Shares to buy in short term: Mehta Equities' Riyank suggests Olectra Greentech, Action Construction, GNFC stock to buy
Stock market today: Indian stock market indices experienced a decline in Tuesday's session, weighed down by losses in the financial and IT sectors amidst weakness in regional markets and widespread profit-taking. Despite rebounding for a while, Nifty 50 decreased by 0.26% to 24,934.20, while the Sensex dropped 0.32% to 81,912.58 as of 12:19 IST.
Analysts observed that investors might be retreating after the Nifty 50 closed above 25,000 on Monday, a pattern seen over the past couple of weeks. As experts indicated, investors adopted a cautious stance ahead of the release of industrial and manufacturing production figures for April on Wednesday, along with the first quarter GDP results anticipated later this week.
On the technical front, Riyank Arora of Mehta Equities Ltd advises traders to view any dips as buying opportunities. Here's what he say about the overall market.
Nifty 50 continues to exhibit a strong bullish structure, having rebounded firmly from key support near 24,750–24,800. The index is supported by favorable technical indicators, with the RSI at 61.45, reflecting positive momentum. Additionally, the MACD is on the verge of a positive crossover, indicating a likely continuation of the uptrend. On the upside, a decisive breakout above 25,150 could lead to a fresh rally. Traders should remain bullish above support levels, with any dips viewed as buying opportunities in anticipation of strength resuming.
🔹 Support: 24,800 – 24,750
🔹 Resistance: 25,100 – 25,150
Bank Nifty remains in a consolidation range with strong support at 55,000–55,300 and overhead resistance near 55,900–56,000. The index has held above key moving averages, signaling underlying strength. The RSI stands at 60.4, showing bullish momentum, while the MACD is on the verge of a positive crossover, hinting at a potential breakout. A close above 56,000 could trigger a sustained upward move. Until then, traders may consider accumulating on dips within the support zone, keeping a close watch for confirmation from price and volume action.
🔹 Support: 55,300 – 55,000
🔹 Resistance: 55,900 – 56,000
Action Construction share price is exhibiting strong bullish momentum, trading near recent highs within a rising price channel. The stock is showing continued strength, supported by a high RSI of 68.6, suggesting strong buying interest. With price action consistently making higher highs and higher lows, a breakout above ₹ 1,360 can lead to upside targets of ₹ 1,400 and ₹ 1,420. The technical structure remains favourable, and volume buildup supports the bullish view. Traders may consider entering between ₹ 1,355–1,360 with a stop loss at ₹ 1,335.
Olectra Greentech share price is forming a bullish base above key moving averages and consolidating in the ₹ 1,345–1,350 range. The RSI at 67.3 reflects building momentum, and MACD is nearing a positive crossover, indicating a likely upside breakout. A move above ₹ 1,350 could attract fresh buying interest and drive the stock toward ₹ 1,420 and ₹ 1,450 levels. The recent surge in volume confirms accumulation. Traders may consider buying on minor dips or upon breakout, with a stop loss placed at ₹ 1,275 to manage downside risk.
GNFC share price is showing signs of strength after a base formation near its key support at ₹ 525. The stock has been witnessing positive price action, and with RSI at 67.8, momentum is favoring the bulls. A move above ₹ 546 could confirm a breakout, with the potential to rally toward ₹ 600+. The setup is further validated by improving volume and MACD positioning. Given the strong technical foundation, traders may consider buying at current levels, with a stop loss at ₹ 525 for a favourable risk-reward setup.

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy in New Delhi, to meet PM Modi, EAM
New Delhi, June 7 (UNI) UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy is visiting New Delhi today, to further advance the India-UK relationship during talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, besides other government officials. His visit comes after the two nations agreed on the Free Trade Agreement, which is set to increase trade by more than pounds 25 billion every year. Foreign Secretary Lammy will meet with Prime Minister Modi on his second visit to India to discuss ongoing economic and migration partnership, a statement from the British HC said. The Foreign Secretary will also welcome progress in the migration partnership, including ongoing work on safeguarding citizens and securing borders in both countries. Addressing migration remains a top priority for the government - the Foreign Secretary is focused on working internationally with global partners to secure the UK's borders at home. Foreign Secretary David Lammy said: 'Signing a free trade agreement is just the start of our ambitions - we're building a modern partnership with India for a new global era. We want to go even further to foster an even closer relationship and cooperate when it comes to delivering growth, fostering innovative technology, tackling the climate crisis and delivering our migration priorities, and providing greater security for our people.' The Foreign Secretary will also meet with leading figures in Indian business to discuss how we can unlock even greater investment by Indian business in the UK. Our investment relationship supports over 600,000 jobs across both countries, with over 950 Indian-owned companies in the UK and over 650 UK companies in India. In 2023-24, India was the UK's second largest source of investments in terms of number of projects for the fifth consecutive year. Talks will also take stock of progress, following a commitment by the UK and Indian Prime Ministers to take forward an ambitious UK-India Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. The trade deal is a key example of the progress being made since the last meeting between the Foreign Secretary and his Indian counterpart. It follows the signing of the UK-India Programme of Cultural Cooperation Agreement in May and pounds 400 million of trade and investment wins boosting the British and the Indian economy at the Economic and Financial Dialogue in April. The Foreign Secretary is also expected to address the recent escalation in tensions following the Pahalgam terrorist attack and how the welcomed sustained period of peace can be best supported in the interests of stability in the region. On May 2, the UK and India signed a new UK-India Programme of Cultural Cooperation to boost collaboration across the arts and culture, creative industries, tourism and sport sectors. The agreement will open the door for increased UK creative exports to India and enable more partnerships between UK and Indian museums and cultural institutions, helping to grow UK soft power. At the 13th UK-India Economic and Financial Dialogue (EFD) in April, Chancellor Rachel Reeves welcomed pounds 400 million of trade and investment wins set to boost the British and the Indian economy and deliver economic growth and security for working people. David Lammy travelled to India on his first official visit as Foreign Secretary in July last year, when he announced the landmark UK-India Technology Security Initiative. UNI RN

