A sustained move above the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA), placed at 22,820, Pabitro Mukherjee, Deputy Vice President–Research at Bajaj Broking, said, could signal a further pullback towards the 23,100–23,200 resistance zone. Failure to cross 22,820 could extend the consolidation seen over the previous two sessions within the 22,370–22,820 range.
