Derivatives signal Short Covering
Price rose (+3.9%) on short-covering (OI down -13.6%), suggesting a temporary relief bounce rather than new buyers.

Analysis what the data is telling us about NHPC

In the last completed session, NHPC Ltd. closed +3.89% with futures open interest moving -13.6%. That combination — price rising while OI shrinks — is classified as Short Covering. It typically reflects existing short sellers closing positions, not fresh buying. Short-covering rallies can be sharp but tend to fade without follow-through demand. The stock's option PCR sits at 0.69, indicating heavy call-side writing — option dealers see resistance overhead.

There have been no notable bulk or block deals from FIIs, mutual funds, or insurance companies in NHPC Ltd. over the last 30 sessions.

Putting it together, the smart-money picture for NHPC Ltd. leans constructive into the next session.
