The analyst said Dr. Reddy’s has exited a months-long volatility contraction base with strong structural signals and volume support.

Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd has broken out of a volatility contraction base (VCB) pattern that developed over the past 7–8 months between ₹1,040 and ₹1,300, according to SEBI-registered analyst Rajneesh Sharma.

At the time of writing, shares of Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories were trading at ₹1,351.10, down 0.84% on the day.

Sharma noted that the breakout above the apex zone of ₹1,300–₹1,330 and a horizontal resistance near ₹1,356 was significant, given the prior rejections at those levels.

He cautioned, however, that the weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) is now entering overbought territory, which may lead to a temporary pause or retest of the breakout zone. 

“Breakouts from VCBs with already-elevated RSI tend to see a rest or sideways move before continuation,” Sharma said.

Sharma highlighted the Average True Range (ATR) trailing stop near ₹1,210 as confirmation that the trend is still early, while also warning against emotional chasing. 

“A controlled pullback to ₹1,300–₹1,330 could be healthy and offer better positioning,” he said.

For risk mapping, Sharma outlined three possible paths: bullish continuation above ₹1,380, sideways consolidation in the ₹1,330–₹1,380 range, or a structure failure below ₹1,280 if volume turns negative.

He said that the tight coil is broken, the structure is clean, and the volume supports the move, but stressed that confirmation is ongoing.
