Nifty Outlook :

As stated into earlier blog, breaching a level of 6160 was considered negative for a short term and we have seen more than 5% fall from it's highest closing of 6317.35 to yesterday's closing of 5989.6.
Now 5900 to 5890 will be considered as a good support level if market wants to sustain in the bull run.Again 6170-6190 would be major resistance zone to sustain above.
Important Support : 5970 / 5910
Important Resistance : 6140 / 6190



Report of the meeting held on 13th Nov.2013 by Mr.R.Rajan
MUMBAI: Seeking to calm currency markets, the Reserve Bank today said the current account deficit in 2013-14 will be $ 56 billion-- much lower than the quantum projected earlier-- and there is no fundamental reason for rupee depreciation. "Our estimates now is that CAD this year will be $ 56 billion, less than 3 per cent of GDP and $ 32 billion less than last year.... Of course, some of that compression comes of our strong measures to curb gold import," RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan said at a hurriedly called press conference.
The current account deficit (CAD), which is the difference between outflow and inflow of foreign exchange, touched an all-time high of $ 88.2 billion or 4.8 per cent of the GDP in 2012-13. Earlier, the government had projected the CAD in the current fiscal at $ 70 billion, which was revised downwards to $ 60 billion by Finance Minister P Chidambaram on back of declining gold imports and recovery in exports. Referring to the recent decline in the value of rupee, the RBI chief said there is "no fundamental reason for volatility in the exchange rate". 
Continuing its slide for the sixth straight day, the rupee lost 17 paise to trade at a fresh two-month low of 63.88 in early trade on strong dollar demand from importers.
Rajan further said RBI was weighing various options to contain exchange rate volatility and would come out with 'appropriate' steps in the future.
