What moved the IEX share price today?

Sentiment improved after a CERC lawyer told APTEL they would take instructions on withdrawing the 2025 market coupling order. The update reduced perceived regulatory risk and supported near-term buying interest ahead of the January 9 hearing, where investors expect greater clarity.

What is JM Financial’s target and view on IEX?

JM Financial set a Rs 160 target and noted market coupling remains uncertain. The call points to selective upside if regulatory fears continue to ease, while advising caution around headline risk. Traders may prefer buying near support and trimming near resistance until clarity emerges.

What are the key technical levels to watch on IEX?

Immediate support is around Rs 131 to Rs 133. The 50-DMA near Rs 140 is a pivot. Resistance sits at Rs 145 to Rs 148, with a breakout opening Rs 155 to Rs 160. Bollinger Bands span roughly Rs 131 to Rs 147, with ATR near Rs 4 to Rs 5.

What upcoming events could affect IEX this month?

Two events stand out: the January 9 APTEL hearing on CERC market coupling, which could shift policy expectations, and the January 29 results, where updates on volumes and guidance will matter. Both can influence the IEX share price and short-term positioning.
