Post Market of Indian Stock Market – 29th August, 2025.

The Indian stock market ended lower today. Sensex slipped 270 points to close at 79,809.65. 🔻 Reason? Worries over possible US tariffs on Indian exports, which made foreign investors cautious. Out of 16 sectoral indices, 12 closed in red, showing broad weakness. But consumer-focused stocks managed small gains, supported by hopes of GST Council measures. Top Gainers: ✅ • RBL Bank (+4.07%) – Jumped after Societe Generale bought 32.8 lakh shares, showing big institutional confidence. • Thejo Engineering (+1.01%) – Rose on plans for capacity expansion and tech upgrades. • ITC (+2.21%) – Gained on strong domestic demand, stable FMCG outlook, and dividend support. • Shriram Finance (+1.50%) – Higher credit demand and optimism for NBFCs lifted the stock. • L&T (+1.15%) – Supported by optimism in infra and capital goods projects. Top Losers: 🔻 • Shanthala FMCG (-3.87%) – Thin liquidity and volatility dragged the stock lower. • GSS Infotech (-12.62%) – Fell after reporting losses; weak IT sentiment added pressure. • KCK Industries (-9.15%) – Low investor interest and technical weakness caused sharp fall. • Adani Enterprises (-1.34%) – Profit booking and ongoing Adani group weakness continued. • Apollo Hospitals (-1.53%) – Declined on profit booking after gains; AGM day volatility. In Short: While FIIs stayed cautious, DIIs and select sectors (like FMCG, finance, infra) showed resilience. Market sentiment remains sensitive to global trade news, but domestic strength is keeping some stocks afloat.
