ICICI Bank Share Price Today, 28 November 2025: Stock Hovers Near ₹1,390 as Bullish Options Activity Builds

Mumbai, 28 November 2025 — ICICI Bank Limited’s stock spent Friday’s session consolidating just below recent highs, with cash-market action steady but derivatives traders clearly leaning bullish.

ICICI Bank share price today: where the stock stands

On the NSE, ICICI Bank (ICICIBANK) ended around ₹1,388–1,391 per share on 28 November 2025, modestly lower than Thursday’s close of ₹1,392.2, a dip of roughly 0.2–0.3%. Daily data indicate an intraday range between about ₹1,388 and ₹1,398, with volumes a little over 3.3 million shares traded on the exchange. ^[1]

Key snapshot for 28 November 2025:

NSE close: ~₹1,388.5 (down ~0.27% vs previous close) ^[2]
Intraday range: roughly ₹1,388 – ₹1,398 ^[3]
Market capitalisation: ~₹9.9–10.0 lakh crore (₹9.92 trillion approx.) ^[4]
52‑week range: about ₹1,186 (low) to ₹1,500 (high) ^[5]
1‑week return: roughly +0.7–1.4% ^[6]
6‑month return: around −4% ^[7]
1‑year return: approximately +7–8% ^[8]

Economic Times’ liveblog through the day highlighted minor price swings between ₹1,387 and ₹1,396, with one‑month returns just above 1% and six‑month returns in negative territory, underlining that the stock is consolidating after a strong run. ^[9]

On the BSE, prices and ranges were similar, with midday quotes near ₹1,389 and volume in the hundreds of thousands of shares, reinforcing the picture of an actively traded, but not frantic, session. ^[10]

Market backdrop: private banks helping Nifty hold record territory

ICICI Bank’s quiet session comes after an energetic week for Indian equities. On Thursday, 27 November, both the Sensex and Nifty 50 hit fresh record highs before profit‑taking pared gains; the Sensex closed around 85,720, Nifty near 26,215. ICICI Bank was among the key contributors to the Nifty’s rally earlier in the week, alongside Bharti Airtel and Reliance Industries. ^[11]

Banking indices remain firm:

Nifty Bank and Nifty Private Bank have outperformed recently, with private lenders like ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank leading the charge. ^[12]
Broader indices—mid‑caps and small‑caps—have shown more mixed action, suggesting investors are increasingly hiding out in liquid large‑cap financials as benchmarks hover near all‑time highs. ^[13]

The macro backdrop also supports banks: commentary from the RBI and global central banks has kept alive hopes of rate cuts in coming months, which markets are reading as supportive for loan growth and valuation multiples. ^[14]

Heavy trading and strong liquidity on 28 November

A fresh piece of today’s story is how ICICI Bank traded, not just where it closed.

A MarketsMojo “Stocks in Action” note points out that on 28 November 2025, ICICI Bank:

Ranked among the most actively traded stocks by value.
Saw volume of about 7.54 lakh shares and traded value around ₹105 crore early in the session.
Opened near ₹1,392, hit an intraday high of ₹1,398.5 and a low of ₹1,389, with an early last‑traded price of ₹1,394 (about +0.09% vs the previous close). ^[15]

The same analysis emphasises that:

ICICI Bank has gained for three consecutive sessions, delivering about 2.7% cumulative returns over those days.
The stock is trading above its 5‑, 20‑, 50‑ and 200‑day moving averages, but still below the 100‑day moving average, signalling short‑term strength but a medium‑term ceiling that traders are watching. ^[16]
Delivery volume on 27 November was about 1.08 crore shares, roughly 22% higher than the five‑day average, which suggests real ownership interest rather than purely intraday churn. ^[17]

Moneycontrol’s live data around midday show a day range near ₹1,386–₹1,398 and BSE+NSE volume in the 3.5–3.8 million share zone, aligning with the view that ICICI remains one of the market’s core liquidity hubs. ^[18]

Derivatives action: call buyers crowd the ₹1,400 strike

If the cash market says “quiet consolidation,” the options market is whispering “cautiously bullish.”

