Bajaj Corp gained 1.4 per cent in morning trade on Tuesday before slipped into the red. The Reserve Bank of India has allowed overseas investors to buy up to 49 per cent in the company.

At 10.42 am, the stock was a tad down (-0.30 or -0.08%) at Rs 399.15.

The company's board in November approved stake limit increase for foreign investors to 49 per cent from 24 per cent. The RBI regularly prevents FIIs from buying shares in companies if they approach the limit stipulated by regulations and then re-adjusts once foreign ownership falls below the prescribed level.
