IRFC Elliott Wave analysis: Wave II correction nearing completion before major bullish rally

Indian Railway Finance Corporation Ltd. (IRFC) is correcting within a double three Elliott Wave pattern in wave II after completing a strong five-wave rally in wave I.

Indian Railway Finance Corporation Ltd. (IRFC) has maintained a strong bullish trend over the past months. After forming a significant low, the stock started a powerful rally, completing a clear five-wave advance in wave I. This upward move confirmed the larger bullish cycle and showed strong investor confidence.

Currently, IRFC is in a corrective phase within wave II. This pullback aims to retrace part of the prior wave I advance. The correction is forming a double three pattern (W)-(X)-(Y), a common Elliott Wave structure in complex corrections. The first leg, wave ((W)), has already completed. After that, the price bounced in wave ((X)). Now, price action suggests that wave ((Y)) is likely to unfold soon before wave II reaches its base.

Chart

The broader bullish view stays valid as long as the price remains above the key invalidation level at ₹19.30. We do not recommend selling at current levels. Instead, traders should prepare for potential buying opportunities once the wave II correction ends.

Once the correction finishes, a strong wave III rally is expected to start. This next bullish leg is likely to take prices to new highs, continuing the long-term uptrend. Investors and traders should watch the upcoming support zones closely, as they may offer attractive low-risk entry points in line with the right-side bullish view.
