Amid high trading volumes, the BSE stock rallied 11% in 2 trading sessions, hitting its new all-time high of Rs 2,670 on the NSE today. On Friday alone, the stock witnessed a rally of 8.3%.Around 1 pm today, 119.72 lakh shares of the company were traded on the NSE, with a total traded value of Rs 3,120.80 crore. BSE's total market capitalisation at the time stood at Rs 1.07 lakh crore.The surge in the stock also follows a recent circular released by the markets regulator, Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi), which asked the exchanges to choose expiry days for equity derivatives - either Tuesday or Thursday.After reviewing inputs from a discussion paper released in March 2025, Sebi's Secondary Market Advisory Committee (SMAC) held deliberations and proposed restricting expiry days to help curb excessive market activity.Stock exchanges will now need to standardise the final settlement day for equity derivatives contracts—including index options, index futures, and single stock futures and options—by choosing either Tuesday or Thursday as the designated expiry day.This precedes NSE's decision to shift the F&O expiry day for Nifty, Bank Nifty, FinNifty, Nifty Next50, and Nifty Midcap Select from the current Thursday to Monday.With NSE's derivatives contract expiry, which would have been scheduled ahead of BSE's Tuesday expiry for Sensex and Bankex, was expected to weigh on BSE's market share, which could have declined as competition intensifies, according to a previous report by Nuvama Institutional Equities This is due to the fact that retail traders tend to be more active closer to expiry when option values compress.(Disclaimer: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.

Gold falls to one-month low as trade optimism spurs risk appetite
Gold prices declined to a one-month low. This happened because of reduced trade tensions between the United States and China. Synopsis Gold prices experienced a decline, reaching a more than one-month low due to easing U.S.-China trade tensions, which diminished safe-haven demand and encouraged investors to shift towards riskier assets. Adding to the market dynamics, President Trump's trade actions with Canada and comments on Federal Reserve interest rates influenced investor sentiment. Gold prices fell to their lowest in more than a month on Monday as easing trade tensions between U.S. and China dampened safe-haven demand and prompted investors to pivot toward riskier assets. ADVERTISEMENT * Spot gold was down 0.3% at $3,264.64 per ounce, as of 0055 GMT, after hitting its lowest level since May 29. * U.S. gold futures fell 0.4% to $3,275.30. * Asian shares firmed on Monday, while the benchmark 10-year Treasury yields edged higher. * The United States and China have resolved issues surrounding shipments of rare earth minerals and magnets to the U.S., Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Friday, adding the Trump administration's various trade deals with other countries could be done by the Sept. 1 Labor Day holiday. * Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump abruptly cut off trade talks with Canada on Friday over its tax targeting U.S. technology firms, saying that it was a "blatant attack" and that he would set a new tariff rate on Canadian goods within the next week. * The ceasefire between Iran and Israel after a 12-day conflict also appeared to be holding, further reducing safe-haven demand. ADVERTISEMENT * Stable geopolitical and economic conditions often reduce demand for gold as a safe-haven asset, while non-yielding bullion's appeal further wanes in a high-interest-rate environment. * Trump said on Friday he would not appoint anyone to head the U.S. Federal Reserve who would not lower interest rates. ADVERTISEMENT * Elsewhere, Senate Republicans pushed forward President Trump's sweeping tax cut and spending bill on Sunday in a marathon weekend session even as a nonpartisan forecaster said it would add an estimated $3.3 trillion to the nation's debt over a decade. * Spot silver was down 0.4% at $35.84 per ounce, platinum firmed 0.4% to $1,344.63, while palladium fell 0.6% to $1,127.23.

Not just ‘Make in India', we call for ‘Invent in Telangana': Sridhar Babu
Hyderabad: 'Ourvision goes beyond 'Make in India'. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, the people's government of Telangana is focused on 'Invent in Telangana'—a bold mission that reflects our commitment to innovation-driven growth,' said Minister for IT and Industries, Duddilla Sridhar Babu. Addressing the valedictory session of the Industrial Innovation and Technology Expo (IITEX) 2025, organised by the Federation of Telangana Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FTCCI) at HITEX on Sunday, the Minister highlighted Telangana's focused efforts to transform into a global innovation hub. 'In the first quarter of the current financial year, Telangana's Index of Industrial Production (IIP) recorded a Compound Monthly Growth Rate (CMGR) of 2.9%, far surpassing the national average of just 0.52%. The state's Gross State Value Added (GSVA) from industry touched Rs 2.77 lakh crore in 2024–25. We also witnessed growth of 15.6% in power consumption, 9.8% in GST collections, and 13.9% in payroll enrollments—all of which point to robust industrial momentum.' 'Contrary to misinformation that industries are moving out of Telangana, the truth is the opposite: In just the last 18 months, we have attracted over Rs 3 lakh crore in investments, including Rs 40,000 crore in the Life Sciences sector alone. We have launched 150 new projects, creating employment for over 51,000 people directly and 1.5 lakh people indirectly,' the Minister said. To decentralize and balance industrial growth, Telangana is developing Future City, AI City, Life Sciences City, and Green Industrial Corridors, all adhering to international standards. Special zoning strategies are also underway: Inside the Outer Ring Road (ORR): Focus on technology and services zones; Between ORR and the Regional Ring Road (RRR): Manufacturing zones; Beyond RRR: Agricultural and Rural Innovation zones. 'These steps are part of a well-planned ecosystem designed for sustained economic expansion,' he added. Minister Sridhar Babu emphasized the government's focused efforts to strengthen Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), which form the backbone of India's economy. 'In the past 18 months alone, over 15,000 new MSMEs have been established in Telangana. Our goal is to increase MSMEs' contribution to Telangana's GSDP to 10%,' he said. To achieve this, a dedicated MSME policy has been formulated and is being actively implemented. The government is also developing MSME parks in every district, with priority support for women, SC, and ST entrepreneurs.

READ MORE 7:06 AM Stock Market LIVE Updates: Growth to remain muted for IT services firms in Q1 amid macro uncertainty Stock Market LIVE Updates: Indian information technology (IT) service providers are expected to deliver low single-digit sequential growth in the first quarter (April-June) of 2025-26 (FY26), even as macroeconomic uncertainties continue to persist due to the volatile geopolitical environment. While the road ahead appears far from rosy, IT companies – which depend on the US for a large part of their revenue – point to no material deterioration in the spending environment. The quarter ended June 30 looks slightly better than what was feared earlier. 'This quarter will not be as bad as March but not as good as January either. While there has not been a sharp cut in spending, growth in this environment is difficult to come by as clients are still cautious on spending. For largecap players, our growth estimate is at sub-2 per cent while at the bottom end it is about a negative 1.5 per cent, at worst, sequentially,' said a senior analyst at an international research firm.

The sectors were chosen based on either patent activity being twice the median or research and development (R&D) investment outpacing the national average by a factor of two. READ MORE
