Nifty poised for a cautious optimistic start as all eyes turn towards RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra, who chairs the MPC, and shall announce the outcome at 10 am.

Bulls will hope that the RBI cuts rates by 25 bp bringing down the policy repo rate to 5.25% as inflation is set to remain well below target for the foreseeable future

Please note, India’s GDP grew a strong 8.2% in the September quarter, while CPI inflation eased to a record low of 0.25% in October 2025. This marks the ninth straight month below the RBI’s 4% target and the third month below its 2% lower tolerance band — strengthening calls for the central bank to cut rates further.

Bottom-line: Hopefully, a rate cut from the RBI works as the magical spark that could revive momentum and put the rally back on track.

Defence stocks are likely to remain in the spotlight as Russian President Vladimir Putin begins his first visit to India in four years.

The strategic dialogue is expected to centre around advanced defence cooperation, with particular focus on the S-500 Prometheus missile system, a next-generation upgrade over the S-400 platform currently being inducted.

During discussions with Russian Defence Minister Andrey Belousov, the Indian delegation is expected to emphasize timely delivery of pending military hardware, while also exploring options for future procurement, including the S-500, as widely reported in the media.

Nifty poised for a cautious optimistic start as bulls will aim to take over the positive baton from Nifty’s 3rd-winning winning streak

The positive catalyst: India’s Q2 FY26 GDP surged 8.2%, powered by strong consumption and sectoral momentum.

However, the celebration could be capped on any excessive strength as FIIs continued their selling in Friday’s selling, dumping equities worth Rs 3,659 crore.

The street will also react to November Auto sales numbers.

Nifty set for a positive open driven two-big catalysts:

1) Rising expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut.
2) Strong global cues.

Amid the supportive macro backdrop and strong risk sentiment, Nifty now looks set to wrap up November on a firmly positive footing.

With the index already up 1.9% this month, the tone remains bullish — reinforcing expectations that momentum could carry forward into December unless a major negative catalyst emerges.

Despite the optimism the big question still remains:

When will the FPI come back strongly?

For the day, bullish consolidation is quite likely as all eyes will be on India’s Friday’s GDP Growth Estimates for quarter ended September 30th, 2025

Long story short: The gyan mantra for the day says to be disciplined:

Buy selectively on dips
Avoid chasing strength blindly
Manage leverage with caution — not emotion

Nifty set for a positive open driven two-big catalysts:

1) Rising expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut.
2) Strong global cues.

Meanwhile, IMF data shows that India to reach $5 trillion economy a year later than earlier expected. IMF’s latest projections show weaker dollar-denominated growth pushing India’s $5 trillion milestone to FY29.

Long story short: It’s likely to be a banner day for Nifty, Sensex and Bank Nifty. We believe Nifty should comfortably cross its all-time-high at 26277.35 mark.

A cautious optimistic start on cards for benchmark Nifty after last 2*-days of drubbing.

The big question: Can Nifty recover from last 2-days of sharp sell-off?

Strictly speaking, Nifty may rise, but volatility shall persist.

Volatility could be the hallmark of day’s trading as traders brace for November F&O expiry on Tuesday, November 25th 2025.

Long story short: Nifty badly needs a big positive trigger. Hopefully, optimism surrounding potential US–India trade agreement becomes a reality and lifts Nifty above 26277.35 mark.

Nifty is likely to start the week on the front foot tracking extremely strong and solid leads from Wall Street.

The big question:

Can Nifty recover after Friday’s sharp sell-off?

Technically speaking, Nifty is signalling a massive breakout on the upside — the benchmark should hit its all-time-high (26277.35) sooner than later.

The Gyan Mantra is to stay optimistic as long as Nifty holds above the 25,741-support zone — dips remain buying opportunities in the near term.

Volatility could be the hallmark of day’s trading as traders brace for November F&O expiry on Tuesday, November 25th 2025.

Long story short: Nifty may rise, but volatility shall persist.

Gift Nifty attempts to shrugs-off weak overnight Wall Street cues.

The big question: Will Nifty’s rally fizzle out?

Our call of the day suggests after a cautious start, positive wave shall beckon Dalal Street with immediate goalpost at Nifty’s all-time-high 26277.35 mark.

The 7-positive catalysts on the backdrop:

1) Wall Street stocks improving this Friday.
2) Cooling India’s inflation.
3) Resilient consumer demand
4) Hope of RBI’s rate cut
5) Strong DII inflows continue.
6) FIIs on the buy side in Thursday’s trade and are net buyers this week to the tune of ₹1,578 crore.
7) Optimism surrounding a potential US–India trade agreement.

Bottom-line: Nifty bulls will aim to regroup after a cautious start. We still believe, the benchmark should hit and surpass its all-time high levels sooner rather than later.