A MarketsMojo derivatives report published today highlights that:

On 27 November 2025, ICICI Bank’s call options with ₹1,400 strike and 30 December 2025 expiry recorded the highest trading volume among its contracts, with about 4,868 contracts traded and turnover of approximately ₹8.08 crore. ^[19]
Open interest at this strike stands near 7,923 contracts, suggesting traders are building and holding positions rather than just flipping intraday. ^[20]
The underlying stock price at the time was around ₹1,394, placing it just below the key ₹1,400 level, a classic set‑up for traders betting on a near‑term breakout. ^[21]

The same article notes that ICICI Bank:

Outperformed its private‑banking peers and the Sensex on the options‑activity day, with about 0.29% one‑day gains versus a small sector decline and a modest rise in the benchmark index. ^[22]
Has delivered roughly 2.7% returns over the last three sessions, while trading above short‑ and medium‑term moving averages. ^[23]

In short: the options market is positioning around ₹1,400 as a pivotal level, with traders effectively voting that the stock can grind higher into year‑end so long as the broader market stays cooperative. ^[24]

Regulatory update: RBI compounding order and a small FEMA penalty

The big regulatory headline around ICICI Bank this week is not a new lending scandal or NPA surprise—it’s a rather small compounding order from the Reserve Bank of India.

According to Reuters via TradingView and a corporate disclosure: ^[25]

RBI issued a compounding order dated 25 November 2025, received by ICICI Bank on 26 November.
The order relates to foreign exchange regulations (FEMA), including delays in filing Form FCGPR / FCGPR (Part B) and certain procedural lapses around ESOP allotments to non‑resident investors. TechStock²+1
The financial impact is tiny: about ₹22.7 lakh (₹2.3 million) — effectively a rounding error for a bank that earns more than ₹12,000 crore in profit in a single quarter. ^[26]

Local coverage notes that ICICI Bank has already paid the compounding amount, framing the episode as a compliance clean‑up rather than a hit to its core business. ^[27]

So from a stock‑market perspective, the RBI action is symbolically important—regulators are watching minutiae—but financially insignificant.

Fundraising and capital: Tier II bonds and group IPO pipeline

Away from the equity screen, ICICI Bank is quietly working on its balance sheet and ecosystem:

The bank is in the market to raise about ₹4,000 crore via 15‑year Basel III Tier II bonds, with a call option after 10 years. Reports indicate bids were invited this week as part of a combined ₹7,500 crore bond plan alongside Canara Bank. ^[28]
This kind of Tier II issuance is routine for large banks and is primarily about optimising capital structure and supporting loan growth, not plugging a capital hole.

Meanwhile, a key affiliate is lining up a major listing:

ICICI Prudential Asset Management Company (ICICI Pru AMC) has reportedly secured SEBI’s nod and is targeting a roughly $1.2 billion IPO in the second week of December. ^[29]
ICICI Bank holds 51% in the asset manager and is expected to retain that stake post‑listing, meaning the IPO is more of a value‑unlock/visibility event than an exit. ^[30]

For equity investors, the combination of ongoing bond issuance and upcoming AMC IPO signals a bank that is still firmly in expansion and capital‑optimisation mode, not retrenchment.

Fundamentals check: earnings momentum still intact

Under the hood, ICICI Bank’s earnings story remains robust:

For FY2025 (year ended March 2025), consolidated profit after tax under Indian GAAP rose to about ₹51,029 crore, up roughly 15% year‑on‑year. Operating income grew nearly 17% YoY, underscoring broad‑based strength in core banking revenue. ^[31]
For the January–March 2025 quarter, standalone net profit hit a record ~₹12,630 crore, up 18% YoY, driven by ~14% deposit growth, strong loan growth and an improvement in asset quality (gross NPA ratio falling to about 1.67%). ^[32]
In Q2 FY26 (quarter ended September 2025), standalone net profit came in at roughly ₹12,359 crore, a 5% YoY increase despite weaker treasury income; lower provisions for bad loans supported the bottom line. ^[33]

