We still remain sanguine and expect this rally to extend towards the next immediate level of 11,900 first and then towards the magical figure of 12000. For the coming session, 11800–11784 would now be seen as immediate support base,” Chavan said.

Now, till 11,700 levels aren’t broken the overall trend remains positive.”
