Stock market today: The Indian stock market started positively on Tuesday, although investors remained cautious as discussions on the India-US trade deal continue to advance.
The Nifty 50 index opened at 25,277.55, an increase of 50.20 points or 0.20%, whereas the BSE Sensex kicked off the day at 82,404.54, up by 77.49 points or 0.09%. Concurrently, retail inflation fell to an over eight-year low of 1.54% in September, dropping below the Reserve Bank’s acceptable range primarily due to the reduced prices of vegetables, fruits, and pulses, as reported by the government on Monday.
Analysts suggest that while the general sentiment is improving due to the evolving trade discussions between India and the United States, uncertainties regarding tariffs still impact investor confidence.

Nifty 50 – Technical View
Nifty 50 has immediate support at 25,150 and 25,000, while resistance lies near 25,300 and 25,400. A sustained move above 25,300 could invite short-covering toward 25,450 levels, while a dip below 25,000 may trigger mild profit booking.
Bank Nifty
Bank Nifty will find key support at 56,300 and 56,000, with resistance seen near 56,600 and 57,000. The index continues to consolidate within a defined range, and a breakout on either side will determine the next directional move.
