Sensex, Nifty updates on 16 April 2025: The Sensex gained 309.40 points or 0.40 per cent to end at 77,044.29, close to the day’s high of 77,110.23, and Nifty 50 rose 108.65 points or 0.47 per cent to 23,437.20. The banking sector led the gainers, while the auto and pharma indices slipped to end in the red. India VIX was down 1.61% to ₹15.87 A widening trade deficit and easing inflation shaped market sentiment, with analysts expecting range-bound movement ahead of the Good Friday holiday. India’s trade deficit surged to $21.54 billion in March, as imports rose 11.4%, while exports grew just 0.7%. Meanwhile, retail inflation eased to a five-year low of 3.34%, driven by softer food prices. Analysts say the moderation in inflation, especially core inflation, could pave the way for an RBI rate cut. However, US policy shifts and geopolitical volatility remain key risks.

* Nifty 50 support seen near 23,200–23,300, with resistance at 23,700–23,800.
* Markets likely to trade in a narrow range ahead of the Good Friday holiday.
F&O Derivatives
* Call writing heavy at 24,000 strike (OI: 1.06 crore contracts) – strong overhead resistance.
* Put writing seen at 23,300 strike (OI: 1.01 crore contracts) – indicates base-building at lower levels.
* Sentiment slightly tilted towards bears, though early signs of bullish accumulation are emerging.
Volatility gauge
* India VIX down 19.81% to 16.12 – shows easing market anxiety, but:
* Still above the psychological 15 mark – implying potential for intraday volatility and whipsaw moves.
* Traders advised to stick to strict stop losses and risk management.
Sectoral focus

* Consumer-facing stocks could benefit from soft food prices.

Gold insights: Renisha Chainani, Head-Research at Augmont, says New high for gold again amid growth concerns
· Gold prices have surged to an all-time high today, fueled by a lower dollar, trade war tensions, and concerns about global economic growth as a result of US President Donald Trump’s tariff plans, which prompted safe-haven inflows.
· On Tuesday, President Trump ordered a probe into potential duties on all vital mineral imports, signalling a tougher stance on trade and potentially influencing relations with important suppliers, notably China.
· This development somewhat negates the market relief provided by the recent exclusion of certain tech products from reciprocal tariffs, as well as the suggestion of possible exemptions for auto parts.
· Increasing chances of a deeper recession, another turn in the geopolitical landscape, disruptions in global supply chains, and fears of increasing inflation coupled with a changing rate outlook suggest that gold will maintain its strong position in the near future.
