Sensex last close (7 Aug): 78,499.17 (-455.59 pts, -0.58%). ICICI -2.5% removed ~138 pts. TCS +3.36%, Reliance +0.74% provided cushion. Bajaj Fin -5.84%. Published Sunday 9 Aug.
The Sensex prediction for tomorrow on Monday 10 August 2026 has a clear asymmetry built in from Friday’s composition dynamics. Sensex closed at 78,499.17, falling 455 points (-0.58 percent) ; more than double the percentage decline of Nifty 50 (-0.27 percent). The reason: ICICI Bank at approximately 7 percent Sensex weight fell 2.5 percent, removing approximately 138 Sensex points in one stock’s move. The Sensex prediction for tomorrow for tomorrow therefore has a mirror image opportunity: when ICICI Bank reverses its decline on Monday, the same composition logic works in this outlook’s favour. A 2 percent ICICI Bank recovery would add approximately 138 Sensex points to the Sensex prediction for tomorrow directly, creating a disproportionate Sensex recovery versus Nifty. Published on Sunday August 9, this Sensex prediction for tomorrow benefits from knowing Friday’s US NFP result and the Dow Jones close, completing the information picture for tomorrow. Ankit Jaiswal, Senior Research Analyst at Univest, and Kunal Singla, Associate Director at Univest, present the complete Sensex prediction for tomorrow.

The Composition Asymmetry in the Sensex Prediction for Tomorrow
Friday created a specific arithmetic setup for the Sensex prediction for tomorrow. Three Sensex stocks moved significantly:
| Stock | Friday Move | Sensex Weight | Index Impact | Sensex prediction for tomorrow Reversal Potential |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ICICI Bank | -2.50% to Rs 1,421 | ~7% | -138 pts drag | +138 pts if +2% recovery |
| Bajaj Finance | -5.84% to Rs 1,078 | ~3.5% | -85 pts drag | +42 pts if +3% partial recovery |
| TCS | +3.36% to Rs 2,452.70 | ~4% | +88 pts positive | +44 pts if sustains half |
| Reliance Industries | +0.74% to Rs 1,334.80 | ~8% | +39 pts positive | +20 pts if sustains |
Ankit Jaiswal notes that the Sensex prediction for tomorrow’s most efficient trade for Monday is the ICICI Bank reversal: a 2 percent recovery in ICICI Bank adds more Sensex points than almost any other single Nifty 50 stock could provide. This compositional fact is why the Sensex prediction for tomorrow could dramatically outperform Nifty on Monday if private banks recover.
Two Recovery Catalysts for the Sensex Prediction for Tomorrow
Catalyst 1 ; IT continuation: TCS at Rs 2,452.70 (+3.36 percent Friday) is the Sensex prediction for tomorrow’s confirmed momentum carry. TCS sustaining above Rs 2,440 on Monday morning contributes 80-90 Sensex points and is the lowest-risk positive in this outlook. Infosys at Rs 1,175.10 (+0.87 percent) adds another 20-25 Sensex points at its weight if held. Together, IT sector continuation provides 100-120 Sensex points of structural positive for the Sensex prediction for tomorrow.
Catalyst 2 ; PSU-private rotation reversal Day 3: The PSU-private rotation that moved institutional capital from ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank into SBI has been running three sessions. SBI‘s Q1 FY27 result (now confirmed and processed by all institutions over the weekend) removes the final uncertainty that justified holding SBI over ICICI Bank. Kunal Singla identifies Monday’s opening 30 minutes as the window when this rotation begins reversing in this outlook.
Sensex Technical Levels for the Prediction for Tomorrow
| Level | Zone | Significance for Sensex prediction for tomorrow |
|---|---|---|

| Friday close | 78,499.17 | Sensex prediction for tomorrow reference level; reclaiming by 10 AM = positive |
| Recovery target | 78,700-78,800 | Base case for Sensex prediction for tomorrow on ICICI partial recovery and TCS holding |
| Bull case | 79,000-79,200 | Full ICICI recovery (+2%), TCS sustaining, Bajaj Fin stabilising |
| Major resistance | 80,000 | Psychological ceiling; needs multiple positive catalysts together |
Reliance Industries: The Sensex prediction for tomorrow Anchor for Tomorrow
Reliance Industries at Rs 1,334.80 (+0.74 percent Friday) confirmed its role as the Sensex’s most independent large-cap, gaining while the index fell. Three simultaneous positive catalysts ; Jio ARPU re-rating from Bharti Airtel‘s Rs 261 ARPU result, O2C feedstock cost improvement from crude at Rs 7,356 and Reliance Retail structural expansion ; are all intact. Ankit Jaiswal identifies Reliance above Rs 1,330 at Monday open as the Sensex prediction for tomorrow’s anchor: at 8 percent Sensex weight, Reliance sustaining contributes 70-80 Sensex points of structural positive in this outlook regardless of banking sector noise.
