CNBCTV-18 reported that the secretary at the department of investment and public asset management (DIPAM) confirmed the withdrawal of its decision of sharing revenue from convenience fees. Shares of IRCTC recovered after a sharp fall on Friday morning trade on the announcement of sharing half of its <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/government-asks-irctc-to-share-half-of-its-convenience-fees-revenue/articleshow/87338962.cms">convenience fees </a>with the government. On October 28, after the railway company informed stock exchanges of the government’s decision, many investors had criticised the move on social media portals. Shares of Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation recovered after losing more than 25% in the early trade on announcement of government asking IRCTC 50% of revenue coming from service charts on e-ticketing, i.e., convenience fees, with the government. The move came as a big shock to investors as it meant IRCTC would have to share a chunk of its revenue with the government. In FY21, IRCTC earned ₹299 crore from this segment, which is almost 40% of its revenue from operations of ₹783 crore. At 11:11 a.m. shares of the company were trading 4% lower at 875.95 per share.

IRCTC stock recovers losses as government reportedly withdraws decision on convenience fee revenue share

<ul><li>Shares of Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation have surged as much as 30% in just the last five days paving the way for the company to cross the ₹1 trillion-mark.</li><li>The railway company’s stock has grown a whopping 334% in 2021 so far.</li><li>Among other triggers fuelling the stocks, the latest one is the company starting many special tourist trains for the festive season.</li></ul>Investors value companies operating in a monopolistic business and Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (<keyword id="65866" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="irctc" source="Orion">IRCTC</keyword>) is a true example of that. The company’s market capitalisation has touched ₹1 trillion as its stock spiked about 8% on Tuesday, October 19. The railway company added ₹30,000 crore in market cap in just nine days as its shares continued to rally. The share price has skyrocketed 712% since it got listed in October 2019. IRCTC has become one of investors’ favourite stocks because of its monopoly in rail ticket booking. Currently, one of the major triggers fuelling the rally in the stock is the company starting many special tourist trains for the festive season. The stock was trading at ₹6,343 per share at 9:56 a.m., on Tuesday. The market cap of the company has crossed ₹1 trillion and is currently at ₹1.01 trillion. However, later in the day shares of the company suddenly corrected 15%. Apart from this, investors are awaiting development on the company’s plan to split the stock. On August 12, IRCTC approved a stock split in the ratio of 1:5 to enhance the liquidity in the capital market, widen the shareholder base and make the shares affordable to small investors. A stock split is generally done to make the stock more affordable for the small retail investors and increase liquidity. Moreover, its expansion plan in the hospitality sector has also impressed investors over the period of time.

In a week, shortened by a holiday, India's benchmark indices gained over 7%. However, the sharpest rise in percentage terms, among the blue-chip stocks, came from companies outside of the heavyweights like Reliance Industries, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), and the HDFC twins. American drug maker Gilead’s success in a clinical trial has given the world hope of finding a cure for COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. That led to an over- 1,000 point rally in the Sensex on Thursday (April 30) morning, in sync with <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/stock-market/news/dow-soars-530-points-as-coronavirus-treatment-optimism-overshadows-gdp-slump/articleshow/75460930.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">the optimism around the globe</a>. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="75459632" title="Indian-American-led clinical trial of remdesivir in COVID-19 treatment shows positive results" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div> The Indian benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty, have gone up 14% since April 3, but more than half of those gains came in the last week of trading ⁠— at a time when <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/policy/economy/news/this-is-how-global-economies-are-expected-to-grow-in-the-first-year-after-coronavirus-pandemic/articleshow/75441608.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">Moody’s slashed India’s growth forecast</a> for calendar year 2020 to 0.2%, from 2.5% it had projected in March, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/udaan-fires-half-its-contract-employees/articleshow/75357229.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">layoffs continue</a>, earnings from a top lender (<a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/axis-bank-q4-earnings-show-bad-loans-ease-but-ceo-amitabh-chaudhry-maintains-caution/articleshow/75429938.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">Axis Bank</a>) disappointed, and some of the world’s <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/sachin-bansal-takes-the-same-line-as-donald-trump-and-elon-musk-let-people-work-and-live-with-coronavirus/articleshow/75453465.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">most influential billionaires</a> lost their patience with the economic shutdown.

While the bigger picture looked bleak, there were quiet celebrations happening in different pockets of the Indian share market. At least two out of the top ten weekly gainers, IndusInd Bank and HDFC, were buoyed by hopes that loan defaults in India won't be as bad as previously expected.

The money did not come from the foreign investors. They continued to be net sellers in the cash market for the fourth straight month. It was domestic institutional investors like mutual funds that bought the most in this rally. “Markets this week rallied from the lows seen in March 2020. After almost a month of lockdown the world over, early signs of easing of the same along with some signs of the flattening of the COVID -19 curve spurred hope of economic activity resuming albeit at a slow pace. Some promise of a possible cure with positive preliminary results of a few drugs also added to hope and optimism," Shibani Sircar Kurian, Executive Vice President, Fund Manager &amp; Head- Equity Research,Kotak Mahindra Asset Management Company said. <div type="image" title="fii dii data" msid="75466705" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Foreign investors in Indian share market remain net sellers for the fourth straight month. &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> So, what does the road ahead look like? “The Fear Of Missing Out will drive many investors – including myself – off the sidelines," said Nigel Green, founder and chief executive of deVere Group, a global financial advisory firm. “Investor exuberance is contagious. As the markets move steadily higher - unfazed by the recent poor economic data from the peak of the pandemic – it can be expected that the uptick will further sharpen due to that powerful investor sentiment: FOMO," he added. If FOMO drives some of the global investors back to India, the rally may spillover into May. However, investors must also remember that the month of May is usually one where stocks underperform, leading to the widely-known adage "<a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/sell-in-may-and-go-away.asp" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">sell in may and go away</a>."

India's blue-chip indices see a dizzying rally this week⁠— these are the top ten gainers and what pumped them up

Indian pharma major <keyword id="46384" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="glenmark" source="Orion">Glenmark</keyword> Pharmaceuticals Limited and Canadian pharmaceutical company SaNOtize Research &amp; Development Corp, on Wednesday announced launch of nasal spray to treat adult Covid-19 patients. According to Glenmark, the nitric oxide nasal spray (NONS) will be sold under the brand FabiSpray in India for the treatment of adult patients with Covid-19 who have high risk of progression of the disease. Glenmark earlier received manufacturing and marketing approval from the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) for NONS as part of the accelerated approval process. The nasal spray is designed to kill the coronavirus in the upper airways and when it is sprayed over nasal mucosa, it (nasal spray) acts as a physical and chemical barrier against the virus, preventing it (virus) from incubating and spreading to the lungs. In July 2021, Glenmark entered into an exclusive long term strategic partnership with Canadian biotech firm SaNOtize, to manufacture, market and distribute its breakthrough NONS for Covid-19 treatment in India and other Asian markets including Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Nepal, Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Timor-Leste and Vietnam.
