Analysis what the data is telling us about MARICO

In the last completed session, Marico Ltd. closed -0.45% with futures open interest moving -0.7%. 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 stock's option PCR sits at 0.61, indicating heavy call-side writing — option dealers see resistance overhead. Max-pain strike at ₹825 sits 2.0% 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 Marico Ltd. over the last 30 sessions.

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