Stock Market Today: The Indian stock market showed signs of weakness on Thursday, April 24, as the Nifty 50 closed 0.34% lower at 24,246.70. Bank Nifty also declined by 0.3%, finishing at 55,201.40. Realty and FMCG sectors led the fall, while broader markets remained flat to slightly negative.
According to experts, if the Nifty 50 index stays below the 22,300 mark, a short-term correction could take place. In that case, the index may fall towards 21,900. On the higher side, resistance is expected around 24,300 to 24,500. Market analyst Rupak De from LKP Securities pointed out this range as crucial for the next move.
The Indian market has seen a 12% rise over the last 10 trading sessions. Experts suggest this could now lead to a consolidation phase. Investors should keep an eye on global market trends and Q4 earnings from top companies like Reliance, Maruti Suzuki, Hindustan Zinc, and others.
