According to Nagaraj Shetti of HDFC Securities, the market’s bounce back from the previous dip suggests a short-term bullish trend. A sustained move above 22,900–23,000 levels may push Nifty towards 23,400–23,500 quickly, with immediate support at 22,700.

The Indian Rupee appreciated to 86.05 per USD on April 11, recovering from its previous close of 86.69 on April 10.

Analysts attribute the rebound to risk-on sentiment and stronger regional currencies, especially after the US paused reciprocal tariffs for 90 days.
