Analysis what the data is telling us about CHOLAFIN
In the last completed session, Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Ltd. closed -1.32% with futures open interest moving -1.2%. That combination — price falling while OI shrinks — is classified as Long Unwinding. Existing longs are exiting rather than new shorts being added; the move down lacks the conviction of fresh selling. The option PCR of 0.85 is balanced — no clear directional preference from option writers. Max-pain strike at ₹1,620 sits 4.3% above the current price, a mild magnet near expiry.
There have been no notable bulk or block deals from FIIs, mutual funds, or insurance companies in Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Ltd. over the last 30 sessions.
Putting it together, the smart-money picture for Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Ltd. leans cautious into the next session. The next scheduled earnings report is on 2026-10-28, with the consensus EPS estimate at ₹18.85333. Earnings days routinely override positioning signals — keep an eye on the calendar.
