Indian Stock Market Trends and IRCTC Updates
The Indian stock market is expected to open higher on December 23, continuing its gains from the previous two days.
The Sensex and Nifty 50 indices rose significantly on Monday, supported by a stronger rupee and positive global market trends.
Analysts suggest that the market setup is bullish, but traders should be cautious and watch key support and resistance levels.
Meanwhile, IRCTC shares are in focus as they will stop trading in the F&O segment from February 25, 2026.
The stock ended higher on Monday, and its market cap rose to ₹54,524 crore.
The broader market showed strong buying interest in railway and defense stocks, driven by expectations from the upcoming Union Budget.
The rupee is expected to draw support from a softer dollar, but its advance may be limited by increased dollar buying by importers.
Overall, the market's mood is optimistic, but there are concerns about thin trading volumes closer to the end of the year.
Sensex and Nifty 50 likely to open higher on December 23, extending gains for the third session.
IRCTC shares will stop trading in the F&O segment from February 25, 2026, with existing contracts continuing until their respective expiries.
IRCTC stock ended 1.06% higher at ₹681.55 on Monday, with a market cap of ₹54,524 crore.
Broader markets outperformed with BSE Midcap and Smallcap indices rising 0.86% and 1.12% respectively.
Analysts recommend a buy-on-dips and sell-on-rallies strategy, with key support and resistance levels identified.
