- Target: 52,423 for upside; in case of rejection, look for retracement support at 51,788.
Flat Opening (near previous close)
If Bank Nifty opens near 51,277 to 51,454:
- The immediate resistance will be 51,454, which could turn into a support zone if broken.
- A sustained break above 51,454 will likely target the resistance at 51,788, with the next move towards 51,994.
