Nifty 50, Sensex today: What to expect from Indian stock market in trade on June 17
The trends on Gift Nifty also indicate a weak start for the Indian benchmark index. The Gift Nifty was trading around 24,974 level, a discount of nearly 22 points from the Nifty futures' previous close.
On Monday, the domestic equity market ended sharply higher, with the benchmark Nifty 50 closing above the 24,900 level.
The Sensex surged 677.55 points, or 0.84%, to close at 81,796.15, while the Nifty 50 settled 227.90 points, or 0.92%, higher at 24,946.50.
Here's what to expect from Sensex, Nifty 50 and Bank Nifty today:
Nifty Open Interest (OI) on the call side is concentrated at the 25,000 and 25,200 strike prices, suggesting these levels as key resistance zones. On the put side, significant OI build-up is seen at the 24,900 and 24,800 strike prices, highlighting these as important support levels, said Hardik Matalia, Derivative Analyst at Choice Broking.
Nifty 50 witnessed an excellent follow-through upmove action on June 16 and closed the day higher by 227 points.
'A long bull candle was formed on the daily chart that has surpassed the hurdle of the recent opening downside gap area at 24,825 levels. Nifty 50 is placed again into a broader high low range of 24,500 - 25,100 levels and is currently moving up from the lower range towards the upper range area,' said Nagaraj Shetti, Senior Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities.
He believes the underlying trend of Nifty 50 continues to be positive, and after the formation of short-term bottom reversal at 24,473 levels on Friday, Nifty 50 is expected to move towards the next hurdle of 25,100 - 25,200 levels in the next few sessions. Immediate support is placed at 24,800.
Dr. Praveen Dwarakanath, Vice President of Hedged.in said that Nifty 50 covered the gap between 24,900 and 24,700 in yesterday's rally, forming a bullish candle; however, the index continues to trade in the range of 24,500 and 25,200.
'The options writers' data also suggests a range-bound move in the index for now. Nifty 50 index is bouncing from the support at the 24,500 level towards its resistance at the 25,200 level. The stochastics continued to fall even though the index rallied upside, indicating the upside momentum is limited to its resistance level. The ADX DI+ and the ADX DI- lines are moving crisscrossing each other, indicating no clear trend in the index. One can look to sell the index near its resistance and buy near its support until one of these levels is taken off,' said Dwarakanath.
According to VLA Ambala, Co-Founder of Stock Market Today, Nifty 50 formed a bullish Marubozu candlestick pattern at the daily time frame and concluded above last week's closing price.
'This development offered a boost to the market sentiments. For this week, Monday's lower range of 24,600 to 24,700 will be a key range to watch. As long as the price sentiment remains bullish above this range, bulls will try to protect the range. The Nifty index's RSI was at 55 at the daily time frame, which indicated a moderate buying range for traders and investors. While the broader trend remains bullish, any dips in this range could present buying opportunities,' Ambala said.
Reviewing these aspects, Ambala expects Nifty 50 to gather support between 24,900 and 24,750 and meet resistance near 25,180 and 25,250.
Bank Nifty index gained 417.55 points, or 0.75%, to close at 55,944.90 on Monday, snapping its four consecutive sessions of losses.
'Bank Nifty formed a bull candle with a higher high and higher low and in the process filled its Friday's gap down area and 20 days EMA. In the coming session a move above 56,000 levels will open further upside towards 56,600 and 57,000 levels. Failure to do so will lead to consolidation in the range of 56,000 - 55,000 amid stock specific action,' Bajaj Broking Research said.
On the downside only a breach below 55,000 levels will open downside towards the key support area of 54,500 - 55,000 in the coming sessions, the brokerage firm added.
Om Mehra, Technical Research Analyst, SAMCO Securities noted that the Bank Nifty index formed a bullish candle on the daily chart, rebounding from the recent swing low of 55,149.30.
'Bank Nifty index has reclaimed the 20-day SMA and closed above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level at 55,840, drawn from the recent high to the low. The index is currently hovering just below the 56,100 mark, which coincides with the 50% retracement level, a key resistance zone in the short term. Sustained strength above this zone could open the door toward 56,640, the 78.6% retracement level,' Mehra said.
On the downside, the 20-day EMA and the 23.6% retracement at 55,475 now serve as immediate support levels. The RSI has recovered to 55, from the lower levels. However, the MACD remains in negative territory with a slight narrowing of the histogram, he added.
'Overall, a decisive close above 56,200 would strengthen bullish sentiment, while any dip towards 55,800 – 55,720 could offer a favourable buy-on-dip opportunity,' Mehra said.

