Key indices slip to 2-mth low
Mumbai: Falling for the third straight session on Monday, benchmark Sensex tumbled by 572 points to close at nearly a two-month low due to heavy selling in Kotak Mahindra Bank, forex outflows and uncertainty related to the India-US trade deal. The 30-share BSE barometer tanked 572.07 points or 0.70 per cent to settle at 80,891.02, a level not seen since June 4. During the day, it slumped 686.65 points or 0.84 per cent to 80,776.44. The 50-share NSE Nifty declined 156.10 points or 0.63 per cent to close at a nearly two-month low of 24,680.90. As many as 35 Nifty shares declined, and 15 advanced. Analysts said disappointing quarterly results and continued selling by FIIs dragged stock markets down for the third session in a row. Nifty has tanked over 2 per cent or 539 points while Sensex retreated by 1,835 points or 2.2 per cent to trade at near two-month low levels. Among Sensex firms, Kotak Mahindra Bank tumbled the most by 7.31 per cent after the company reported a consolidated net profit of Rs 4,472 crore for the June quarter, and flagged stress on the retail commercial vehicle portfolio due to adverse macroeconomic conditions. The profit in the year-ago period was Rs 7,448 crore, but it had included gains of over Rs 3,000 crore on its stake sale in the general insurance arm, while the net profit for the March quarter stood at Rs 4,933 crore. Bajaj Finance dropped 3.64 per cent amid asset quality concerns, while Bharti Airtel fell by 2.35 per cent. Tata Consultancy Services dropped 1.76 per cent amid reports that the IT major has decided to lay off over 12,000 employees. Sources said that the IT Ministry is keeping a close watch on the entire situation and is in touch with the tech company over the matter. Titan, HCL Tech and State Bank of India were also among the laggards. However, Hindustan Unilever, Asian Paints, ICICI Bank, Power Grid, HDFC Bank and ITC were the gainers. 'Domestic market sentiment has remained cautious, weighed down by a disappointing set of Q1 earnings, delays in the India-US trade agreement, and continued FII outflows. In contrast, global markets remain broadly positive, supported by US-EU trade developments that are perceived as less concerning than anticipated. 'The upcoming monetary policy decisions from the Fed and BoJ, along with the trajectory of domestic quarterly earnings, are expected to play a pivotal role in shaping market direction in the near term,' Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said. The BSE smallcap gauge tumbled 1.31 per cent and midcap index fell by 0.73 per cent. Among BSE sectoral indices, realty tanked 4.11 per cent, followed by telecommunication (1.56 per cent), capital goods (1.49 per cent), BSE industrials (1.40 per cent), teck (1.21 per cent) and metal (1.06 per cent).

India Inc clocks moderate growth in Q1
Mumbai: The revenue of corporate Indian companies grew at a modest 4-6 per cent year-on-year (YoY) in the April-June quarter (Q1), according to a report on Monday. Five sectors -- pharmaceuticals, communication services, organised retail, aluminium, and airlines -- pushed the revenue of corporate India, Crisil Ratings said in its latest report. Pharmaceutical revenue growth is 9-11 per cent YoY, outpacing corporate India's growth over the past 10 quarters, due to robust export demand and a steady domestic market. Even as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) rose 4 per cent YoY, the EBITDA margin fell 0.10 per cent to 0.30 per cent, weighed down by IT services, automobile, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and pharmaceuticals. 'The early onset of monsoon and lingering geopolitical uncertainties impacted some sectors in the April-June period,' said Pushan Sharma, Director, Crisil Intelligence. 'Geopolitical uncertainties impacted the IT services sector, leading to flat YoY revenue growth due to project delays caused by tariff concerns,' he added. Looking forward, despite concerns of excessive inventory, high retail sales, increasing exports and product mix adjustments are expected to boost auto sector revenue by 4 per cent. Engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) companies are expected to see a 6 per cent growth due to a low base effect from general elections in Q1 FY 2025. Revenue from telecom services is expected to grow 12 per cent due to more expensive subscription plans, the report said. Airline income is projected to grow 15 per cent due to increased volume from reduced aircraft groundings and new aircraft additions. A pick-up in rural demand supported the FMCG sector's volume growth and drove revenue growth of 17 per cent on-year in the tractor sector. Moderating food inflation, a favourable monsoon and a good harvest season for rabi crops contributed to the rebound in rural demand. Telecom services margin likely surged 290-320 bps on-year due to lower operating expenses, the report added.
