Synopsis

Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE Updates | Indian benchmark equity indices slipped after initially opening higher on Monday, influenced by mixed global cues. The downturn was primarily driven by Kotak Mahindra Bank, which reported weaker-than-expected quarterly earnings, along with a decline in IT stocks.

Highlights of trade:

  • Waaree Energies IPO Fully Subscribed
  • India VIX gains 6%
  • Waaree Energies IPO opens for subscription
  • Kotak Mahindra Bank shares fall 6% post Q2 earnings
  • HDFC Bank shares jump 3% on Q2 beat, IPO nod
  • JM Fin shares rise 5% as RBI lifts restrictions on co’s unit
  • Tech Mahindra shares rise 3% post Q2 show
  • Sensex opens 500 points higher, Nifty above 24,950

Market view by Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services.

With the US markets setting new record highs, the global stock market rally appears intact. The steady decline in crude and stability in the US bond yields impart resilience to the stock market despite the lingering tensions in the Middle East.

The hope raised by the Chinese stimulus and the cheap valuations of Chinese stocks have the potential to sustain the -Sell India, Buy China- tactical trade for some more time.

Sensex Today | Brokerage Take: Nuvama on Indiamart Intermesh

Nuvama has downgraded IndiaMart’s rating from “hold” to “reduce,” while lowering the target price to Rs 2,500, down from Rs 3,070.

The company’s collection growth has sharply slowed to 5% year-on-year, down from 14% in Q1 FY25, and is expected to remain in low double digits, which may negatively impact revenue growth moving forward. Although margins have improved due to reduced marketing expenses, there is an increasing risk of further underperformance in growth. The only positive note was a 14% year-on-year increase in unique business inquiries.
