Stock Market Today: The benchmark Nifty-50 index ended 0.52 per cent higher at 24,813.45 on Wednesday, providing a breather after a few days of losing streak. Bank Nifty also ended 0.32 per cent higher at 55,075.10. Most indices, with the exception of Consumer durables, ended with gains, led by Realty and Pharma. The broader indices also rebounded by 0.78%.

For the Nifty 50 Index, sentiment is likely to remain sideways to bearish as long as it stays below 25,000. However, if it reclaims the 25,000 level, sentiment may turn bullish, and short bets will lose their appeal, said Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities.

Key support for Bank Nifty stands at 54,000-53,500, as per Bajaj Broking

Looking ahead, we expect markets to remain firm, supported by healthy domestic macros, decent corporate earnings, and prospects of an above-normal monsoon this year. Institutional buying in broader markets should provide further support, said Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.

Key earnings due Thursday include ITC, Sun Pharma, Grasim, CONCOR, and GMR Airports.
