SUMMARY

Despite the lacklustre performance by the benchmark indices, a few stocks continued to get strong momentum. Anand Rathi Wealth, Nava, Laurus Labs and others rallied over 40%. The rally in these stocks is primarily driven by strong buying by mutual fund houses, financial institutions and overall robust fundamental growth in companies.

Anand Rathi wealth, Laurus Labs among others rally over 40% in three months.

Indian equity benchmarks made a slightly positive start on Wednesday and soon slipped below neutral lines amid uncertainty over U.S. trade tariffs and rising oil prices due to supply concerns. U.S. President Donald Trump said that he is not looking at lowering tariffs on India, and there is an imbalanced trade relationship with New Delhi because of high Indian levies.

At this point of trade, Sensex and Nifty are trading flat with a negative bias as traders adopted a wait-and-watch approach ahead of the two-day Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council meeting, scheduled for September 3 and 4, 2025. The GST Council is likely to discuss the revisions to tax slabs. Also, investors are looking ahead to the release of India’s Services PMI data later in the day for more directional cues.

The SENSEX is currently trading at 80337.60, up by 153 points or 0.19% after trading in a range of 80004.60 and 80340.62. 15 stocks were advancing against 14 stocks declining, while 1 stock remained unchanged on the index.

The NIFTY50 is currently trading at 2456495, up by 65.65 points or 0.28% after trading in a range of 24533.20 and 24648.70. 21 stocks were advancing against 29 stocks declining on the index.

NIFTY50 and SENSEX trade at the same levels as June 2025, delivering zero returns over a period of three months. The lacklustre performance was driven by below expectations Q1FY26 earnings and consistent FII selling. However, a few continued to march ahead and delivered stellar returns during the same period.
