At 7.21 a.m. on Friday, Gift Nifty, formerly SGX Nifty, was trading at 19,301.5, up 8.5 points or 0.04%. The index began trading at 19,293 and ranged from an intraday high of 19,331 to a low of 19,290.5, suggesting that the Indian market may begin on a favourable note. However, investors' reactions to the RBI's minutes of the latest policy, in which the central bank signalled that future rate rises may be possible owing to an upsurge of inflationary concerns, would likely cause the market to stay cautious on Friday. The NSE index fell more than 1% or 200 points to finish at 19,386.70 on Thursday after reaching an intraday high of 19,584.45 and Sensex dropped 180 points to close at 65,252.34.
Nifty Outlook
Commenting on the outlook of Nifty today, Jatin Gedia - Technical Research Analyst at Sharekhan by BNP Paribas said, "The Nifty opened gap up however as the day progressed it witnessed selling pressure and closed in the negative down around ~57 points. On the daily charts, we can observe that the pullback rally has fizzled out around the resistance zone of 19500 - 19550 where multiple resistance in the form of the 20-day moving average and the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level (19538) of the fall from 19992 - 19253 was placed. The daily and hourly momentum indicator has a negative crossover and thus the pullbacks are likely to be sold into. Overall, we shall continue to maintain our negative outlook on the index for a target of 19100. Crucial support is placed at 19280 - 19250 while immediate hurdle is placed at 19500 - 19530."

Bank Nifty Outlook
"Bank Nifty has witnessed a sharp fall after a gap up opening. The pullback rally has fizzled out around the 44900 - 45000 zone which coincided with the 50% fibonacci retracement level and the previous swing high. The daily and hourly momentum indicators are providing divergent signals and hence a consolidation is likely in the short term. The range of consolidation is likely to be 44000 - 45000, said Jatin Gedia.
