a small dip, mostly due to end-month import demand.
Currency traders said the bias stays stable unless crude spikes unexpectedly.
📈 Support & Resistance Zones
For the technically inclined:
Nifty 50
support – around 25,900;
resistance – 26,200.
Bank Nifty
support – 58,000;
resistance – 58,800.
Sensex
support – 84,300;
resistance – 85,300.
If Nifty sustains above 26,200 in the next session, analysts see room for a push toward 26,400.
🏭 Corporate Results Buzz
Earnings continued to drive stock-specific action.
Steel and power companies impressed with better realisations, while select auto firms showed flat volumes.
IT majors like Infosys and Wipro closed marginally in the green after steady quarterly commentary — nothing fancy, but reassuring.
Traders said the takeaway from this results season is clear: financials and infrastructure are leading India’s growth comeback.
💰 Commodities Round-Up
Gold and silver stretched their gains as a softer US dollar improved global buying.
Analysts linked part of that rally to ongoing festival demand at home.
Crude oil hovered near $60.08 a barrel — balanced between Middle East supply jitters and slowing global demand forecasts.
🆕 IPO & Primary Market Corner
The IPO window stayed active. Two mid-cap listings drew strong retail interest and solid oversubscription numbers.
Grey-market buzz remains upbeat; most new issues are commanding positive premiums ahead of debut.
Analysts feel the current liquidity wave is helping smaller companies raise funds smoothly.
⚙️ Derivatives Snapshot
Options data showed heavy open interest around the 26,000 strike, acting as a safety net.
Put-Call Ratio stayed slightly above 1, suggesting bullish positioning.
Traders added long positions in banks and metal futures — a sign that confidence is holding.
📊 Short-Term Game Plan
Near-term trend remains constructive.
As one broker put it, “Unless the Nifty breaks 25,900 decisively, the bulls are still driving.”
Watch 26,200–26,400 on the upside; failure to hold above 26,000 could invite mild profit-booking.
Keep an eye on Bank Nifty — it’s quietly leading the up-move, and a close above 58,700 could extend the rally.
💼 Investment Perspective
Short term:
Focus on quality large-caps in banking, energy and metals. Trim exposure in over-extended mid-caps.
Long term:
Keep SIPs running. India’s earnings cycle looks healthy, government capex remains a solid tailwind, and retail participation is growing fast.
Diversify — a bit of gold or balanced funds will help cushion any volatility in the coming months.
⭐ Stock of the Day (For Learning Only)
Tata Steel — the stock stood out with steady volumes and strong sector cues.
Analysts noted accumulation at lower levels and positive global price trends.
Purely for observation; not a buy call.
🧭 The Big Takeaway
October’s last week ended on a calm yet confident note.
The combination of steady FII inflows, falling volatility, and supportive global cues gave investors reasons to stay optimistic.
Unless a major global shock appears, Indian markets look set to consolidate higher.
To be fair, valuations are no longer cheap — but momentum remains with the bulls. As traders said, “The dips are getting bought faster than they appear.”
