On April 24, 2026, the Indian stock market experienced a decline, with the Nifty 50 index closing at 23,907, down 1.10%. This drop marks the third consecutive day of losses, driven by widespread selling in technology stocks and global concerns over rising crude oil prices. Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, noted that the Nifty opened at 24,100.55 and reached an intraday low of 23,813.65. Technical indicators suggest immediate support between 23,650 and 23,700, while resistance is seen at 24,050 to 24,150. Bagadia also highlighted the Bank Nifty index, which closed at 56,089.75 after fluctuating between 56,460.50 and 55,750.40. He recommends three stocks for investors: IDBI Bank at ₹76.17 with a target of ₹83.45, Lloyds Enterprises at ₹67.53 with a target of ₹73.90, and NMDC at ₹89.29 with a target of ₹95. Investors are advised to remain cautious and confirm price movements before making new investments.
