Crude Oil has finally started cooling, FIIs continue to show strong buying interest, and a sharp move in ICICI Bank’s ADR is adding a positive cue for the Indian banking space.<\/p>\n
The key question now:
\nCan Nifty cross 24,400 and open the door towards 24,575?<\/p>\n
##FII Buying Continues
\nInstitutional Activity \u2014 25 August 2026
\nSegment FII DII
\nCash Market +\u20b91,593.53 Cr +\u20b9230.26 Cr
\nIndex Futures -\u20b91,550.08 Cr \u2014
\nIndex Options +\u20b915,937.82 Cr \u2014
\nStock Futures +\u20b93,483.32 Cr \u2014
\nStock Options -\u20b9944.78 Cr \u2014<\/p>\n
The most important signal is that FIIs bought around \u20b91,594 crore in the cash market.
\nMore importantly, they were also strong buyers in stock futures, with buying of more than \u20b93,483 crore.<\/p>\n
##ICICI Bank ADR Jumps<\/p>\n
Another important overnight cue is the strong move in ICICI Bank’s ADR.
\nThis could provide a positive setup for ICICI Bank and the broader private banking sector at the Indian open.
