Historical Prediction
Indian Market (NIFTY 50) • Friday, July 24, 2026
Morning Prediction at 11:45 AM
Market Outlook
The Indian market is braced for a weak opening and defensive consolidation, heavily pressured by a steep correction in global tech indices (Nasdaq -2.15%) and persistent FII selling of -₹2999.23 Cr. Although the low India VIX of 13.48 signals an absence of panic, heavy downward momentum in key sectors warrants a highly cautious, defensive positioning focused on capital preservation.
Key Drivers
- Sharp global market correction led by the US Nasdaq dropping over 2%
- Sustained FII outflows totaling -₹2999.23 Cr
- Oversold technical structures in heavyweights, coupled with strong downward ADX trends
- Low India VIX (13.48) indicating structured defensive consolidation rather than panic-selling

Buy
4 PicksStrong support near long-term moving averages. Fundamental valuation looks attractive post-correction.
Defensive IT play with strong balance sheet and robust order pipeline, offering stability during macro volatility.
Valuations are highly reasonable compared to private peers. Strong credit growth projections support accumulation on dips.

Hold
