Market aftermath: Impact on stocks
Adani Green jumps on block deal
Adani Green Energy Limited rose 2.8% after a block deal involving 2.1 crore shares worth about ₹3,200 crore. The stock touched a 52-week high of ₹1,544.8. Adani Green continues to expand capacity, targeting 50 GW by 2030, including 5 GW of pumped storage projects, while its EBITDA has grown at 25% CAGR over FY23-FY26.
Asian Paints and IndiGo gain on lower crude
Asian Paints rose 1.3%, while InterGlobe Aviation surged 3.8% as Brent crude fell below $93 per barrel. Lower crude prices eased fuel and input cost concerns, benefiting airlines, paint makers, and tyre manufacturers like Apollo Tyres, JK Tyre, and CEAT.
Banks rally on RBI forex swap facility
Bank of Baroda surged 5.5%, with Canara Bank up 4.5%, PNB 4%, and Union Bank of India 3.1%, as the RBI released operational details of its concessional forex swap facility. The Bank Nifty climbed over 2% to 55,300, led by PSU banks, while the Nifty Private Bank index gained 1.6%. Measures are expected to attract $50–70 billion in foreign inflows, supporting liquidity and the rupee.
Crude oil trends
Crude oil futures traded lower after Iran and Israel agreed to halt attacks:
- August Brent: $93.46 (-0.84%)
- July WTI: $90.19 (-1.22%)
- June MCX crude: ₹8,630 (-0.88%)
- July MCX crude: ₹8,499 (-0.78%)
The market responded to geopolitical calm and statements from US President Donald Trump urging an immediate ceasefire. Oil-sensitive sectors like airlines, paints, and tyres benefited from easing fuel concerns.
Conclusion
Indian markets ended higher on Tuesday thanks to late-session buying, PSU bank strength, and improving risk sentiment after West Asia tensions eased. Adani Green, Asian Paints, and IndiGo led sectoral gains, while IT and media underperformed. Crude oil stabilization and RBI measures supporting foreign inflows contributed to the positive market breadth, though investors remain watchful for geopolitical developments and policy updates.
