Indian benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty, opened flat with a negative bias on Tuesday. At 9:17 am, the 30-share BSE Sensex dropped 15.56 points to 82,544.28, while the NSE Nifty fell 1.60 points to 25,277.10. 

Analysts expect the consolidation phase to continue for benchmarks, though the broader markets will witness some correction. According to them, the lack of domestic cues will keep market participation low. 

At the start of September, Nifty has shown a strong bullish trend with 13 consecutive higher closes, forming higher highs and higher lows. However, technical indicators like RSI at 70 and Stochastic RSI at 100 suggest the market is in the overbought zone, indicating a potential for a small correction or profit booking from its all-time highs, said Mandar Bhojane, Technical analyst, Choice Broking. 

Open Interest (OI) data shows the highest OI on the call side at the 25,500 and 25,700 strike prices and on the put side at the 25,000 strike price. This data, coupled with the overbought conditions, hints at a possible correction in the September series. Investors and traders can hold their positions and trail their stop loss (SL) for potential upside movement, he further said.

According to Osho Krishan, Senior Analyst - Technical & Derivatives, Angel One Ltd, the gravity-defying winning streak of the bulls looks enticing, but the trading range and market breadth certainly showcase exhaustion. Additionally, the technical parameters are very much compliant with over-bought parameters, and hence, a cautious stance with regular profit booking is advisable at the current juncture, he said. “Going forward, it is advisable to take a pragmatic approach and refrain from getting carried away by the Nifty’s winning streak. Maintaining exclusivity while stock selection and staying light on positions is recommended. Furthermore, closely monitoring the global markets, which have significantly impacted our market’s initial tone, is essential,” he added.

Meanwhile, most Asian stocks are up in early deals on Tuesday.

SEBI Chief Madhabi Puri Buch said on Monday that there would soon be a mechanism to automatically populate a single filing made by companies onto other exchanges. “If you file disclosure with one exchange, it will automatically go on all exchanges.

We recently met Kamesh Goyal (Founder and Chairman), Jasleen Kohli (CEO), and Ravi Khetan (CFO) of Go Digit for an update on the company’s strategy and recent developments in the general insurance sector.

KTAs: Profitable growth remains central to the company’s strategy; the company has adopted an agile and opportunity-based approach to growth, focusing on the not-so-overly competitive segments; it maintains a channel-agnostic stance, with clear aim of not becoming too contingent on, or to have excessive concentration in, any single distributor; and technology and Data Analytics continue to be the key differentiators and enablers of the execution of its agile and opportunity-based strategy, which includes acceleration or deceleration in any product or channel.

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has been consistently delivering resilient performance for past several quarters despite the challenging environment.

TCS has reported a solid performance in Q1, with sequential growth returning in some of the lagging verticals, especially BFSI.

EBIT margin has also seen a steady uptick on a y-o-y basis since the last few quarters.

“Instead of going straight to an IPO, a better route might be to approach an angel fund or a venture fund first,” said Bhatia, speaking at the CII’s Financing 3.0 Summit.

“Nobody is actually saying no. I am a banker, and we were taught to say no when necessary,” Bhatia added.

Individual investors sold over 50 per cent of shares allotted to them by value within a week of listing, and 70 per cent of shares by value within a year, a regulatory study has found. This has buttressed the fact that investors in initial public offerings (IPOs) are a fickle lot who come in mostly to make quick gains.
