The index closed 152.60 points or 0.68 percent higher at 22,666.30, from the previous close, forming bullish candle on the daily chart.
"Nifty maintained its strength by staying above 22500 throughout the day. Additionally, it exceeded the previous all-time high of 22,619.

"Over the short term, the index might consolidate within a range. On the lower end, support is placed at 22500, below which the index might fall back into consolidation," he added.
