Market analysts suggest key support for the Nifty 50 lies between 23,000 and 23,120, with resistance expected in the 23,370-23,500 range. Options data indicates potential cushioning around 23,200-23,000 and resistance near 23,300-23,500. The put-call ratio stands at 0.96, with the India VIX easing to 12.29, pointing to a cautious near-term outlook.
