Kotak Mahindra Bank Shares Decline Over 2 Per Cent;…

New Delhi: Shares of Kotak Mahindra Bank on Tuesday declined over 2 per cent, wiping out Rs 7,777.33 crore from its market capitalisation as the company’s name cropped up in the Adani-Hindenburg row.

The stock went lower by 2.16 per cent to settle at Rs 1,769.60 apiece on the BSE. During the day, it tumbled 3.98 per cent to Rs 1,736.65. On the NSE, it declined 2.12 per cent to Rs 1,769.60 per share. The company’s market valuation eroded by Rs 7,777.33 crore to Rs 3,51,787.86 crore.

Billionaire banker Uday Kotak founded a bank and brokerage that created and oversaw an offshore fund used by an unnamed investor to profit from a plunge in Adani shares that followed a damning Hindenburg report, the US short-seller said.

Hindenburg Research, which had in a January 2023 report alleged stock market manipulations and accounting fraud at the Adani group, said it has received a show cause notice from Indian markets regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) over gains made from betting on the conglomerate’s shares.

The US short-seller said it had disclosed that it had bets against the group, adding that its gains were only over USD 4 million. While Kotak Mahindra Investments Ltd (KMIL) – the asset management company is said to have created the offshore fund — stated that Hindenburg was “never” its client, Sebi’s show cause notice cited chats between Kingdon Capital — a client of the US short-seller who was privy to the report before its release — and Kotak fund executives.

Calling the Sebi show cause notice as attempted intimidation, Hindenburg asked why the market regulator did not name Kotak. Sebi’s notice “conspicuously failed to name the party that has an actual tie to India: Kotak Bank, one of India’s largest banks and brokerage firms founded by Uday Kotak, which created and oversaw the offshore fund structure used by our investor partner to bet against Adani,” Hindenburg said.

Meanwhile, other bank stocks also declined on Tuesday, with Bank of Baroda slumping 2.65 per cent, IndusInd Bank (1.89 per cent), State Bank of India (1.87 per cent), ICICI Bank (1.79 per cent), Canara Bank (1.69 per cent), Federal Bank (1.55 per cent) and Axis Bank (0.63 per cent). The BSE Bankex index ended lower by 0.91 per cent at 59,307.59.

Ambuja Cements Shares: Check What Global Brokerage Firms Are…

14 June 2024

Mumbai: Leading global brokerage firms have gone bullish on the Adani Group’s Ambuja Cements after it announced to acquire Hyderabad-based Penna Cement for Rs 10,442 crore.

Jefferies has a ‘buy’ rating on the Ambuja Cements shares, giving it a target price of Rs 735 per share.

The stock of Ambuja Cements went up more than 2 per cent at Rs 679 in the morning trade on Friday.

According to Jefferies, the landmark acquisition of Penna Cement would boost the positioning of the Adani Group’s cement and building material major as a pan-India leader.

Morgan Stanley said the acquisition would support volume growth for Ambuja Cements over the medium term.

Macquarie expects that with the acquisition, the capacity share of Ambuja Cements in South India is likely to improve to 10-11 per cent from the current 4-5 per cent.

According to Macquarie analysts, a key factor to see is whether this acquisition will help Ambuja Cements reach its capacity target of 140 million tonnes by FY28.

Global brokerage Nuvama also retained a ‘buy’ rating on the company’s stock with a target price of Rs 767 on FY26E EV/EBITDA of 18 times.

The acquisition, to be funded by internal accruals, will improve Adani Cement’s market share pan-India by 2 per cent and by 8 per cent in south India.

PCIL has 14 MTPA cement capacity, of which 10 MTPA is operational, and the remaining is under construction at Krishnapatnam (2 MTPA) and Jodhpur (2 MTPA) and will be completed within 6 to 12 months.

Ambuja Cements reported profit after tax (PAT) at Rs 4,738 crore for FY24 — up by a record-setting 119 per cent (year-on-year) — and operating EBITDA at Rs 6,400 crore, up by 73 per cent.

Bloodbath in India Stocks As Trends Show Below Par…

4 June 2024
by admin

New Delhi: Indian stock indices witnessed a bloodbath on the day the Lok Sabha results were announced, where incumbent BJP performed below par and seems it may fall short of exit poll predictions and the majority mark on its own.

The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance is leading in nearly 300 seats while the INDIA alliance is leading in 229 seats, as per data from the Election Commission of India. The idea of a coalition government lead by BJP at the centre has led to widespread market anxiety and a sharp decline in stock indices.

The BJP, which has been the dominant force in Indian politics for the past decade, is seen as a pro-Industry party whose policies have generally favoured economic growth and market stability. The failure to secure a clear majority to BJP of its own raises concerns about the formation of a stable government and the continuation of economic reforms.

