For the outlook on the Nifty 50 and the Bank Nifty index, Vaishali Parekh said, “Nifty continues to gain strength steadily and gradually reaching the 24800 zone with bias and sentiment maintained strong as mentioned earlier and is anticipated to aim for the target of 25000 zone in the coming days.”

“The broader markets are also gaining strength to support the benchmark index, and further rise is expected, maintaining a bullish trend,” said the stock market expert.
