Mumbai, September 15, 2025: Today, the benchmark indices witnessed a promising uptrend rally. The Nifty ends 170 points higher, while the Sensex was up by 595 points. Among sectors, almost all the major sectoral indices traded in positive territory, but the Auto index outperformed, rallying over 1.5 percent. Technically, after a muted open, the market surpassed the 25,100/82000 resistance mark, and post-breakout, positive momentum intensified. A long bullish candle on daily charts and an uptrend continuation pattern on intraday charts indicate further upward movement from the current levels.
We are of the view that as long as the market is trading above 25,100/82000 the bullish sentiment is likely to continue. On the higher side, it could move up to 25,400/82800, with further upside potential that may lift the index to 25,500/83100. On the flip side, below 25,100/82000, the sentiment could change. If the market falls below this level, traders may consider exiting their long positions.
The current market texture is bullish, but buying on intraday dips and selling on rallies would be the ideal strategy for day traders.
Gaurav Garg, Research Analyst Lemonn Markets Desk, adds: Indian equities rebounded sharply on Tuesday, with the Sensex rallying nearly 595 points to close at 82,380.69 and the Nifty surging 170 points to end at 25,239.10, its highest intraday level in two months. The rally was driven by strong gains in auto, realty, and financial stocks, as optimism grew around ongoing India-US trade talks and expectations of a US Federal Reserve rate cut later this week. Market sentiment was lifted by the presence of Brendan Lynch, Assistant US Trade Representative for South and Central Asia, in New Delhi for discussions on tariff-related issues, fueling hopes of a breakthrough that could ease trade frictions. Analysts noted that a deal removing punitive tariffs could provide a significant boost to Indian markets.
Global cues also remained supportive, with investors betting on a 25-basis-point cut by the Fed in its policy meeting concluding September 17. Sectorally, the Nifty Realty index led the rally, gaining 1 percent with buying in Prestige Estates, Phoenix Mills, DLF, Anant Raj, and Godrej Properties. Auto, metal, and financial stocks also advanced up to 1 percent, while FMCG shares bucked the trend, slipping 0.3 percent. Broader markets outperformed as the Nifty Smallcap 100 surged 1.9 percent and the Midcap 100 rose 0.6 percent, with notable gainers like GMR Airports, Persistent Systems, Redington, and Godfrey Phillips India posting sharp upmoves.