On valuation:

Live market data today put ICICI Bank’s price‑to‑earnings (P/E) ratio around 18–19x trailing earnings and price‑to‑book near 3.0–3.1x, levels broadly in line with a high‑quality private sector lender. ^[34]

Ratings agencies remain comfortable: CRISIL reaffirmed AAA / AA+ (Stable) ratings on key ICICI Bank facilities in a November 19, 2025 release, signalling no red flags on credit quality. ^[35]

Taken together, the fundamental backdrop is still “high‑quality growth bank”, which is why even modest price pullbacks quickly attract dip‑buyers.

What short‑term analysts are saying today

Friday’s trading session also came with a flurry of fresh technical calls on ICICI Bank, mostly leaning bullish:

Business Today / Master Capital Services
- View: ICICI Bank has broken out of a “complex inverse head & shoulders” pattern, signalling a reversal of prior weakness.
- Suggested stance: Buy
- Target zone: ₹1,440 – ₹1,470
- Stop‑loss: ₹1,350 ^[36]
Moneycontrol / Samco Securities (Trade Spotlight)
- View: The stock is attempting a range breakout above the ₹1,385–1,390 band. It has reclaimed its 50‑day moving average, with the 200‑day MA near ₹1,368 acting as strong support and previous swing support at ₹1,350 holding firm.
- RSI is around 57 and rising, signalling improving momentum.
- Suggested stance: Buy
- Target: ₹1,500
- Stop‑loss: ₹1,340 ^[37]
ET Now / short‑term calls
- One televised recommendation cited by ET Now suggested a buy on ICICI Bank with a target near ₹1,430 and a stop‑loss around ₹1,370, again framing the stock as a momentum play within the private‑bank pack. ^[38]

Most of these calls agree on the same technical map:

Support zone: roughly ₹1,340–1,370
Breakout / resistance zone: ₹1,400–1,500
Structure: higher lows, reclaim of key moving averages, and options activity clustering around ₹1,400 calls. ^[39]

As always, these are analyst opinions, not guarantees—and each source explicitly flags them as educational, not personalised advice.

ADR check: IBN in US markets

For global investors, ICICI Bank trades in New York via the IBN ADR:

The latest available data show IBN closing around $31.01 on 26 November 2025, up over 1% on the day and sitting a few dollars below its 52‑week high near $34.6. ^[40]

Moves in the ADR typically mirror Indian‑market sentiment, though they can lag or amplify depending on broader US risk appetite and currency moves.

The big picture for 28 November 2025

Put all of this together and the 28 November 2025 story for ICICI Bank looks like this:

Price action: Slight red on the day, but within touching distance of recent highs and well above major support levels. ^[41]
Participation: Healthy cash‑market turnover and elevated delivery volumes, signalling ongoing institutional and long‑only interest. ^[42]
Derivatives: Call buyers are leaning into the ₹1,400 strike for December expiry, a classic expression of cautious optimism. ^[43]
Newsflow:
- A small RBI compounding order (~₹22.7 lakh) for past FEMA lapses—financially trivial but a reminder of regulatory scrutiny. ^[44]
- Capital‑raising via Tier II bonds and a planned IPO of ICICI Pru AMC, which together highlight balance‑sheet and ecosystem expansion. ^[45]
Fundamentals: Profits and asset quality remain strong, with FY25 net profit above ₹51,000 crore and Q2 FY26 earnings still growing despite margin and treasury headwinds. ^[46]

For investors and traders watching ICICI Bank today, the message from the market is basically:

“Nothing broken, plenty priced in, and the real battle is around ₹1,400.”

Whether that level turns into a durable floor or a stubborn ceiling will depend on how the next few weeks of macro data, RBI signals, and banking‑sector earnings expectations evolve.
