Key Drivers for Monday
- Bajaj Finance rose 0.42 percent, with a high of 968.00 and a low of 950.70.

Anyone following this nifty financial services ex bank prediction for monday should keep the next session’s opening range in view before reading too much into early moves.
Stocks and Triggers to Watch in the Nifty Financial Services Ex Bank Space
Bajaj Finance is the largest listed non-bank lender and a useful gauge for the group. Its modest gain on a strong market day suggests selective rather than broad buying.
In the F&O segment, Univest’s analysts suggest watching India VIX and open-interest changes near the support and resistance levels above before drawing conclusions. A VIX that stays near 14.40 supports range-bound option pricing, while a jump would widen expected ranges.
Univest’s analysts suggest treating this nifty financial services ex bank prediction for monday as a preparation note for Monday, 12 October 2026, rather than a signal that changes over the weekend.

How Friday’s Broader Session Unfolded
The Nifty 50 closed at 22,520.45, up 1.30 percent, with a high of 22,580.75 and a low of 22,294.75. The Sensex closed at 72,472.33, up 1.23 percent, and the Bank Nifty closed at 55,256.65, up 1.36 percent. India VIX, the market’s fear gauge, fell 5.76 percent to 14.40, which usually points to calmer expectations for near-term swings. The Friday gains followed a sell-off in the previous session, so part of the move may be a rebound rather than a fresh trend. The trigger for the broad gain was not independently confirmed.
This nifty financial services ex bank prediction for monday will be most useful when read alongside the support and resistance table above.
Analyst View for Monday
Kunal Singla suggests that Bajaj Finance can stay steady above 950.70, with 968 the level that would signal stronger momentum.
Ankit Jaiswal flags that funding costs and credit quality are more important here than broad market direction.
A fair reading of this nifty financial services ex bank prediction for monday is that Friday’s data sets the context, while Monday’s first hour decides how much of it carries forward.
