Analysts expect high volatility in domestic markets on the back of scheduled monthly expiry of the June month contracts and RIL AGM. “We’re currently seeing a time-wise correction in the market and it’s likely to end soon. We reiterate our advice to continue with the “buy on dips” approach until we see some sign of exhaustion or trend reversal,” Ajit Mishra, VP – Research, Religare Broking Ltd, said.
