Markets Ahead

According to the GDP data that came out yesterday our economy expanded 13.5% in the first quarter. But the numbers were below estimates.

Today, Nifty opened with a huge gap down and bounced back in the initial session. But, as everyone started to square off their positions morning itself,  it started moving down.

The daily candle is a green one on an opening basis, but with a huge wick on the upper side. But the market condition is still good since we are trading well above 17,450. Due to the weekly expiry and the previous day’s fantastic rally, volatility was obvious. I will be watching three levels on the upper side 17,600, 17,725 and 17,780. Supports are expected at 17,450, 340 and zone around 17,200.

One interesting thing to note is that, unlike Nifty, Bank Nifty traded within the opening levels throughout the day. 

Today India reported the August GST collection at Rs 1.43 lakh crores. In July 2022 GST revenue was Rs 1.48 lakh crores.

GST revenues for August 2022 are 28% higher on a YoY basis. Monthly GST revenues are more than Rs 1.4 lakh crore for six months in a row.

Moody's cut India's 2022 GDP growth forecast to 7.7% from 8.8%
