Nifty ready to scale new highs on bullish mood: Analysts
The market is expected to maintain its bullish momentum this week, having broken out of a consolidation phase. According to technical analysts, the Nifty could gradually move towards its all-time high levels of 26,000–26,200, with initial resistance seen at 25,800. The 25,200 zone is now likely to act as a support base.

Where is Nifty Headed This Week?
The Nifty closed above the previous week's peak, indicating powerful upward momentum. Having broken free from its earlier trading range of 24,400–25,200, the index's recent close above 25,200 suggests potential for further advances. Nifty could soon test its record high of 26,277, and if it surpasses 25,800, we may see fresh buying interest that could drive it toward the 26,000–26,250 range. On the downside, a drop below 25,500 could result in retreating to 25,200–25,000 zone. The consistent rise in both daily and weekly RSI, remaining solidly above key thresholds, further emphasises the prevailing bullish sentiment.
Trading Strategies for the Week
Traders can initiate a moderately bullish strategy with reduced premium outflow and a lower breakeven point called a 'Bull Call Spread' of 3rd July weekly expiry. In this net delta long strategy, traders need to buy one lot of the 25,700 Call strike at Rs 117 and simultaneously sell one lot of the 26,000 Call strike at Rs 29, so that the net outflow or maximum loss will be restricted to up to Rs 6,600. Nifty, on expiry, if it closes above 25,788, the strategy will start making a profit as it's the break-even point for the strategy.
However, as the risk is limited, so is the profit. The maximum gains will be restricted to Rs 15,900, because the gains of a long 25,700 strike Call will be offset by the sold 26,000 strike Call if Nifty closes above 26,000 on expiry. Investors can focus on stocks like Bajaj Auto, Reliance, Hindustan Petroleum, Titan, Eicher Motors, Sun Pharma, Hindalco, and IndusInd Bank for potential opportunities.

Where is Nifty Headed This Week?
ADVERTISEMENT Nifty finally broke out of the consolidation range of 24,400–25,200, which persisted for over a month. The recent rally was driven by heavyweights such as the Banking index, Reliance Industries, and Bharti Airtel, supported by broad market participation. Going ahead, we expect the index to challenge its previous record high levels and advance towards the 26,000–26,200 zone. On the downside, 25,200 now acts as an important intermediate support, followed by 24,800.
Trading Strategies for the Week We remain optimistic on power stocks like Power Grid and Tata Power. The FMCG index also looks good as it has rebounded from crucial support; Hindustan Unilever and Nestlé are among the preferred picks. Realty stocks, after decent moves, are now showing signs of profi t booking. Select stocks like Bharat Forge, Hero MotoCorp, and Torrent Pharma are exhibiting strength on the charts and should be kept on the watchlist for trading

Where is Nifty Headed in the Coming Week?
With the Nifty ending its consolidation phase through a decisive breakout, we now expect a gradual move toward the all-time high of 26,277. However, the gap area around 25,800 could cause a temporary pause. In the event of a pullback, the 24,800–25,200 zone—which previously acted as resistance—is likely to offer strong support.

Trading Strategies for the Week
Participants are advised to maintain a 'buy-on-dips' strategy with an emphasis on selective stock picking.

Based on the current technical setup, the following stocks can be considered for short-term trading opportunities: Apollo Hospitals, Shriram Finance, UNO Minda, Hero MotoCorp, Hindustan Petroleum, ICICI Prudential Life, InterGlobe Aviation, Jubilant FoodWorks, Laurus Labs, UltraTech Cement, and Vedanta

