Depending on whether the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led NDA surpasses or falls short of the expectations outlined by exit polls, the Nifty could experience significant swings in either direction once the trends of the Lok Sabha election results become apparent on Tuesday. The substantial rally of over 3% on Monday, coupled with a 15% decline in the India VIX fear gauge, indicates that market anticipation for a negative surprise has diminished.
Lok Sabha Election Results 2024: Experts anticipate high volatility on election result day. Nifty could see further gains if results match exit polls, but selling pressure if below expectations.
Nifty Auto and Nifty Metal have shown strong performance in 2024 YTD, outperforming the benchmark. Experts favor auto over metals for long-term investment due to growth potential, innovation, and less impact from global factors.
The consolidation is expected to continue in the coming days, with resistance on the higher side at 23,000 on the Nifty 50, followed by 23,100, and support at 22,800 and then 22,600 levels, experts said.
