“This is with reference to our earlier disclosure pertaining to Sale of NPA Portfolio to JC Flowers ARC on December 17, 2022.

Technical analysts largely remained bearish on the counter. Support could be seen around Rs 23-24 levels. On the higher end, near-term resistance will be at Rs 26.
Osho Krishan, Senior Research Analyst – Technical & Derivatives at Angel One, said, “Rs 23 level is likely to provide cushion, while a breach beyond the same could disrupt the intermediate trend and YES Bank’s stock could plunge towards the Rs 21-odd zone. On the higher end, a decisive surge beyond the Rs 26-27 zone is likely to trigger momentum for potential upside of around Rs 30-32 in the comparable period.”
Ravi Singh, Senior Vice-President (Retail Research) at Religare Broking, said, “The counter looked weak on daily charts. It may slip towards Rs 20 level in the near term. Immediate resistance will be at Rs 26.”
AR Ramachandran from Tips2trades said, “YES Bank looks slightly bearish on daily charts with strong resistance at Rs 26.15. A daily close below support of Rs 24.25 could lead the stock to a lower level of Rs 20 in the near term.”
Jigar S Patel, Senior Manager – Technical Research Analyst at Anand Rathi Shares and Stock Brokers, said, “Support will be at Rs 23.50 and resistance at Rs 25.75. A decisive close above Rs 25.75 level may trigger a further upside till Rs 29. The expected trading range will be between Rs 23 and Rs 29 for a month.”
