BANK NIFTY

Bank Nifty closed the week 0.94% lower due to news from the RBI, which announced an increase in risk weight on personal loans and consumer credit from 100% to 125% for both banks and NBFCs. This news has fostered a negative sentiment in the lending sector. For the upcoming week, it will be crucial to monitor the performance of financial stocks. Banks with lower dependence on personal loans will be particularly important to watch.

Bank Nifty is expected to find support at 43,100 points, while it might encounter resistance at 44,800 points.
