Speaking on the current market scenario, "The Indian stock market is awaiting profit booking as the market has been surging from pre-Diwali trade sessions. After the F&O expiry yesterday, I am awaiting around 100-150 points correction at Nifty once it touches the 12,000 levels. In my opinion any long dip in the market from now should be considered as a buying opportunity."