Dr. V. Ramesh Babu, Professor and Head, Department of Textile Technology, Kumaraguru College of Technology, Coimbatore Abstract The aim of this paper is to explore the scope of Research and Innovation in Handloom Textiles by studying the History of Handloom, Handloom Industry in India, SWOT of Handloom Industry, Handloom clusters in India, Types of Handlooms and Innovation, Handloom startups, Schemes for handlooms and Boosting the handloom sector in India. History of Handloom Figure 1: History of Handlooms Figure 1 shows India has a 5000-year-old Traditional Handloom background, and even in the Vedic period, there is are lot of evidence of the usage of fabrics. In the 2nd Century BC, the literature shows the production of silk and cotton cultivation and fabrics made from it. The East India Company invaded India in the 17th Century for the purchase of Muslin and Jute fabrics for their socking due to rapid industrialisation in Europe. At present, India has an 80% share in the world handloom, which shows its potential and lots of scope to explore the research and innovations in the field of Handloom. Handloom Industry in India Figure 2: Handloom Industry in India Figure 2 shows the features of the Handloom Industry in India, which has a long traditional background spread across the nation of richness and diversity in nature. A recent statistic shows that around 4.3 million people are involved in the Handloom Industry, and apart from agriculture, the Textile Industry is the largest employment provider. A variety of Designs produced in the various clusters of India with its unique Finesse. Present Handloom Industry focusing on the Fusion of old traditional design and manufacturing skills and talents into New ideas and Technological developments. With the above capabilities, the Indian Handloom Industry has a potential of USD 350 million export business. SWOT of Handloom Industry Strength 1/4 th of the world's cotton cultivation happens in India. Handloom products cannot be produced or replicated by Power looms. Skilled/Semi-Skilled and Trainee workforces are deployed in the Handloom sector. Product diversification through clusters. No demand for energy. The cost of products is affordable. Geographical Identifications/IPR and Copyrights of Designs. Weakness Inadequate and a lack of qualitative raw material sources. Lack of Marketing Strategies Poor quality Lack of Innovation in the processes. Political systems Lack of a Code of ethics and Mode of operations. Lack of Integrated Information Technology systems. Opportunities Domestic and Export Markets Government Polices NABARD Fund Banks for Raw material and Designs. Supporting Body WSC, IIHT, NHDC, Textile committee and HEPC etc., Cluster Development Program Welfare schemes for weavers New Textile policy and Handloom Reservation ACT Threats Migration of workers Imitation of products Import of goods Less handloom cloth consumption per person Impact of Liberalization and Globalization. Poor level of cohesion among clusters Handloom Clusters in India Figure 3 shows the Indian Handloom clusters and almost every state has unique products manufactured with tradition and their own skills and design talents. Few are stated below such as Kancheepuram sarees in Tamil Nadu, Balrampuram sarees in Kerala, Ilkal sarees in Karnataka, Pochampalli sarees in Andhra, Ikat sarees in Odisha, Kosa silks in Chhattisgarh, Tussar silk in Jharkand, Jamdani sarees in West Bengal, Pachra sarees in Tirupura, Puanchei in Mizoram, Phanek in Manipura, Aptani in Arunachal Pradesh, Naga Shawls id Nagaland, Muga Silks in Assam, Bhagalpur silk is Bihar, Banarsi sarees in Uttar Pradesh, Lohi shawls in Uttarakand, Kullu Shawls in Himachal Pradesh, Pashmina Shawls in Jammu and Kashmir, Bedsheets in Haryana, Kota sarees in Rajasthan, Chanderi sarees in Madhya Pradesh and Kutch Shawls in Gujarat. Figure 3: Handloom Clusters Types of Handlooms and Innovation Primitive or Vertical Loom Pit Loom: A) Throw Shuttle B) Fly Shuttle. Frame Loom: A) Throw Shuttle B) Fly Shuttle. Chittaranjan Loom Hattersley Loom Innovative Looms Innovation in Handlooms Extra- Weft Insertion for Handloom Design Conventionally, the task of the insertion of weft threads needed to make a variety of designs is done manually by tying knots, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. The thread is also wasted in connecting one motif to another. Deepak's innovative device makes designs in one-third of the time required by the traditional way of making designs. (Fig.4) The device consists of three components: base frame, magnet bearing shaft and a specially designed bobbin. These components can be fitted to any handloom Jacquard machine. The attachment facilitates the Jacquard loom to perform automatic selection and lifting of warp threads for design making. Figure 4: Extra-Weft Insertion for Handloom Design Bi-Fab Handloom Traditionally, the same big loom is used to produce both narrow and wide fabrics. Sadly, not much has been done for reducing the drudgery and fatigue of the weaver by using appropriate technology in the sector and whatever new has been done in this regard, has not become popular among the weavers due to various reasons. Many a times, the new technology developed for handloom is not user-friendly and hence not accepted by the weaver. (Fig.5) Figure 5. Bi-Fab Hand Loom Bi-Fab Loom simultaneously weaves narrow width fabrics like stoles, napkins, and mats leading to efficient and increased production capacity from the handloom weaver. It helps reduce the laborious nature of work and improve labour productivity by doubling production capacity. The edges achieved are neat with complete selvedges on both sides.
