🇮🇳Indian Markets Pre Market Report Today – 8 December 2025-RBI rate cut glow meets global caution as India–US trade talks approach

🌍 Global Cues & Gift Nifty – Early Morning Mood

Indian Markets Pre Market Report says Global markets are starting the week on a cautious but not panicked note.

US equities ended last week mixed as traders weighed strong US data against expectations of future Fed rate cuts.

European markets were mildly positive, while early Asian trade this morning is flat to slightly weaker, reflecting year-end profit-booking and tariff worries.

On the derivatives side, Gift Nifty — your key pre-open indicator — is giving a soft hint:

Gift Nifty (8 Dec 2025, ~7:00 AM): around 26,312, down about 10 points (-0.04%) from the previous close of 26,322.

That points to a flat to slightly negative start for Nifty 50, more like consolidation after the RBI-driven rally rather than fear.

🔙 How Markets Closed on Friday (5 December 2025)

Friday was a big macro day for India, and the market liked what it heard.

The RBI cut the repo rate by 25 bps to 5.25%, continued its neutral stance, and announced extra liquidity support via OMOs and USD/INR swaps — calling this a “Goldilocks” phase of strong growth with low inflation.

Equity indices responded positively:

Nifty 50: 26,186.45, up 152.7 pts (+0.59%)

Sensex: 85,712.37, up 447.05 pts (+0.52%)

Nifty Bank: 59,777.20, up 0.82% as financials, NBFCs and rate-sensitive pockets led the rally.

Sectorally, PSU banks, financials and IT were among the strongest gainers, while parts of media, consumption and some industrial names lagged as investors rotated money into clear rate-cut beneficiaries.

Market breadth, however, was mixed — more stocks declined than advanced on the NSE, showing that the move was large-cap and index-driven rather than broad-based.

📌 Indian Markets Pre Market Report -Key Levels of Nifty 50, Bank Nifty & Sensex

📊 Nifty 50 (26,186.45)

Immediate support: 26,000 as the first psychological and technical level, with next support near 25,900.

Immediate resistance: 26,300–26,400 zone; call writers are likely active here after Friday’s spike, making this a near-term ceiling.

🏦 Bank Nifty (59,777.20)

Support: 59,500–59,600 as the first line; deeper support near 59,000 if sentiment turns risk-off.

Resistance: 60,200–60,500; a strong close above 60,500 would confirm a fresh leg in the banking rally post-rate cut.

📈 Sensex (85,712.37)

Support: around 85,500, then 85,000 on any deeper dip.

Resistance: 86,300–86,500; a breakout here can re-ignite talk of new all-time highs.

For intraday traders, these zones help define risk levels and profit-booking areas around the open.

😶 India VIX & Market Sentiment

The India VIX, the market’s volatility barometer, fell sharply last week:

On 5 December 2025, India VIX closed near 10.32, down about 4.6% from the previous close.

This is very low volatility, especially after a central-bank event. It tells you:

The market is comfortable with the RBI’s stance. Options premiums are relatively cheap. But it also means that any negative surprise — global or domestic — can cause a swift spike in volatility.

“Low VIX = calm surface, but any bad news can cause quick, sharp waves.”

💸 FII–DII Flow Check (Cash Market)

Friday’s flows maintained the familiar pattern of foreign selling vs domestic buying.

For 5 December 2025 (cash segment):

FIIs: Net sellers of around ₹-439 Cr.

DIIs: Net buyers of about ₹4,189 Cr, continuing to absorb supply and support the indices.

NSE’s official FII/DII report also shows DIIs firmly in net-buy territory, reinforcing the story that domestic money is still backing Indian equities even when global investors stay cautious.

🇮🇳🇺🇸 India–US Trade Deal – What’s Lined Up This Week

This week, traders will also keep one eye on Delhi’s diplomacy calendar.

India and the US are scheduled to hold three-day talks on the first phase of a bilateral trade agreement from 10–12 December in New Delhi.

