An over 3-percent drop in banking heavyweight HDFC Bank, along with selling in other banking stocks, dragged Nifty Bank below a key support level, paving the way for potential further downside. All banking index constituents except ICICI Bank were in red today, as earnings reports from lenders poured in.
Nifty Bank lost about 1,043 points, or 2.26 percent to end at 45,015 points. At one point during the day the index was down over 1,200 points.
"Afterfour days of sideways consolidation,the index broke its recent swing low of 45,500 support. The next support for the index are 44,800 and 44,000 are the supports for the coming week. While 46,000 is building up as a resistance," said Akshay Bhagwat, Senior VP Derivative research at JM Financial.
He added thatahead of theJan monthly expiry, there is a notable shift of OI in CE selling bets from 47,000 to 46,000, hinting 46,000-46,200 levels are building up as a resistance. Put writers shiftedtheir OI support base to lower strikes at 44,000as selling pressure aggravated in the day trading session.
In the afternoon trade, HDFC Bank was down over 3 percent at Rs 1,430, extending the last week's losses. The stock has fallen over 15 percent in the last one week. Investors dumped HDFC Bank after its December quarter financials showed a strain on margin, sluggish deposit growth, and decadal low earnings per share (EPS).
