Nazara Technologies Ltd., Macrotech Developers Ltd., Aditya Birla Capital Ltd. and Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd. are the stocks in focus before going to trade on Thursday.

Nazara raised up to Rs 900 crore via preferential issue of shares at an issue price set at Rs 954.27 per share and will acquire a 19.35% stake in subsidiary Absolute Sport (Sportskeeda) for Rs 145 crore.

Macrotech, which operates under the Lodha brand, will acquire additional stakes in three Maharashtra-based digital infrastructure firms for a cumulative amount of Rs 240 crore.

ABCL received a no-objection letter from the Reserve Bank of India for the proposed merger of Aditya Birla Finance Ltd. with itself.

GRSE received confirmation from Carsten Rehder Schiffsmakler and Reederei GmbH & Co. for the construction and delivery of four more multi-purpose vessels on Wednesday.

The benchmark equity indices snapped two sessions of gains and ended lower on Wednesday amid caution as markets await the much-anticipated interest rate cut in the US by the Federal Reserve after keeping it unchanged in eight consecutive meetings.

The NSE Nifty 50 ended 41 points or 0.16% lower at 25,377.55, and the S&P BSE Sensex ended 131.43 points or 0.16% lower at 82,948.23. Intraday, both the Nifty and the Sensex rose as much as 0.3% to hit their new record highs of 25,482.20 and 83,326.38 respectively.

On the downside, 25,280–25,300 serves as an immediate support base for Nifty, followed by the 21-double exponential moving average support, which is placed near 25,080 levels, said Hrishikesh Yedve, assistant vice president of technical and derivatives research at Asit C. Mehta Investment Intermediates Ltd.

As long as Nifty stays above 25,080, a buy-on-dips strategy is advisable, with the potential for the index to test 25,600 in the short term, he added.

China's central bank and the Bank of England will also announce their rate decision on Thursday, which is expected to follow the Fed’s move, said Siddhartha Khemka, head of research in wealth management at Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd. "Hence, we expect the market to remain volatile in the near term with rate-sensitive sectors in focus."

Bank Nifty, which formed a strong bullish candle on a daily scale, will encounter short-term resistance near the psychological level of 53,000, Yedve said. If Bank Nifty sustains above this level, the rally could extend towards 53,500-53,800, he added.
