Nifty Pharma Prediction for Monday: Key Levels

Immediate support: 25,458, Friday's low; holding it preserves the consolidation structure.
Deeper support: 25,250, the next demand zone if selling extends.
Immediate resistance: 25,687, Friday's high.
Breakout level: 25,850; a close above would resume the sector's medium-term uptrend.

Ankit Jaiswal observes that the sector's consolidation between roughly 25,450 and 25,700 is happening on declining intraday ranges, typically a sign of accumulation rather than distribution. He has flagged US generic pricing commentary in the ongoing Q1 season as the variable most likely to break the range in either direction.
