On Tata Chemicals, he said that the two-day stellar rally in the Tata Group stock just before the results indicates that the company could report surprise numbers. "We have seen a very strong rally in Tata Chemicals over the last two days. Today's rally has taken the counter above the 100-day exponential moving average (EMA), placed around ₹755, and the stock is now testing the 200-day exponential moving average as well. This is also an indication that there could be a positive surprise in Tata Chemicals' numbers," he said.

Tata Chemicals stock: Technical view Harish Jujarey, AVP, head - technical equity research, Prithvi Finmart, said that Tata Chemicals' stock price has witnessed a strong recovery from its March lows of around ₹580 and is currently approaching the earlier breakdown zone near ₹780. Technically, the stock has moved above its short-term 50 and 100-day simple moving averages on the daily charts, indicating improving momentum.
"If the price sustains above the ₹780–₹790 zone, it could pave the way for further upside towards the 200-day moving average, which is placed around ₹820. A decisive breakout above ₹820 may strengthen the bullish bias and may propel the price towards the long-term downward sloping trendline resistance near ₹880," said the analyst.
