Nifty Outlook Today By Anand James, Chief Market Strategist, Geojit Financial Services
A mean reversion move higher is expected after Nifty’s plunge below the August low of 23894, took it to the farthest from its 10 day EMA since 22nd Oct. An inside bar in 4hr charts also encourages us to pursue such an upmove. But, with VIX closing strong despite the recovery move in the second half, risk appetite still appears low, prompting us to limit upside expectations to 24176-260 for today. We will however, be encouraged to chase prices higher to 24660-770, should there be a close above 24360. Downside marker may be placed near 23950, below which, the 200 day SMA at 23452 will stand exposed.

Indian Stock Market Outlook Today By Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services
With all attention focused on the outcome of the US presidential election, perhaps the more important domestic economic issue is not getting the importance it deserves. It is important to understand that India’s underperformance is striking: while S&P 500 is up 20.45% YTD Nifty is up by only 10.36% YTD. Clearly, domestic issues are weighing on markets. With two thirds of Nifty 50 companies missing their earnings estimates in Q2, Nifty 50 earnings for FY25 has been drastically revised down to less than 10% from the consensus 15% earlier. With this kind of earnings downgrade it would be difficult to sustain the current valuation. This is the rationale of the relentless FII selling which might continue for some more time.
Investors can opt for the safe strategy of remaining invested and accumulating stocks in segments which can weather the volatility. Apart from leading financials, auto stocks like Eicher Motors and M&M have exhibited earnings momentum and improving prospects, going forward.

Market Outlook By Vinit Sambre, Head – Equities, DSP Mutual Fund
The markets have recently corrected by around 9-10%, with certain sectors like PSUs, engineering, and auto experiencing even sharper declines. The market had been on a strong upward trajectory, fueled by continuous earnings growth, but results for the September quarter have fallen short of expectations, leading to earnings downgrades. This disappointing performance is primarily due to reduced government spending and slow consumption growth.
Notably, urban consumption, which had previously remained resilient, is now also showing signs of slowing—adding to the pressure, especially as lower- to middle-income households have already been under stress. Heavy rains have been partly blamed for the slowdown, making it crucial to monitor the pace of recovery. If growth fails to pick up, it could pose further risks to both earnings and market performance.
Additionally, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) have recently recorded the highest monthly outflows, which domestic investors are currently absorbing. Our base case outlook is that markets may experience some additional weakness in the near term, but we anticipate a potential recovery after the Maharashtra election and with the onset of the festive season in October, which could boost consumption. Populist policies in some states due to upcoming state elections may also provide a lift to spending. The next two quarters will be key in setting the direction for the markets, with added volatility from the U.S. election expected to ease soon.
