Overnight & Global Cues
Global markets have presented a mixed to negative picture overnight. US indices saw a significant drop on July 23, with the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite falling due to disappointing Big Tech earnings that highlighted increased AI spending and negative free cash flow. The week ending July 26, however, concluded with the Dow up 0.46% and the S&P 500 up 0.05%, though the Nasdaq 100 declined by 1.15%. A major concern remains the escalating geopolitical tensions in West Asia and fresh attacks in the Red Sea, which have pushed Brent crude oil prices past the $100 per barrel mark. This surge in crude is a significant headwind for the Indian economy, raising inflation concerns and potentially limiting the Reserve Bank of India's scope for monetary easing. On the domestic front, Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) continued their selling streak, offloading equities worth ₹3,892.80 crore on July 24 and remaining net sellers for the previous week with provisional outflows of ₹71.8 billion. Conversely, Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) provided crucial support, with net buying of ₹5,453.60 crore on July 24, absorbing some of the FII selling pressure.
Recent Developments
Reliance Industries announced its Q1 FY27 financial results on July 17, 2026. The company reported revenues broadly in line with analyst forecasts, while statutory earnings per share (EPS) exceeded expectations by 5.2%. Following these results, most brokerages, including Goldman Sachs, Nomura, Citi, and Jefferies, maintained 'Buy' recommendations for RELIANCE, with a consensus target price indicating a potential upside of 24%. Analyst 12-month price targets average ₹1,681.69, suggesting a potential upside of over 31% from current levels, despite some minor target adjustments attributed to higher interest costs and retail margin dynamics. In other corporate news, Reliance-owned Karkinos Healthcare recently achieved a milestone by crossing one lakh HPV DNA tests.
Key Levels to Watch
For today's session, RELIANCE opened at ₹1,288.20, above its previous close. Immediate technical levels suggest a pivot point at ₹1275.83. Key resistance levels to monitor are at ₹1283.66, followed by ₹1295.13 and ₹1302.96. On the downside, immediate support is seen around ₹1264.36, with further cushions at ₹1256.53 and ₹1245.06. The 52-week high and low data are not available for this session. Traders should note the broader weekly trading range for Reliance Industries is anticipated between ₹1,140.47 on the downside and ₹1,428.77 on the upside, with major weekly resistance at ₹1,387.33.
Opening Outlook
As the market opens, RELIANCE will likely be influenced by the ongoing global risk-off sentiment driven by crude oil prices and the FII selling trend. However, the stock's positive pre-open and Q1 earnings performance, coupled with a supportive DII buying trend, could provide some stability. Traders should closely monitor the ₹1,283.66 resistance level in early trade, as a sustained move above it could signal further upside towards the ₹1,295-₹1,300 zone. Conversely, a failure to hold above the pivot point of ₹1275.83 might see the stock retesting lower support levels. The broader market sentiment, particularly the movement of crude oil prices and any fresh FII/DII data releases, will be critical in determining the intra-day trajectory for Reliance Industries.
