The option chain shows the heaviest call open interest at the 23,000 strike and the heaviest put open interest at 22,500, with a put-call ratio of 1.01 for the weekly expiry. GIFT Nifty pointed to a weak start near 22,663, but the index recovered from the open and now trades above the previous close.<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#F0F9FF;border-left:4px solid #2E7D32;border-radius:6px;padding:14px 18px;margin:18px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0;color:#1F4E79;font-size:14px;\"><strong>Quick Answer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:8px 0 0;\">Nifty expiry today looks range-bound on the option data, with put support at 22,700 and 22,500 and call resistance at 22,800 and 23,000, and a put-call ratio of 1.01. Analysts see support near 22,400 to 22,380 and resistance at 22,800 to 22,850, with 23,200 above, according to the Kotak Neo pre-market note. The US Federal Reserve meeting that starts today and the oil price near $115 are the outside triggers that can break the range. This is educational and not a recommendation to trade options.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Nifty expiry today is the Nifty weekly expiry, the contract expiry for the Nifty 50, and the day often brings sharp moves because option premiums decay quickly and writers adjust positions. This article reads the option chain at 10:11 AM, sets it beside the support and resistance levels from analysts, and checks how the early call played out.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of this Nifty prediction is to describe where the market stands on Nifty expiry today, not to predict a close. Option data is a snapshot that changes by the minute, so use the figures as reference points. It is educational and not advice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;\"><strong><a
