Dear
Trader…
Markets traded volatile and ended almost unchanged, taking a
breather after the recent surge. The beginning was upbeat however profit taking
in select heavyweights pulled the index lower as the day progressed. Meanwhile,
a mixed trend on the sectoral front kept the traders occupied wherein metal and
realty posted decent gains while energy and FMCG witnessed profit taking. The
broader indices were also aligned to the move and ended on a flat note.
We reiterate our positive view on the index and suggest
focusing on select themes/sectors that are attracting noticeable interest.
Apart from the global cues, the performance of the IT majors will be in focus
for cues.

Meanwhile, Rating
agency ICRA in its latest report has said that revenue of Indian road logistics
industry will remain range-bound and grow at a slower pace of 3-6 per cent in
the current financial year (FY25). It said operating profit margins are
expected to remain range-bound at 10.5-12.5 per cent in FY25 as concerns on
cost inflation persist.
ICRA expects
softening in the government capex during the elections (given the Model Code of
Conduct requirements) and moderation in consumer demand sentiments amid high
inflation and interest rates. It said the outlook for the sector
continues to be stable, fuelled by sustained momentum in economic activities,
enhanced traction of organised trade and continued support from varied segments
like e-commerce, FMCG, retail, pharmaceuticals, and industrial goods.

resistances seen at 22808 – 22880 levels. Immediate support is placed at 22606