At the closing bell, Sensex closed at 72,079.05 points, down 4,389.73 points or 5.74 per cent, while Nifty closed at 21,884.50 points, down 1,379.40 points or 5.93 per cent. All Nifty sectoral indices, barring Nifty FMCG, were deep in the red today. Nifty metal, Nifty bank, Nifty financial services, Nifty PSU bank, Nifty private bank, Nifty realty, Nifty oil and gas, slumped the most, NSE data showed.

“The steep fall is due to the results so far falling short of the exit polls which the market had discounted yesterday. If BJP doesn’t get a majority on its own there will be disappointment and this is getting reflected in the market. Also it is possible that Modi 3.O may not be as reform-oriented as the market expected and may turn more welfare- oriented,” said V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services.

At one point during the afternoon, Indian equity indices plummeted over 8 per cent on Tuesday, as poll trends indicated a closer than anticipated fight for the incumbent Narendra Modi-led NDA government.

Sensex logged it worst session in over four years, it witnessed back during Covid days.

“Markets rallied 3-3.5 per cent on expectation of a Modi led NDA win on Monday. PSU (especially banks) led the rally. Today polls were not in line with exit poll outcome. Markets move more than 4-5 per cent down today,” said Jaykrishna Gandhi, Head – Business Development, Institutional Equities, Emkay Global Financial Services.

“We expect 7-10 per cent downside for broader markets from current levels. We recommend positioning to move from alpha stocks to defensives – add FMCG, IT, Pharma vs short on ABB, Siemens, Cummins, Coal India, NTPC, PFC, REC, PNB, Canara bank,” Gandhi suggested.

The Rupee closed weaker against the US dollar on Tuesday, depreciating by 38 paise to close at 83.53. It closed at 83.15 on Monday. The Rupee had been largely steady for the past year, largely due to RBI’s intervention.

“This uncertainty triggered a panic sell-off across various asset classes, impacting economic growth. The Dollar-Rupee exchange rate may continue to rise, potentially reaching 83.90, with 83.40 serving as the immediate support level,” said Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst – Commodity and Currency, LKP Securities.

Manish Chowdhury, Head of Research, StoxBox, asserted that markets have reacted sharply to the initial trends of the NDA leading on around 290 seats, way less than as projected. “With the NDA still looking to form a government, though with the important support of coalition partners, markets look jittery about the prospects of strong decision making.

Markets believe that the reformistic approach, which was a hallmark of the previous two terms, might take a backseat in the third term. However, our sense is that it is still early to jump to conclusions and should ideally wait for a clearer picture,” said Chowdhury. Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities, noted that the current market texture is extremely volatile and uncertain; hence, it is advisable that traders should remain cautious for the next few trading sessions.

On Monday, Indian benchmark indices closed at record highs, driven by fresh buying from investors after exit polls indicated a comfortable majority for the NDA government. The Nifty 50 index gained 733.20 points, closing at 23,263.90, while the BSE Sensex surged 2507.47 points to close at 76,468.78.

New Delhi: The stock market will be closed on Monday due to the Lok Sabha elections in Mumbai. Trading will resume as usual on Tuesday. After this, the next holiday is scheduled for June 17 in observance of Bakrid. The stock exchanges on Saturday organised a special trading session. Investors were enthusiastic, and the market ended on a positive note.

On Monday, six seats in Mumbai will go to the polls: Mumbai North, Mumbai North West, Mumbai North East, Mumbai North Central, Mumbai South, and Mumbai South Central.

The Dalal Street, after the period of uncertainty about the election outcome, is now bullish as the market experts believe the positive trend will continue.

After the much-discussed India VIX, also known as the Fear Gauge, appears to have vanished recently, the Indian stock market appears to be positive. The benchmark stock indices have increased significantly over the last several sessions, including the special trading session on Saturday, which has resulted in investors earning healthy returns on their investments.

Analysts now predict that the upward trend in the key Indian stock market indexes will last through this following week, beginning on Tuesday. “The broader market remained positive, driven by persistent buying in heavyweight sectoral stocks. Furthermore, a moderation in India’s CPI and lower-than-expected inflation figures from the US Fed have stimulated investor confidence,” said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services.

Brokerage Prabhudas Lilladher in its latest report, ‘India Strategy Report – Mandate 2024, Brace of Volatility’ said it expects a continuation of the policy if the BJP-led NDA comes back to power and themes around infrastructure, defense, capital goods (CG), new energy, and tourism will continue to do well.

Maharashtra has 48 Lok Sabha seats, the second largest after Uttar Pradesh. Voting for the first four phases has concluded and for the fifth phase of the Lok Sabha polls, polling is set to be held on May 20. The 2024 Lok Sabha elections are being held in seven phases running from April 19 to June 1. The counting and results will be declared on June 4. (With ANI Inputs)
