Nifty 50 Trading Strategy: Analysts recommend Bear Put Spread options strategy for 24 July expiry

Mint17-07-2025
The Indian stock market traded lower on Thursday, dragged by selling in IT and banking stocks, amid mixed global cues. The benchmark Sensex was marginally down, while the Nifty 50 slipped below the 25,200 level.
Tech Mahindra, IndusInd Bank, Infosys, SBI Life Insurance, ICICI Bank and Larsen & Toubro (L&T) shares were the top losers among the Nifty 50 constituents.
In the previous session, the equity market ended flat with a positive bias. The Sensex rose 63.57 points, or 0.08%, to close at 82,634.48, while the Nifty 50 closed 16.25 points, or 0.06%, higher at 25,212.05.
The highest Nifty Open Interest (OI) on the Call side is at the 25,300 strike, followed by 25,200 which could act as resistance levels. On the Put side, the highest Open Interest is at 25,000, followed by 25,200 which may serve as support levels, according to Axis Securities.
The premium for the At-the-Money option is Rs. 282, indicating a likely trading range for the week between 24,900 and 25,500, it added.
Axis Securities has suggested a Bear Put Spread strategy for Nifty options contracts expiring on 24 July 2025, reflecting a moderately bearish outlook.
A bear put spread involves buying a put option and selling another put option with a lower strike price on the same underlying asset, which is Nifty 50 here, and the same expiration date. This strategy is used when the view is bearish.
Buy Nifty 1 lot 25,200 Put at ₹ 110 - 130
Sell Nifty 1 lot 25,000 Put at ₹ 55 - 65
This strategy involves buying one lot of Nifty Put Option of 25,200 strike and simultaneously selling one lot of Nifty Put Option with a lower strike price of 25,000, Axis Securities said.
According to analysts at Axis Securities, the maximum potential risk for this Nifty options trading strategy is ₹ 4,425, whereas the potential maximum reward is ₹ 10,575.
'Traders may consider deploying this spread strategy to achieve moderate returns while maintaining controlled risk and reward,' said the brokerage firm.

India-U.K. FTA offers mutual growth, says Trade Commissioner

The U.K.-India Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) deal would mutually benefit both nations and promote mobility, innovation, inclusivity, support jobs, boost exports, and strengthen cross-border trade and economic growth, said Harjinder Kang, Trade Commissioner, South Asia, and British Deputy High Commissioner, Western India, at the Bangalore Chamber of Industry and Commerce (BCIC) organised roundtable here on Tuesday. 'The vision also aligns with the U.K.'s modern industrial strategy which will help businesses overcome barriers to investment across sectors,' he commented, while addressing BCIC members. Chandru Iyer, British Deputy High Commissioner, Karnataka and Kerala and Deputy Trade Commissioner, South Asia (Investment), further explained how this strategic partnership could unlock new opportunities for bilateral growth and collaboration. 'Indian-owned companies are already thriving in the U.K., driving jobs in high-growth sectors such as aerospace, technology, and advanced manufacturing. Indian businesses are making the most of the U.K.'s ecosystem and the U.K.-India CETA will boost this further,' he observed. He further said he was confident that the new comprehensive strategic partnership would see closer partnerships in defence, education, climate, technology, and innovation. The technology security initiative (TSI), signed last year, would lead to increased collaboration in areas including telecom security which would unlock investment across emerging technologies, critical minerals, AI, biotech advanced materials and semiconductors, he stated. 'We believe that this agreement will have a significant impact on our economies and will support job creation, technology transfer, and innovation. With its potential to double bilateral trade by 2030, this agreement is expected to have a lasting impact on both economies,' said Prashant Gokhale, president, BCIC.

Possessions possess

Elias Canetti's said, 'To possess is to be possessed.' His idea encapsulates the complex relationship between ownership and its psychological implications. When we acquire possessions, whether material or intangible, there is a reciprocal effect that occurs. On one hand, the act of possessing provides a sense of control and power, as one gains ownership and influence over something or someone. However, simultaneously, this act of possession also possesses us, exerting an undeniable hold on our lives. The more we possess, the more we are consumed by the responsibilities, obligations and even emotional attachments. Hence, Canetti suggests that possession goes beyond the physical aspect, infiltrating our thoughts, emotions and identity, ultimately exerting a powerful influence on our lives. An everyday example further elucidates Canetti's statement. Nowadays, almost all of us possess high-end phones. But, in fact, these expensive gadgets have possessed us as we all have become slaves to them. We're all at sea without them. The great Persian mystic Jalaluddin Rumi says, 'Own nothing, for what you own eventually owns you.' We keep accumulating objects of material comforts only to be consumed by them sooner or later. It's like a snake swallowing and consuming its own tail. Try not to possess more than what's required. When possessions start possessing you and threaten to take your contentment away, it's time to bid farewell to them. (Disclaimer: The opinions expressed in this column are that of the writer.
