06/03/25, Indian benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 are likely to open higher on March 6 tracking cues from GIFT Nifty trading around 22,448.50, a short while ago this morning.

SENSEX

The market rebounded sharply on March 5 after 10 days of losses, with the Nifty 50 rising more than 1 percent, accompanied by above-average volumes, signaling positivity. The rally seems to have raised hopes of bulls gaining strength but needs confirmation by showing a consistent upward trend in the upcoming sessions. Until then, consolidation may be the most likely scenario, according to experts. If the index defends the 5-day EMA (22,290), the immediate target to watch will be 22,500, followed by 22,750. However, 22,050 (the 100-week EMA) is the immediate support, followed by 21,960, which is considered crucial support.

NIFTY 50

Levels For The Nifty50(22,337)

Resistance based on pivot points: 22,392, 22,469, and 22,594
Support based on pivot points: 22,142, 22,065, and 21,940
The Nifty 50 formed a bullish candlestick pattern on the daily charts with a higher high-higher low formation, which is a positive sign. The momentum indicator RSI (Relative Strength Index) reversed from the oversold zone at 33.64 with a positive crossover but remained in the lower band, and the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) stayed below the zero line.

Nifty 50 Call Option data:

According to the weekly options data, the 22,600 strike holds the maximum Call open interest (with 1.14 crore contracts). This level can act as a key resistance for the Nifty in the short term. It was followed by the 22,500 strike (1.1 crore contracts) and the 22,550 strike (94.26 lakh contracts).
Maximum Call writing was observed at the 22,550 strike, which saw an addition of 58.32 lakh contracts, followed by the 22,600 and 22,450 strikes, which added 22.73 lakh and 16.74 lakh contracts, respectively. The maximum Call unwinding was seen at the 22,200 strike, which shed 51.4 lakh contracts, followed by the 22,300 and 22,100 strikes, which shed 31.25 lakh and 31.08 lakh contracts, respectively.

Nifty50 Put Option data:

On the Put side, the maximum Put open interest was seen at the 22,000 strike (with 1.26 crore contracts), which can act as a key support level for the Nifty. It was followed by the 21,500 strike (1.14 crore contracts) and the 22,100 strike (1.01 crore contracts).
The maximum Put writing was placed at the 22,200 strike, which saw an addition of 57.72 lakh contracts, followed by the 22,100 and 22,300 strikes, which added 49.69 lakh and 43.88 lakh contracts, respectively.

Resistance based on Fibonacci retracement: 49,402, 50,375

Support based on Fibonacci retracement: 47,881, 46,078

The NiftyBank also formed a bullish candlestick pattern with a minor upper shadow on the daily charts, signaling the strength of the bulls. However, there is still pressure at higher levels. The index gained 245 points and attempted to fill the down-gap of February 28 (48,627) but failed to close above it. The index climbed above the 5-day EMA for the first time in the last nine consecutive sessions, which is positive but needs to sustain the same for further upward movement.

Maximum Call writing was visible at the 48,500 strike (with the addition of 1.47 lakh contracts), followed by the 48,600 strike (75,900 contracts) and the 50,500 strike (75,000 contracts). The maximum Call unwinding was seen at the 48,200 strike, which shed 30,390 contracts, followed by the 50,000 and 48,300 strikes, which shed 29,280 and 28,170 contracts, respectively.

Nifty Bank Put Options data:

On the Put side, the 48,000 strike holds the maximum Put open interest (with 11.42 lakh contracts), which can act as a key support level for the index. This was followed by the 47,000 strike (10.16 lakh contracts) and the 49,000 strike (7.63 lakh contracts).

The maximum Put writing was observed at the 47,000 strike (which added 2.26 lakh contracts), followed by the 47,500 strike (1.59 lakh contracts) and the 48,700 strike (84,480 contracts). The maximum Put unwinding was seen at the 48,300 strike, which shed 42,480 contracts, followed by the 49,300 and 47,800 strikes which shed 15,360 and 14,700 contracts, respectively

Trade Cycles

The four important features of Trade Cycle are (i) Recovery, (ii) Boom, (iii) Recession, and (iv) Depression!

The trades cycle or business cycle are cyclical fluctuations of an economy. A full trade cycle has got four phases: (i) Recovery, (ii) Boom, (iii) Recession, and (iv) depression. The upward phase of a trade cycle or prosperity is divided into two stages—recovery and boom, and the downward phase of a trade cycle is also divided into two stages—recession and depression.

Phases of Trade Cycle:

The phases of trade cycle are explained with a diagram:

(1) Recovery:

In the early period of recovery, entrepreneurs increase the level of investment which in turn increases employment and income. Employment increases purchasing power and this leads to an increase in demand for consumer goods.

As a result, demand for goods will press upon their supply and it shall, thereby, lead to a rise in prices. The demand for consumer’s goods shall encourage the demand for producer’s goods.

The rise in prices shall depend upon the gestation period of investment. The longer the period of investment, the higher shall be the price rise. The rise of prices shall bring about a change in the distribution of income. Rent, wages, interest do not rise in the same proportion as prices.

Consequently, the margin of profit improves. The wholesale prices rise more than retail prices. The prices of raw materials rise more than the prices of semi-finished goods and the prices of semi-finished goods use more than the prices of finished goods.

