Jul 12, 2024, 09:39 IST
Both indices, Nifty and Sensex opened the day in greens. While Nifty was trading at 24,423.30 points, up by 107 points, up by 0.44%. Sensex was trading at 80,164.68 points, up by 267 points, as of 9:30 am.
LTI Mindtree took a significant lead of over 2% in early morning trade. Tech Mahindra, Tata Steel, BPCL and Bajaj Finance were top gainers in early morning trade. On the other hand, Power Grid, HDFC Life, Apollo Hospitals, Dr. Reddy and HDFC bank were lagging. HCL Tech is scheduled to release its Q1FY25 results later during the day.
All broad market indices opened the day in green, except for India VIX which was down by 0.48%. Nifty bank, auto, financial services, FMCG, pharma, PSU banks, private bank, healthcare and realty opened the day in red. In early trade, Nifty IT and media took a significant lead of over 1%.
Mr. Aditya Gaggar Director of Progressive Shares notes that their view on the index remains the same, i.e. as long as the Index holds a level of 24,200 uptrend will remain intact and on the higher side, 24,460 will be a critical hurdle.
"From the energy sector, gas stocks picked up their momentum (Petronet). Sugar stocks from the FMCG sector are gradually strengthening their uptrend (Balrampur Chini and Dalmia Sugar). The direction of the IT sector depends upon how the market participant decodes the Q1FY25 earnings of giant TCS".
"From the media segment, we are bullish on SunTV. Considering a strong rally in the Pharma space, we can expect a round of profit booking in the short run but the overall uptrend will remain intact. PSE stocks regained their lost spot as many of them have given a strong breakout from different patterns and we have identified some of them namely Engineers India , GMDC, MRPL, and SJVN", he said.
IT giant TCS declared their Q1FY25 results. As Siddhesh Mehta, Research Analyst, SAMCO Securities highlighted, the company beat D-street estimates in terms of results. "The company reported a constant currency revenue growth of 4.4% in Q1FY25, up from 2.2% in Q4FY24. Despite the overall macroeconomic environment continuing to indicate uncertainty, with profits declining by 3.18% QoQ, all major markets displayed sequential growth. While revenue growth for India's largest IT services companies in Q1FY25 remains strong, profit and margin pressures persist", he continued. TCS opened the day in green, trading at Rs 4,018.8, up by 2.42%.
