Banking stocks surged after the RBI allowed loans against foreign-currency deposits, with HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank gaining over 2.5% each. By June 25, however, volatility persisted as traders remained cautious ahead of the weekly expiry, with Nifty attempting to hold above the 23,800-support zone. Overall, the week reflected a tug-of-war between supportive domestic cues and global headwinds, leaving the indices range-bound but stock-specific action vibrant.
