Despite this dip, the index remains well above its 21-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), indicating that the short-term uptrend is still intact. However, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) reaching a relatively high of 73.59, there are signs that the market may be entering overbought territory, suggesting a potential softening in momentum. Traders should monitor this closely for any shifts in market dynamics. Key technical levels to watch include immediate support at 23,920.

As the market moves forward, participants are likely to adopt a cautious approach, balancing optimism with the awareness of mixed signals across the broader market and individual sectors.