External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar has hinted that a trade deal could materialise soon, but stressed India will protect domestic workers, farmers and the middle class.

“Traders will watch New Delhi closely as India–US trade talks kick off mid-week, with potential implications for tariffs, exports and market sentiment.”

📦 IPO Radar – Corona Remedies, Wakefit & Others

The primary market stays busy even as indices consolidate.

Corona Remedies IPO Opens today: 8 December, closes 10 December. Price band: ₹1,008–₹1,062 per share. Issue size: ~₹655 Cr, entirely Offer For Sale (no fresh issue). Focused on branded generics and specialist-doctor prescriptions; analysts see it as a potential long-term story for investors with higher risk appetite.

Wakefit Innovations IPO Also opens this week; focused on mattresses and home solutions, riding the formalisation of the home-furnishing market.

Meesho, Aequs, Vidya Wires Their subscription windows have closed; allotment and listing are lined up this week, with grey-market premiums hinting at healthy listing gains in some names.

“Despite volatility, IPO sentiment is still positive, especially in pharma, consumption and tech-enabled businesses.”

🪙 Commodities & 💱 Currency – Gold, Silver, Crude & Rupee

🪙 Gold & Silver (India – 8 December 2025)

Domestic bullion prices are holding near the upper band after recent volatility:

Gold: about ₹1,30,419 per 10 gram

Silver: roughly ₹1,83,100 per kg

🛢️ Crude Oil

Crude is relatively stable:

Brent is trading at $63.73 per barrel,

WTI in the $60, based on the latest available quotes.

For India, stable oil plus weaker rupee roughly offset each other — good, but not outright bullish for macros.

💱 USD/INR – Rupee Still Near Record Lows

USD/INR futures (29 Dec 2025) are around ₹89.98 per dollar, keeping the rupee near record-weak levels.

RBI has signalled it will allow the market to drive the rupee while stepping in only to manage “undue volatility,” not a specific level.

For equities, a weak rupee:

Helps: IT, pharma, export-oriented sectors Hurts: Oil marketing, aviation, imported-input heavy companies

📊 Derivatives View – OI & Put–Call Hints

Exact intraday options data will move closer to the open, but the recent pattern has been:

Puts building around the 26,000 strike on Nifty, signalling strong demand to defend that level.

Calls active from 26,300 upwards, suggesting this zone as near-term resistance.

Put–Call Ratio (PCR) slipped last week from more elevated levels, showing less aggressive bullishness but not outright fear — consistent with a market that just got a rate cut but is watching global macro risk carefully.

“Options positioning points to support around 26,000 and supply near 26,300–26,400.”

🧭 Trading Playbook – Short-Term View for Today

For today’s session (8 Dec 2025):

Opening bias: Flat to mildly negative as Gift Nifty trades slightly below Friday’s close.

Bull case: If Nifty holds 26,000–26,050 on dips and recovers above 26,250, intraday sentiment can turn positive again, led by banks and large-cap financials.

Bear case: Sustained trade below 26,000 could invite profit-taking towards 25,900, especially if global cues worsen or US futures turn negative.

Sector themes to watch:

Positive bias: Banks, NBFCs, autos, real estate (rate cut benefit); select IT and pharma (rupee tailwind).

Cautious: Mid/small-caps, highly leveraged cyclicals, media and some consumption names where breadth is still weak.

🏗️ Investment Lens – 3–5 Year Perspective

From a long-term investor point of view:

India remains in a favourable macro sweet spot — strong growth, cooling inflation, supportive central bank. Structural themes stay intact: formalisation of the economy, manufacturing, financialisation of savings, digitisation & tech adoption.

Investors with a 3–5 year horizon typically use such event-driven volatility to add quality names gradually, particularly in:

Private banks & top PSU banks Select NBFCs & insurers Autos & ancillaries Pharma & healthcare Export-competitive IT and niche manufacturing

Always remind readers to stagger entries and focus on asset allocation, not just stock picking.