Nifty 50 closes above 25,000 mark this week: Where is it headed next?
Indian stock market: Indian stocks closed with impressive gains on Friday, driven by the RBI's dual boost—a 50 basis point reduction in the repo rate and a 100 basis point cut in the CRR—which lifted hopes for stronger credit demand and a rebound in domestic economic growth. Markets remained in a consolidation phase for the third straight week but still posted gains of nearly 1%, supported by positive domestic factors. After trading within a narrow range for most of the week, benchmark indices rallied sharply on Friday, ending near their weekly highs. The Nifty 50 and Sensex ended the session on a strong note, both rising by more than 1%. The Nifty 50 advanced 252 points, or 1.02%, to settle at 25,003, while the Sensex climbed 443 points, or 1%, closing at 82,188. 'The stock index has moved up sharply following a bazooka policy move by the RBI. It closed above the 25,000 mark after several sessions, indicating a surge in optimism among market participants. Typically, a rally followed by consolidation often results in an upward breakout, and this time too, we expect Nifty to break out above the recent consolidation range,' said Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities. According to Ajit Mishra – SVP, Research, Religare Broking, the Nifty has once again approached the upper band of its prevailing consolidation range of 24,500–25,100. Mishra further added that a decisive breakout above 25,200 would mark the beginning of a fresh uptrend, with potential to gradually move toward the 25,600–25,800 zone. On the downside, the 24,400–24,600 range is expected to act as a strong support zone during any corrective phase. ' With the RBI's rate cut and dovish commentary acting as strong tailwinds, we maintain our positive outlook on the markets and suggest continuing with a 'buy on dips' strategy unless the Nifty decisively breaks below 24,600. However, investors should remain selective and focus on fundamentally strong stocks in sectors such as banking, auto, and real estate, which are poised to benefit from lower interest rates. Other sectors may contribute on a rotational basis,' Mishra said. Disclaimer: This story is for educational purposes only.

RBI slashes repo rate by 0.5% to boost growth
In a bid to spur growth at a time when inflation has come under control, the Reserve Bank of India's Monetary Policy Committee on Friday (June 6, 2025) voted 5:1 to slash the policy repo rate by a bigger-than-expected 50 basis points to 5.50% with immediate effect. This is the RBI's third repo rate cut since February and will further reduce the interest burden for borrowers but will also cut the interest earned on savings by depositors. Separately, the RBI also decided to reduce the cash reserve ratio (CRR) by 100 basis points (bps) over the course of this year to provide sufficient and durable liquidity to the banking system. This means that the percentage of deposits that banks must keep in reserve with the central bank has been cut, leaving more money available for lending. The cut in CRR would release primary liquidity of about ₹2.5 lakh crore to the banking system by December 2025. Besides providing durable liquidity, it will reduce the cost of funding of the banks, thereby helping in monetary policy transmission to the credit market, RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra said in his statement. The CRR will be reduced to 3% of net demand and time liabilities (NDTL) in a staggered manner, with four cuts of 25 bps each taking effect from the fortnights beginning September 6, October 4, November 1, and November 29. One basis point is equal to 0.01%. 'This decision is in consonance with the objective of achieving the medium-term target for consumer price index (CPI) inflation of 4% within a band of +/- 2%, while supporting growth,' the RBI said in the monetary policy statement. The MPC believed that, despite global uncertainties, Indian economic activity will continue to maintain momentum in the financial year 2025-26, supported by private consumption and traction in fixed capital formation. Taking various factors into account, real GDP growth for 2025-26 has been maintained and projected at 6.5%, with first quarter (Q1) growth of 6.5%, Q2 at 6.7%, Q3 at 6.6%, and Q4 at 6.3%. The MPC also decided to change its policy stance from accommodative to neutral, leaving it free to raise repo rates if inflation trends change. 'After having reduced the policy repo rate by 100 bps in quick succession since February 2025, under the current circumstances, monetary policy is left with very limited space to support growth. Hence, the MPC also decided to change the stance from accommodative to neutral,' the Governor said.
