Analysis what the data is telling us about LUPIN

In the last completed session, Lupin Ltd. closed -1.02% with futures open interest moving +10.3%. That combination — price falling while OI builds — is classified as Short Buildup. Fresh short positions are being added on weakness, which historically prefaces further downside until shorts are forced to cover. The stock's option PCR sits at 0.53, indicating heavy call-side writing — option dealers see resistance overhead. Max-pain strike at ₹2,400 sits 1.5% 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 Lupin Ltd. over the last 30 sessions.

Putting it together, the smart-money picture for Lupin Ltd. points to a softer setup at the next open.