(2) Boom:

The rate of investment increases still further. Owing to the spread of a wave of optimism in business, the level of production increases and the boom gathers momentum. More investment is possible only through credit creation. During a period of boom, the economy surpasses the level of full employment and enters a stage of over full employment.

(3) Recession:

The orders for raw materials are reduced on the onset of a recession. The rate of investment in producers’ goods industries and housing construction declines. Liquidity preference rises in society and owing to a contraction of money supply, the prices falls. A wave of pessimism spreads in business and those markets which were sometime before sellers markets become buyer’s markets now.

(4) Depression:

The main feature of a depression is a general fall in economic activity. Production, employment and income decline. The prices fall and the main factor responsible for it is, a fall in the purchasing power.

The distribution of national income changes. As the costs are rigid in nature, the margin of profit declines. Machines are not used to their full capacity in factories, because effective demand is much less. The prices of finished goods fall less than the prices of raw materials.

..BANKING TERMINOLOGY

There are various types of Banks: PSU Banks, Private Banks, Co-operative/Regional Banks, Small Finance Banks and Foreign Banks. When you deposit money in a bank, let's say the bank gives you an interest rate of 4%. But when the bank lends out this money, they lend it out at say, 12%. The difference of 8% in the above scenario is effectively the profit of the bank! The loans that do not pay interest for 90 days are known as Non-performing Assets. Banks have to provide for such bad loans. Structure of a Bank Asset for a Bank: The asset portion of a bank's capital includes cash, government securities, and interest-earning loans (e.g., mortgages, letters of credit, and inter-bank loans). Liabilities for a Bank: The bank's main liabilities are its capital (including cash reserves and, often, subordinated debt) and deposits. The latter may be from domestic or foreign sources (corporations and firms, private individuals, other banks, and even governments). Banks are required to maintain Liquidity with the Reserve Bank of India: SLR (Statutory Liquidity Ratio): It is the money a bank needs to preserve in the form of cash, gold or government Bonds before providing credit customers. This limitation is added by RBI on banks to make funds available to customers on-demand at your earliest convenience. Banks are required to maintain SLR at 18%. CRR (Cash Reserve Ratio): Banks are required to hold a certain proportion of their deposits in the form of cash. Banks don’t hold these as cash with themselves, but deposit such amounts with RBI / currency chests. CRR rate is at 4.5% currently. Repo Rate: The rate at which the RBI lends short-term money to the banks. The RBI through its Monetary Policy committee changes the repo rate to balance growth and Inflation. Reverse Repo rate: The rate at which banks park their short-term excess liquidity with the RBI. Now let us understand various terminologies for Banks Net Interest Income (NII): This is the spread the bank makes on its lending. It is calculated as Interest Income – Interest Expended Net Interest Margin (NIM): This is the spread the bank makes on its lending. It is the earning which is left after deducting the cost paid to depositors from its yields on Loans. This is denoted in % terms. The formula is Yield on Loans – Cost of funds Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR): The capital adequacy ratio (CAR) is a measure of a bank's available capital expressed as a percentage of a bank's risk-weighted credit exposures. Essentially, it is the Capital that is available to lend. Tier I Capital – In simple words this capital is freely available with the bank to lend out. Tier II Capital- This is the capital tied up somewhere and is less freely available to lend. In case of an adverse event, the bank can use this capital to lend. Under Basel III norms, a bank’s tier 1+tier 2 capital must be a minimum of 8% of its risk-weighted holdings. The minimum capital adequacy ratio, also including the capital conservation buffer, is 10.5%. Current Account Saving Account (CASA)- There is no interest paid on the Current Account and a small interest rate is paid on a savings account. The combination of both is called CASA which shows the liabilities of the bank on which it pays relatively less interest. Deposits: Bank deposits are a savings product that customers can use to hold an amount of money at a bank for a specified length of time. In return, the financial institution will pay the customer the relevant amount of interest, based on how much they choose to deposit and for how long. Now let us come to NPA. Gross NPA (GNPA): It is the total loans on which no payment has been paid for 90 days or more. GNPA % is usually shown in each Bank’s quarterly results. The percentage is basically the GNPA amount as a % of the total advances. Slippages: Slippages denote the fresh amount of loans that have turned bad in a year. The slippage ratio of a bank is calculated as Fresh accretion of NPAs during the year /Total standard assets at the beginning of the year multiplied by 100. Provisioning Coverage Ratio (PCR): This is the ratio of provisioning to GNPA and indicates the extent of funds a bank has kept aside to cover loan losses. For Instance, a company has GNPAs of Rs 100 and they have set aside 50 Rs, then the PCR is 50%. Net NPA (NNPA): The total figure left after deducting provisions made for bad loans from GNPA. (GNPA – Provisions+upgrades/writeoffs = NNPA) Special Mention Account (SMA) SMA-0 is a category in which stress with respect to the principal and interest has remained overdue for a period of 0 to 30 days. SMA-1 is a category in which stress with respect to the principal and interest has remained overdue for a period of 30-60 days. SMA-2 is a category in which stress with respect to the principal and interest has remained overdue for a period of 60-90 days
