Analysts hold mixed views on Muthoot Finance for the near term. While one sees upside potential towards Rs 3,200, another expects the stock to trade in the Rs 2,750–3,050 range. A third, however, warns that a break below Rs 2,839 could drag it down to Rs 2,604, advising investors to book profits at current levels.

Osho Krishan, Senior Analyst – Technical & Derivative Research at Angel One, said, "Muthoot Finance is in a strong uptrend, touching lifetime highs. Any dip towards Rs 2,750–2,700 should act as a support zone. Based on historical trends, the stock has the potential to touch Rs 3,200 in the near term."

Sebi-registered analyst AR Ramachandran commented, "The stock looks bearish but is overbought on daily charts, with strong resistance at Rs 2,955. Investors should consider profit booking, as a daily close below Rs 2,839 could drag the stock down to Rs 2,604 in the near term."   Jigar S Patel, Senior Manager – Technical Research at Anand Rathi, noted, "Support is placed at Rs 2,800 and resistance at Rs 2,950. A clear move above Rs 2,950 may lead to further upside towards Rs 3,050. In the short term, the stock is likely to trade between Rs 2,750 and Rs 3,050."
