The Nifty India Defence Index has rallied to the upper end of its rising channel near the psychological 9,000 mark, with resistance around 9,150 emerging as a key pressure point, according to SEBI-registered analyst Rajneesh Sharma.
At the time of writing, the Nifty India Defence Index was trading at 8,823.10, up 30 points or 0.3% on the day.

Sharma indicated that while momentum remains intact, technical signals suggest caution.
The RSI, currently near 78.8, reflects an overbought zone, and recent price candles have been short-bodied—factors often associated with rally exhaustion.
He also noted a continued bearish RSI divergence, where momentum fails to confirm new highs in price action.

Sharma added that if rejection patterns appear near current levels, a pullback toward the 8,400–8,500 zone, aligned with the channel’s midline, could follow.
Until then, he suggested trend followers remain watchful, emphasizing that caution is warranted without being prematurely bearish.
