Shares of Zomato Ltd., Adani Power Ltd., Ambuja Cements Ltd., and FSN E-Commerce Ventures Ltd. will be in focus on Friday.

Deepinder Goyal, CEO of Zomato Ltd., announced on Thursday that the company will be shutting down its Zomato Legends service immediately, just two months after its relaunch, citing "not finding product market fit" in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter).

The National Company Law Tribunal approved Adani Power's resolution plan to acquire Lanco Amarkantak Power for Rs 4,101 crore.

The Adani Group plans to divest shares worth $500 million, representing a 2.84% stake in Ambuja Cements. According to the terms of the deal accessed by NDTV Profit, the transaction value of the deal is Rs 4,197.8 crore, based on a floor price of Rs 600 per share.

Harindarpal Singh Banga and Indra Banga, promoters of FSN E-Commerce Ventures Ltd., the parent company of Nykaa, have proposed to sell up to 4.09 crore shares, which represents a 1.4% stake, via a block deal, according to terms reviewed by Bloomberg News.

The Nifty closed 41.30 points or 0.17%, higher at 24,811.50, while the S&P BSE Sensex ended 0.18% or 147.89 points up at 81,053.19. Both indices recorded their highest closing since Aug. 1.

The NSE Nifty 50 needs to break through the resistance zone between 24,950 and 24,960 for fresh bullish momentum, according to analysts.

For a fresh bullish trigger, analysts say that the index needs to overcome the hurdle at 24,950–24,960. On the downside, strong support is expected from the 21-day exponential moving average, located near 24,480.

As long as the Bank Nifty index remains above the 21-day EMA at 50,780, a buy-on-dips strategy is advisable, analysts say. A resistance is near the 51,200 level and a breakout above this could pave the way for the index to reach 51,500–51,800, according to analysts.

In the interim, analysts recommend maintaining a focus on a stock-centric approach, implementing proper risk-management strategies, and consistently secure profits at opportune times
