Nifty closed last week at 25,114, up 8 sessions straight, but FIIs sold ₹ 3,577 cr while DIIs absorbed ₹ 13,703 cr. Analysts see range-bound trade between 24,750-25,250 unless a clear breakout occurs. Above 25,250-25,300 could open 25,600-25,800; below 24,750 risks 24,200. With VIX subdued and sector rotation favoring defense, IT & PSU banks, traders await US Fed cues.
