D-Street snaps 4-day rally on profit booking

Mumbai: India's broadest equity gauges Monday snapped a four-day winning streak to retreat from within 3% of life-time peaks, as investors looked beyond positive global cues and renewed foreign fund inflows to book profits in the absence of an express local trigger. The BSE Sensex fell 452.4 points, or 0.54%, to close at 83,606, while the NSE Nifty-50 shed 120.7 points, or 0.47%, to end at 25,517. The two indices had risen 2.7% over the past four sessions and posted gains of 3.1% and 2.7%, respectively, in June, marking their fourth straight month of advances. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Al Kadhimiya: Unsold Furniture Liquidation 2024 (Prices May Surprise You) Unsold Furniture | Search Ads Learn More Undo Profit-booking and weakness in select sectors weighed on sentiment, even though markets had rallied sharply last week on the back of robust global signals and domestic institutional buying.

"Last week, markets surged sharply driven by robust global signals and buying from domestic institutions, but profit-booking emerged, dragging down the benchmark indices," said Prashanth Tapse, senior VP (research), Mehta Equities. The broader market outperformed, with the Nifty Midcap 150 rising 0.6% and the Nifty Smallcap 250 gaining 0.8%. On BSE, out of 4,290 stocks traded, 2,362 advanced while 1,750 declined.

Among sectors, auto and financial stocks dragged the benchmarks lower. The Nifty Auto index slipped 0.5%, while Nifty Financial Services fell 0.3%. Meanwhile, Nifty PSU banks, consumer durables and pharma were the top gainers. Within the stocks, top gainers on the Nifty included Trent, BEL, SBI, IndusInd Bank and Jio Financial Services. Tata Consumer Products and Kotak Mahindra Bank were among the major laggards. Tapse noted that trade negotiations with the US will remain a key focus in the near term. "The focus will be on tariff settlement with the US government, as the deadline is approaching and India has yet to conclude the agreement, which could create uncertainty among the investors." Shrikant Chouhan, head of equity research at Kotak Securities, believes that 25,470/83,500 will act as a key level to watch. Below 25,470/83,500, the markets could see a further correction toward 25,375-25,300/83,200-83,000. "On the flip side, a sustained move above 25,470/83,500 could push the market up to 25,600/83,900. Further upside may also continue, potentially lifting the market to 25,700/84,200." Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) net sold shares worth ₹831.5 crore on Monday, BSE data showed. However, for the whole month of June, their total investment came to ₹7,489 crore. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) bought shares worth ₹3,497 crore on Monday, taking their total investment for June to ₹72,676 crore.

Why 125+ CFOs have resigned in Q1. Hint: it's personal

Mumbai: More than 125 chief financial officers (CFOs) have exited listed companies in the first three months of FY26 — a sharp 25% jump from a year earlier — as per disclosures made to the BSE. Some of them walked out overnight, citing a cryptic phrase, 'personal reasons'. The sudden resignation last Monday of Mastek Ltd's CFO Raghavendra Jha, barely a month into the job, is the latest in a string of such departures. In a one-line email addressed to the company's chief executive, Jha said he was putting in his papers due to personal reasons, without providing any other detail. Such exits have cast doubts about corporate governance and regulatory compliance. When a listed company's key managerial personnel, including CFOs, resign, they are required to provide a detailed reason for their departure, as per the listing obligations and disclosure requirements of market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi). Experts said the KMPs are merely ticking the box in terms of complying with this requirement by citing vague reasons when resigning. 'The abrupt resignation of key managerial personnel, especially CFOs, often signals deeper issues within a company," said V. Balakrishnan, a former CFO at IT services major Infosys Ltd and founder of Exfinity Ventures, a venture capital fund. 'While regulators require disclosure of resignation reasons, the frequent use of vague terms like 'personal reasons' has become a convenient cover." Balakrishnan pointed out that in several instances, irregularities at companies have surfaced shortly after such exits. For example, Ankit Jain, the former CFO of Gensol Engineering, resigned in early March citing personal reasons and pursuit of other professional avenues as the reason for his departure. A month later, Sebi released its interim order against the company and its promoters, disclosing severe lapses in governance and diversion of funds. Similarly, IndusInd Bank's former CFO Gobind Jain's resignation this January was followed in March by the bank disclosing that it had financial discrepancies of over ₹2,000 crore in its derivatives portfolio. Jain had cited personal travel to the US and pursuit of other career opportunities as the reason for his exit. 'This raises serious concerns and strengthens the case for Sebi to broaden the disclosure mandate," said Balakrishnan. 'The onus must be on the board to reconcile these stated reasons with any financial lapses discovered later, and to be held accountable for any oversight or complicity." Currently, Ankit Jain is the CFO of SB-Constantia Flexibles, a joint venture between Constantia, an Austrian firm, and SB Packagings, a Delhi-based packaging firm. To be sure, in most cases when executives resign citing personal reasons, they end up joining a different firm. The pursuit of another career is the second most-cited reason for exits. However, experts say that the ambiguity created by this term allows even cases where there are serious issues at the firm to pass under the radar. Shriram Subramanian, a corporate governance expert and managing director of proxy advisory firm InGovern, said boards need to be cognizant that they are working in the interest of shareholders. 'If there is any other reason for the resignation like fraud or disciplinary action, they should disclose as much to the exchanges instead of letting it slide as 'personal reason'," he said. Meanwhile, Mumbai-headquartered IT services company Mastek, which ended FY25 with $408.4 million in revenue and is valued at $890 million, said there were no governance concerns behind CFO Jha's resignation in just over a month of joining. Jha did not respond toMint's messages requesting comment. 'We are not happy with having two CFOs in the last six months; it creates a wrong impression," said Ashank Desai, the company's chairman. Last December, Arun Agarwal had resigned as CFO after serving in the role for just over four years. 'Mastek stands for the highest corporate governance. I can vouch for it," said Desai, who co-founded the company in 1982.

Trichy corpn fixes rent for Panjapur truck terminal shops

Trichy: In its monthly meeting on Monday, the Trichy Corporation passed a resolution setting rent and deposit rates for shops at the Panjapur truck terminal, located on the Trichy-Madurai National Highway near the Integrated Bus Terminus (IBT). The local body has requested support from the Trichy city police to enforce the diversion of trucks and heavy vehicles currently parked on city highways and service roads to the new terminal. The council was informed that the terminal has 51 shops on the ground floor and 28 shops-cum-office spaces on the first floor. Rent has been fixed at Rs 132 per square foot, following government guidelines, while deposits range from Rs 4 lakh to Rs 10 lakh, depending on shop size (250 to 1,001 sq ft). The shops and amenities, including dormitories and sanitary complexes, will be leased out through a tender process. CPI councillor K Suresh emphasized the importance of police cooperation, stating, "If trucks parked on city roads are not regulated and diverted to the terminal, the project will fail."
