India's benchmark equity indices ended at fresh closing highs on Thursday as markets rose sharply in the last hour of trade, led by rallies in metal, auto, and banking stocks.

The NSE Nifty 50 ended 470.45 points or 1.89% higher at 25,388.90, while the S&P BSE Sensex closed 1,439.55 points or 1.77% higher at 82,962.71, recording new highs.

The NSE Nifty 50 is expected to remain strong as the current market texture is bullish, according to analysts. On the upside, the rally could potentially continue toward the 25,470–25,500 range, while support is seen at 25,100, according to Rupak De, senior technical analyst at LKP Securities.

But buying on intraday correction and selling on rallies would be the ideal strategy for day traders, according to Shrikant Chouhan, head of equity research at Kotak Securities.

"For the day traders now, 25,300/82,700 and 25,200/82,500 would act as a key support zone, while 25,500–25,600/83,300–83,600 would be the key resistance areas for the bulls. However, below 25,200/82,500 uptrend would be vulnerable," he said.
