The stock markets are witnessing a downturn today with both the Sensex and Nifty 50 falling over 1% each.

This drop comes amidst mixed Q1 results raising concerns about sustaining current market valuations. Despite the day's decline the overall market outlook remains bullish technically with key support levels at Rs 24,074 for Nifty 50 and Rs 79,223 for Sensex. Unless these levels get breached, we can look for buy positions.
