On the outlook for the Bank Nifty index, Neeraj Sharma, AVP Technical and Derivatives Research at Asit C Mehta, said, "The Bank Nifty index opened with a big gap up and registered an all-time high of 51,133.20, finally settling the day on a positive note at 50,980. The Bank Nifty produced a hanging man candlestick pattern on top, which awaits further confirmation. The index has broken over the 49,975 barrier and continues climbing to new highs. If the Bank Nifty remains above its breakthrough level, the bull runs might extend to 52,000-52,700. On the downside, trend line support is nearing 50600 levels, with the recent breakout point at 49,975."

"The India VIX Index has retraced from its recent highs and came close to the 19 mark, which signifies rising confidence of investors in the Indian equity market. This happened after the Exit Polls gave the incumbent Narendra Modi government a third term. Suppose the actual Lok Sabha Election result comes in sync with the Exit Polls. In that case, we can witness further nosedive in the Indian VIX today, and the index may soon touch the 15 mark," said Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking.

Lok Sabha Election results in focus

Expecting the current Indian stock market rally to continue further, Siddhartha Khemka, Head of Retail Research at Motilal Oswal said, "We expect the market to reach new highs given the clear majority for the ruling party in exit polls, good macro trends, and solid corporate earnings. One can focus on manufacturing, capex, infrastructure and financials as a long-term investment theme."
