Nifty Sept rejig: IndiGo, Max Health to replace Hero MotoCorp, IndusInd

Business Standard17 hours ago
India's largest airline operator, InterGlobe Aviation and hospital chain Max Healthcare are likely to enter the benchmark Nifty50 index in the September 2025 review, according to analysts at Nuvama Institutional Equities.
IndiGo has already seen "substantial" positive price action, reflecting market expectations, the brokerage said in a report on July 2. However, Max Healthcare appears "under-owned" on this theme and could see more buying interest, it said, expecting over $400 million in passive inflows.
The stock of the defence company Hindustan Aeronautics will be the only threat to Max Healthcare's inclusion in the key gauge, Nuvama said. "The only scenario where Max Health may miss inclusion is if HAL outperforms Max Health by 12 per cent immediately and sustains that outperformance through July-end." This, however, is a low probability, Nuvama said.
Meanwhile, Hero MotoCorp and IndusInd Bank will be the stocks that will see exclusion from the index, given their recent performance. While much of the negative sentiment appears to be priced in, Nuvama believes any further downside will be more pronounced around the adjustment period. "Until then, we don't expect significant pressure purely from expected passive flows."
The September Nifty 50 review is likely to be "action-packed," Nuvama said in the report. The cut-off period for the rejig ends in July, and the official announcement is expected in the latter half of August. The index adjustments will be effective September 29, 2025.
'Zero probability' for BSE inclusion
Analysts at Nuvama assigned a zero probability of the oldest bourse, BSE Ltd., being included in the Nifty 50 in the September 2025 review.
This assessment is based on a thorough review of the current index methodology, Nuvama said. "We believe there's almost no chance of BSE even making it to the Nifty Next 50 in September 2025 review."
Nifty March rejig
Shares of the food delivery platform Zomato and Mukesh Ambani-backed Jio Financial Services were added to the benchmark Nifty50, while Bharat Petroleum Corporation and Britannia Industries saw exclusion. The two stocks were expected to bring in a passive inflow of $910 million into the index.

Breakout stocks to buy or sell: Sumeet Bagadia recommends five shares to buy today — 4 July 2025

Breakout stocks buy or sell: Indian stock market benchmarks, the Sensex and Nifty 50, declined for the second straight session on Thursday, July 3, amid mixed global signals. The Sensex dropped 170 points, or 0.20%, to settle at 83,239.47, while the Nifty 50 closed 48 points, or 0.19%, lower at 25,405.30. In the broader market, the BSE Midcap index edged down 0.06%, whereas the Smallcap index defied the downward trend with a gain of 0.47%. Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking, believes that Indian stock market sentiment is cautious to positive as the Nifty 50 index is still above the crucial support of 25,300 to 25,250. Speaking on the outlook of Indian stock market, Bagadia said, ' The key benchmark index is facing hurdle at 25,550 to 25,600. On breaking above this hurdle in a closing basis, we can expect the 50-stock index to touch 26,000 soon. So, one should maintain stock-specific approach and look at those stocks that are looking strong on the technical chart. Looking at breakout stocks can be a good option." Sumeet Bagadia recommends five breakout stocks to buy today: Hubtown, Man Industries (India), OCCL, Kriti Industries (India), and Latent View Analytics. 1] Hubtown: Buy at ₹ 273.90, target ₹ 295, stop loss ₹ 264; 2] Man Industries (India): Buy at ₹ 439.50, target ₹ 475, stop loss ₹ 424; 3] OCCL: Buy at ₹ 126.7, target ₹ 137, stop loss ₹ 122; 4] Kriti Industries (India): Buy at ₹ 163, target ₹ 176, stop loss ₹ 157; 5] Latent View Analytics: Buy at ₹ 446.7, target ₹ 482, stop loss ₹ 430.

