Angel One’s Rajesh Bhosale, an equity technical analyst, stated: “The Benchmark Index started the important Budget day on a positive note. However, as the day went on, the Budget announcement impacted prices, which cautiously moved within a range. Volatility increased in the second half, which led to a steep decline in prices below 24100. Despite this, prices recovered quickly, gaining ground and closing at a marginal loss of 0.14%, slightly below 24500.
