Titan finds an immediate support at ₹904 and the immediate resistance is at ₹985. If the current bullish trend sustains, Titan has to potential to climb new peaks. We expect the stock to pierce the four-digit and reach ₹1,040 or even to ₹1,128.

However, the decline in open interest is not a secular one, and there was marginal improvement on some days. Option trading indicates that the stock could move in ₹900-1,000 range.
