Key Highlights For Share Market Today

• Positive start for Indian indices; Derivatives steady with bullish sentiments.
  
  
• March IIP growth disappoints: IIP growth less than ICRA's estimate of 3.3%; lower response rates probably distorted estimates, with the likelihood of revisions in incoming data.
  
  
• Kotak cautious on valuations: Kotak Institutional Equities points to persistent global issues and expensive valuations, including those in large-cap financials, as signs of market complacency.
  
  
• Bullish derivatives: Strong put writing at the 24,000 strike and rising PCR at 1.17 indicate the accumulation of bullish sentiment; a near-term resistance level is 24,500, with 24,000 seen as strong support.
  
  
• Despite a slight decrease, volatility is still relatively high: The India VIX dropped by 1.27% to 16.94 and is above the 15 mark, signaling opportunities for sudden intraday volatility.
