Indian stock market: The frontline indices—the Sensex and the Nifty 50—marginally lower on Tuesday, July 23. The Indian stock market benchmarks dropped nearly 2 per cent during the session in response to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's budget announcement of increases in the Security Transactions Tax (STT), long-term capital gains tax (LTCG), and short-term capital gains tax (STCG).
After the Finance Minister's announcements regarding capital gains taxes, the Sensex dropped 1,278 points, or 1.6%, to the day's low of 79,224.32. Meanwhile, the Nifty 50 tumbled 435 points, or 1.8%, to the day's low of 24,074.20 during Tuesday's session. The Sensex ended at 80,429.04, down 73.04 points, or 0.091%, and the Nifty closed at 24,479.05, down 30.20, or 0.12%.
On the outlook of Nifty today, Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst, LKP Securities, said, "A small-bodied candle has formed on the daily chart following a bearish engulfing pattern, suggesting a pause before the next movement. The Relative Strength Index (14) has entered a bearish crossover and is exiting the overbought zone. The 24,550 level is likely to act as an immediate hurdle for Nifty. A move above 24,550 might induce a meaningful rally in the Nifty, while support is placed at 24,480. A decisive fall below 24,480 might induce selling pressure in the market."
On the outlook of Bank Nifty, De further added, “The index experienced a correction during the day due to weakness in the market. Additionally, the index slipped below the 21-day exponential moving average, indicating a weakening trend. Sentiment might remain weak in the short term or until the index stays below 52,100. On the lower end, it might move towards 51,200–51,000. On the higher end, resistance is placed at 52,100/52,550.”
