A technical analyst said the stock looked "slightly bearish" on charts while another suggested that it remains a strong 'buy-on-dip' candidate.

"Jio Financials is slightly bearish on daily charts with strong resistance at Rs 236. A daily close below the support of Rs 221 could lead to a target downward target of Rs 200 in the near term," said Sebi-registered research analyst AR Ramachandran.

"Support will be at Rs 220 and resistance at Rs 236. A decisive move above Rs 236 level may trigger a further upside towards Rs 250. The expected trading range will be between Rs 220 and Rs 250 for the short term, said Jigar S Patel, Senior Manager - Technical Research Analyst at Anand Rathi.

"Jio Financial remains a strong 'buy-on-dip' candidate, with Rs 235 being a crucial resistance for further upside traction. However, the stock remains in a broader downtrend and the view will be negated if it falls below Rs 205, which may trigger renewed selling pressure," said Ameya Ranadive, CMT, CFTe & Senior Technical Analyst at StoxBox.

The scrip traded higher than the 5-day, 10-, 20-day and 30-day simple moving averages (SMAs) but lower than the 50-day, 100-, 150-day and 200-day SMAs. Its 14-day relative strength index (RSI) came at 51.89. A level below 30 is defined as oversold while a value above 70 is considered overbought.

As per BSE, the stock has a price-to-equity (P/E) ratio of 275.77 against a price-to-book (P/B) value of 5.88. Earnings per share (EPS) stood at 0.83 with a return on equity (RoE) of 2.13. According to Trendlyne data, Jio Financial has a one-year beta of 1.3, indicating high volatility.
