Ankit Jaiswal notes that the natural gas price prediction for Monday is shaped by which of these two forces dominates on Monday: SBI&#8217;s confirmed earnings strength or Bajaj Finance&#8217;s Q1 result-related concerns spilling into the broader NBFC sector.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Technical_Levels_for_the_natural_gas_price_prediction_for_Monday\"><\/span><strong>Technical Levels for the natural gas price prediction for Monday<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Level Type<\/th>\n<th>Zone<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Immediate Support<\/td>\n<td>Rs 247-251<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Key Support<\/td>\n<td>Rs 240-244<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Immediate Resistance<\/td>\n<td>Rs 258-262<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Key Resistance<\/td>\n<td>Rs 268-274<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Kunal Singla observes that India VIX closed Friday at 12.16, unchanged from Thursday&#8217;s close.

Ankit Jaiswal of Univest identifies Rs 258-262 as the primary resistance and Rs 247-251 as the critical support for the natural gas price prediction for Monday. The US NFP at 6 PM IST today is the primary variable: monitor GIFT Nifty Sunday evening and at 9 AM Monday before positioning for the natural gas price prediction for Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Kunal Singla of Univest notes that the natural gas price prediction for Monday has a dual structure for Monday: the recovery case (IT and Auto momentum continues, SBI Q1 beat sustains, NFP healthy) and the continuation decline case (Bajaj Finance concerns spread to NBFCs, private banks extend selling, weak NFP). The natural gas price prediction for Monday&#8217;s support zone at Rs 247-251 is the line between these two scenarios on Monday.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #CC0000; border-radius: 8px; padding: 16px 20px; margin: 24px 0;\">\n<p style=\"color: #ffffff; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0;\"><strong style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Disclaimer:<\/strong> Data and figures in this article are sourced from publicly available information.
