Dealer's Diary
Nifty declined nearly 1% (83 points) to close at 9748 and Sensex slipped
266 points to close at 31259. Nifty declined over 1.5% in the last two
consecutive days. Resignation of Infosys' CEO and weak global cues
have a negative sentiment in the market. Infosys market cap declined
nearly $6bn in the last two trading sessions after the resignation of
Infosys' CEO owing to 'continuous stream of distractions in recent
quarters' is a big dent to the company's investment attractiveness.
Global markets like Europan and US Future dropped amid growing
unease about persistent low inflation and geo-political tension.
However, the dollar, gold and yen all gained. Nifty 500 stocks advance
decline ratioat 1:4 implies that all round selling is in the market like
Banking, Auto, Pharma, Realty, Metal, Tech etc. Infosys declined 5% to
close 3-year low at Rs873. It has declined over 12% in the two
consecutive days. Company announced share buy-back at Rs1150 a share
of 4.92% of equity worth Rs130bn. Manappuram Finance climbed up
over 10% to close at Rs95. Rating agency CARE has upgraded the long-
term credit rating of Manappuram Finance to CARE AA (stable) from
CARE AA- (stable).

Technical Outlook
Nifty index failed to hold above its crucial hurdle of 9880 and corrected
sharply after breaking its immediate support of 9775 mark. During the
day it fell down towards 9740 and finally closed the session with the
loss of around 83 points. It formed a bearish candle on the daily chart
and closed below to its 50 DEMA which has a negative implication if
follow up selling continues. It is just few points away from the major
support trend line by connecting the lows of 9088, 9448, 9685 and 9720.
If this trend line is broken decisively then short term trend may continue
its pace of selling pressure towards 9600 zones while on the upside
resistances are shifting lower to 9820 and 9850 marks.
Nifty Futures
9764.20

Premium
9.85
Nifty Future closed negative with the loss of 0.90% at 9765. On the option
front, maximum Put OI is intact at 9800 followed by 9500 strike while maximum
Call OI is at 10000 followed by 10100 strike. We have seen significant Call
writing at 9900 strike which is going to emerge as a big hurdle from its earlier
supply zone of 10000 and 10100 levels. Put unwinding was seen at 9800 and
9900 strike which is also giving the scope for further declines. India VIX moved
up by 1.68% at 14.81 and volatility has been slowly rising from last three
sessions. Built up of long position were seen in M&M, Axis Bank, Ambujacem,
Techm, etc. while shorts were seen in Amar Raja Battery, Cadila, Oil India,
CEAT Ltd, Infy, PNB, Glenmark, Orient Bank, Can Bank, ZEEL, Hexaware, Amar
Raja Battery, BHEL, ONGC, Cipla, etc.