Stock Market LIVE: GIFT Nifty hints at strong start; Asia mixed; S&P, Nasdaq hit record highs

Sensex Today | Stock Market LIVE on Friday, July 4, 2025: At 6:35 AM, GIFT Nifty futures were trading 56 points higher at 25,564, indicating a strong start for the bourses. 7:06 AM Stock Market LIVE Updates: Brokerages remain cautious on Asian Paints despite recent rally in stock Stock Market LIVE Updates: Shares of the largest Indian paint company, Asian Paints, hit a two-month high of ₹2,464, up 2 per cent on the BSE in Thursday's intra-day trade amid heavy volumes. The stock price of the paint company has bounced back nearly 5 per cent from Wednesday's low, shrugging-off the probe by the Competition Commission of India (CCI). The stock, which has outperformed the Nifty50 over the past month, delivering 7.8 per cent returns compared to 3.5 per cent for the benchmark, ended the day a tad higher. The CCI has ordered its director general (DG) to investigate allegations of misuse of market dominance by market leader Asian Paints in the domestic market. 7:05 AM Stock Market LIVE Updates: It has been a volatile first half for crude oil prices as they dealt with geopolitical developments and US' tariff-related threats. Singapore-based Premasish Das, executive director for oil markets research and analysis at S&P Global Commodity Insights, tells Business Standard on the sidelines of their Commodity Market Insights Forum in New Delhi that the oil markets are expecting oversupply and weak demand in the second half of 2025. On being asked about how oil markets are approaching the July 9 deadline on tariffs, Das said, it is very uncertain. "Initially, the general thinking was that within 90 days of the pause, things would become clearer. But we weren't too optimistic. Getting multiple countries on board for deals in such a short span was always going to be difficult—and that's exactly what's playing out," he added. 7:02 AM Stock Market LIVE Updates: Cash turnover rises to 9-month high as equity market volumes climb Stock Market LIVE Updates: Equity cash segment turnover rose for a fourth straight month in June, while the trading volumes for the derivatives segment slipped for a second month. The rise in the cash market volumes were underpinned by a fourth straight monthly gain in the markets, which lifted the benchmark Sensex and Nifty to their highest levels in nine months. On the other hand, the regulatory tightening continued to weigh on futures and options (F&O) trading.

Announced in February, the so-called Chhoti SIP initiative is aimed at enhancing the financialisation of savings.

US slaps sanctions on Iran oil smuggling network fuelling Hezbollah and militants

The US Treasury Department on Thursday unveiled a fresh round of sanctions targeting a sophisticated oil smuggling operation and a Hezbollah-linked financial firm, intensifying efforts to choke off Iran's revenue streams that fuel "destabilising activities.""Treasury will continue to target Tehran's revenue sources and intensify economic pressure to disrupt the regime's access to the financial resources that fuel its destabilising activities," Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a statement announcing the the heart of the crackdown is a network allegedly controlled by Iraqi-British national Salim Ahmed Said, which has been buying and shipping billions of dollars' worth of Iranian oil disguised as Iraqi since at least 2020. The Treasury said the group operated a chain of companies that moved crude oil across borders, sidestepping international sanctions. A separate set of sanctions also targeted a financial institution tied to Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militant group designated as a terrorist organisation by the oil exports have been under severe restrictions due to Iran's nuclear ambitions and its support for proxy groups across the Middle to a 2023 Reuters investigation, a fuel-oil smuggling network flourishing in Iraq since 2022 generates at least $1 billion a year for Iran and its proxies — funds the US now seeks to sanctions came after the US carried out strikes on June 22 on three Iranian nuclear sites including its most deeply buried enrichment plant, Fordow. The Pentagon said on Wednesday the strikes had degraded Iran's nuclear program by up to two years, despite a far more cautious initial assessment that had leaked to the US and Iran are expected to hold indirect talks in Oslo next week to discuss Iran's nuclear programme — though tensions over oil smuggling, sanctions, and recent military actions could overshadow the dialogue.- EndsWith inputs from ReutersMust Watch
