Sensex Today | Stock Market Live Updates: It is past noon at Dalal Street, and the markets pushing hard to break the shackles, as caution seems to be the prime theme of the day's trade. The markets are moving with some caution, even as it looks to start the new October Series on a positive note. The Nifty is trading above the 22,700 mark. The Sensex is up over 300 points and is aiming for the 75,000 mark.

This session comes after Nifty lost over 1,300 points so far in September, with today being the last trading session of the month. While it has been the worst September F&O series for the index in 25 years, a month-on-month comparison makes it the worst month that the index has had since 2018.

The bulls will take some comfort from the fact that expiry lows were protected and the index closed above the key 22,700 mark.

Sustaining above 22,800 - 22,850 levels on the upside will be key for a move back towards 23,000, where analysts believe that further short-covering could come.

The Nifty Bank managed to defend 54,000 on a closing basis and that remains the key downside level for the banking index. A move above 54,500 will be positive for the bulls.
