Muhurat Session Setup: Friday Close and the Weekly Rally
| Muhurat trading live updates index | Friday 6 November close | Move |
|---|---|---|
| Nifty 50 | 25,030.35 | Up 2.01% on the day |
| Sensex | 81,028.02 | Up 1,718 points, or 2.17% |
| Week of 2 to 6 November | Sensex up 5,631.69 points (7.5%); Nifty up 1,762.55 points (7.6%) | Best week since February 2021, per Goodreturns |
| Bank Nifty | Weekly gain of 8.04% | Led the rally |
| Muhurat trading live updates: Nifty vs 2025 close | 25,030.35 vs 25,868.60 | About 3.2% below (my arithmetic) |
| Muhurat trading live updates: Sensex vs 2025 close | 81,028 vs 84,426 | About 4.0% below (my arithmetic) |
The Nifty 50 reclaimed the 25,000 mark for the first time since February. On 9 October the index was at 22,520.45, so the Nifty has recovered about 11% in four weeks (my arithmetic), yet it still sits below last year's Muhurat session close. Muhurat trading live updates should therefore be read as a bounce within a larger drawdown, not as a fresh record.

Muhurat Trading Live Updates: Levels Analysts Are Watching
| Source | Level or view for the Muhurat session | Date or time |
|---|---|---|
| Ponmudi R, Enrich Money | Resistance 25,150 to 25,200; support 24,600 to 24,800; profit booking possible | Pre-Muhurat note |
| ICICI Securities | Weakness tied to crude, bond yields and geopolitics; sees healthy double-digit 12-month returns; Nifty 2-year forward P/E 16.6x vs 10-year average 18.2x | Samvat 2083 outlook |
| Upstox technical note | Weekly 200 EMA near 22,400 is strong support; 20 EMA crossed above the 50 EMA on the daily chart, last seen in July 2026 | 13:02 IST, 8 November |
| Market ticker | 22-carat gold Rs 13,160 per gram; crude USD 97.49; USD/INR 93.98 | 8 November |
These Muhurat trading live updates are views attributed to the named analysts, not Univest targets, and levels can change quickly. A move above 25,200 would test the resistance quoted by Ponmudi R, while a slide below 24,800 would test the support band. Crude near USD 97 is the macro risk most often cited in the Muhurat session previews.

Enrich Money, quoted by Goodreturns, puts the average gain in positive years at about 0.5%. KC Securities' Mahesh M Ojha expects a ninth straight higher Muhurat session. A rising streak is a statistic, not a forecast.

What to Watch During the Muhurat Session
| Muhurat trading live updates checklist | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Pre-open price in Muhurat trading live updates | Shows the opening bias at 2:15 PM to 2:17 PM matching |
| Bank Nifty follow-through | Banks led the weekly rally, so a fade would hit the Nifty 50 |
| Volumes and spreads in Muhurat trading live updates | Lower liquidity can widen spreads in the Muhurat session |
| Closing auction price | CAS stocks use the 3:00 PM to 3:15 PM VWAP as the reference price |
| Monday 9 November open after Muhurat trading live updates | First regular session of Samvat 2083, followed by a holiday on 10 November |
Retail investors treat the Muhurat session as a symbolic purchase, often of a small quantity of a quality stock. Brokers publish lists, such as our summary of ICICI Securities' Muhurat picks, but a pick is a view and not an instruction. Costs such as brokerage and STT still apply, and the Nifty Smallcap 100 can be more volatile than large caps in thin trade.
Conclusion
The Muhurat trading live updates for Sunday 8 November point to a short, thin Muhurat session from 2:20 PM to 3:30 PM, entered after the best week for the Nifty 50 and Sensex since February 2021. History favours small gains, yet the Nifty is still about 3% below last year's Muhurat close. Keep position sizes small, confirm your broker's timings and avoid reading too much into one hour.
