The Nifty is hovering near its critical support level of 25,856 and 20 DEMA at 25,838. A break below could signal a bearish trend, while 26,000-26,050 acts as resistance. Analyst Vinay Rajani of HDFC Securities recommends buying NBCC (₹117) with a target of ₹125 and IDBI Bank (₹101) with a target of ₹114, citing bullish technicals and sector strength.