Tiruppur Exporters Association seeks govt support for migrants' housing facility
The Tiruppur Exporters Association (TEA), which is facing a labour shortage, has sought the government's support for setting up housing facilities for migrant workers so that the knitwear export hub can attract these workers. Tiruppur currently can employ over 1 lakh additional workers," said K M Subramanian, president of TEA. With the anticipated surge in orders following the implementation of upcoming Bilateral Trade Agreements (BTAs) and Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), the demand for a larger workforce, particularly migrant workers expected to rise significantly, Subramanian said. "However, the lack of adequate housing facilities for these workers poses a serious challenge. As a labour-intensive sector, it is imperative to address this issue promptly," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Elegant New Scooters For Seniors In 2024: The Prices May Surprise You Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Learn More "We therefore request government support in establishing hostel facilities, with a funding model comprising 75 per cent contribution from the government and 25 per cent from the industry," the TEA president added. Tiruppur alone contributes to about 68 per cent of the Indian knitwear exports. "We completed the FY25, with Rs 45,000 crore exports, which is 25 per cent more than last year," said the TEA president. Live Events Tiruppur exporters have set an annual growth target of 15 per cent and aim to achieve Rs 1 lakh crore exports by 2030. They are expecting that with the signing of the India-UK Free Trade Agreement (FTA), there will be an increase of 10 per cent in orders when the FTA becomes operational by the end of this year.

Govt Reports Fiscal Surplus In May 2025 As RBI Dividend Boosts Revenues, Capex Up 39%
Last Updated: For the two months of April-May 2025, India's fiscal deficit stands at Rs 13,163 crore, or 0.8% of the full-year target, signalling a robust start to the fiscal year. India recorded a sizeable fiscal surplus in May 2025, aided by a record dividend payout from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and strong growth in non-tax revenues, even as capital expenditure continued to surge. It has brought down the April-May fiscal deficit to 0.8% of the full-year target. According to the latest data released by the Controller General of Accounts (CGA) on June 30, the capital expenditure (capex) also rose in May, as spending remained 39 per cent higher than the previous year's number. For the first two months of the financial year 2025-26 (April-May 2025), India's fiscal deficit stood at just Rs 13,163 crore, or 0.8% of the full-year target, signalling a robust start to the fiscal year, the data showed. For the current financial year (2025-26), the government estimates the fiscal deficit at 4.4 per cent of the GDP, or Rs 15.69 lakh crore. The central bank transferred a bumper dividend of Rs 2.69 lakh crore, significantly exceeding the government's budgeted estimate of Rs 2.56 lakh crore from the RBI and public sector financial institutions. This marks a 27% jump from the Rs 2.11 lakh crore dividend transferred in the previous fiscal year, when the government managed to meet a fiscal deficit target of 4.8%. Key Fiscal Numbers for April-May FY26: Aditi Nayar, chief economist at ICRA Ltd, said, 'Following the receipt of the higher-than-budgeted dividend from the RBI, the Government of India (GoI) reported a sizeable fiscal surplus in May 2025, which is sure to be a fleeting phenomenon, as expenditure picks up in the later months. This pulled down the fiscal deficit to just Rs 13,200 crore or 0.8% of the FY2026 BE for the months of April-May 2025." In the first two months of FY2026, tax revenues rose by 10%, while non tax revenues surged by 41.8% on a YoY basis. While revenue expenditure increased by 9.4%, capital expenditure surged by 54% on last year's election-curtailed base, she added. 'Although the GoI's capital expenditure surged by 54% in April-May 2025, this was on a low base, and the extent of the growth was somewhat lower at 32% as compared to the levels seen in April-May 2023. Nevertheless, the capex amounted to a healthy about 20% of the FY2026 BE, and the same can now contract by 1% in the remaining 10 months of FY2026 and still meet the target," Nayar said. Given the buffers on the receipts side, ICRA believes that the GoI could push up capex by Rs 0.8 lakh crore in FY2026 relative to the BE, boosting the headline figure to nearly Rs 12 lakh crore (vs FY2026 BE of Rs 11.2 lakh crore) and take the YoY growth in the same to a healthy 14.2%, she added. Economists estimate that the higher-than-expected dividend windfall could lower the Centre's fiscal deficit by 20-30 basis points from the government's FY26 target of 4.4% of GDP. First Published:
