Short term - Technical Outlook
Bank Nifty is expected to open on a firm note, with the index continuing to build on its recent recovery despite intermittent profit booking. Technically, the 58,300–58,500 zone continues to act as the immediate resistance band. A sustained breakout above this region could strengthen buying momentum and open the door for an advance towards the 58,800–59,000 region.
On the downside, the 57,600–57,500 zone remains the immediate support, followed by the 57,300 level. Holding above these support levels will be important to maintain the prevailing recovery structure, while a decisive break below 57,300 could weaken sentiment and drag the index towards the 57,000 psychological mark. Overall, the near-term technical outlook remains cautiously positive.

Long term - Technical Outlook
Bank Nifty continues to trade with a cautiously positive note. A sustained move above 58,000 will be crucial to maintain the ongoing recovery. Technically, a sustained move above the 58,300 region could strengthen bullish momentum and extend the rally towards the 58,500 zone. However, a break below 57,300 may trigger profit booking and lead to weakness towards the 57,000 support zone.

Long term Chart
August 5th 2026
Indian equity markets opened on a firm note, supported by positive global cues, although gains moderated after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) kept the policy repo rate unchanged and retained its neutral policy stance, broadly in line with market expectations. With no major policy surprises, the Nifty and Bank Nifty traded largely flat following the announcement as investors assessed the central bank's commentary on inflation, liquidity conditions, and the broader growth outlook.
Sectoral performance, however, remained differentiated. Interest rate-sensitive sectors such as real estate and automobiles outperformed in early trade, reflecting optimism over the RBI's balanced policy approach and expectations that borrowing costs could remain supportive if inflation continues to moderate.
In the commodities market, gold prices remained resilient even as optimism grew over a potential agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Reports that Qatar is preparing an interim proposal, alongside constructive signals from both Washington and Tehran, have strengthened expectations of a diplomatic breakthrough, reducing immediate geopolitical risk. Investors are now awaiting the U.S. ADP private payrolls report for fresh clues on the Federal Reserve's policy path. Silver also remained well supported, benefiting from easing geopolitical concerns, expectations of a less restrictive monetary policy outlook, and continued strength in industrial demand against a backdrop of structural supply constraints.
The broader macro backdrop also remained supportive for domestic markets. WTI crude oil continued to trade in the $74–75 per barrel range after retreating sharply from recent highs, easing concerns over India's import bill and inflation outlook. Lower energy prices have also provided support to the Indian rupee, which strengthened to the ?94.90–95.00 range against the U.S. dollar, reinforcing sentiment toward the domestic economy and financial markets.
Technical view
Nifty 50
Nifty 50 opened on a marginally higher note near the 24,669 mark. Early price action indicates selling pressure at higher levels, suggesting that the index may face resistance in extending its recent recovery. Technically, sustaining above the 24,600 mark remains crucial. A sustained move above this level could strengthen momentum further and pave the way for an advance towards the 24,800–25,000 region.
On the downside, the 24,500 level is expected to provide immediate support, followed by the 24,400 zone. A decisive break below 24,600 could result in the index slipping back into a broader range-bound phase, while a break below 24,400 may trigger fresh profit booking. Momentum indicators remain constructive, with the RSI continuing to hold above the neutral zone, reflecting improving underlying strength.
Bank Nifty
Bank Nifty opened marginally lower near the 57,810 mark, witnessing early selling pressure before finding support around the 57,600 zone. From a technical perspective, the 57,600–57,500 zone remains the crucial near-term support area. Holding above this band will be essential to preserve the prevailing recovery structure, while a decisive break below 57,500 could trigger fresh profit booking and drag the index towards the 57,300 support level.
On the upside, the 58,300–58,500 region continues to act as the immediate resistance band. A sustained breakout above this zone would reinforce buying momentum and could pave the way for an advance towards the 58,800–59,000 region. Momentum indicators remain balanced. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) continues to hover in the mid-50s, remaining within the neutral zone and indicating that the index has room for further upside once buying momentum strengthens.
Market support level is 57,600. Market resistance level is 58,300.
