Stocks and Triggers to Watch in the Nifty PSU Bank Space
PSU banks are sensitive to credit growth and government policy signals. After a 2.20 percent rise on Thursday, a pullback of under 1 percent looks like profit booking, though a close near the low is a caution.
In the F&O segment, the nearest Nifty options expiry is 3 November 2026, the day after Monday. Among the strikes Univest checked, call open interest was highest at the 23,500 strike and put open interest was highest at the 22,700 strike, with a put-call ratio of approximately 1.60. India VIX rose 1.19 percent to 15.30 on Friday, and Univest’s analysts treat these strikes as reference points, not predictions.
Univest’s analysts suggest treating this nifty psu bank prediction for monday as a preparation note for Monday, 2 November 2026, rather than a signal that changes over the weekend.

Analyst View for Monday
Kunal Singla suggests that the index needs to reclaim 8,312.50, the previous close, before the tone improves, with 8,215.45 the support to watch.
Ankit Jaiswal flags that the four-day run has paused, and a hold above 8,215 would keep the broader move intact.
A fair reading of this nifty psu bank prediction for monday is that Friday’s data sets the context, while Monday’s first hour decides how much of it carries forward.
