HDFC Bank: The board of HDFC Bank on Monday appointed former Finance Secretary Rajiv Kumar as its new chairman, who had been instrumental in revitalising public sector banking and the financial sector.

Kumar, who later served as the 25th Chief Election Commissioner of India, is also credited with setting a world record for overseeing the 2024 General Election, where the largest number of voters participated.

He would replace Atanu Chakraborty, who abruptly resigned citing ethical concerns in March.

Axis Bank, Bandhan Bank: Chief financial officers (CFOs) of private sector lenders Axis Bank and Bandhan Bank announced their resignations on Monday, in an unusual churn in the important finance function ahead of finalising the results for the first quarter.

Axis Bank, the third-largest private sector lender, said its CFO of six years, Puneet Sharma, has resigned to pursue the next phase of his professional journey.

Similarly, the microlender-turned-universal bank Bandhan Bank also announced that its CFO, Rajeev Mantri, has put in his papers.

The disclosures by the two banks come days after Bhavin Lakhpatwala, an HDFC Bank veteran, quit as the executive vice president at the largest private sector lender to join smaller rival RBL Bank as its CFO.

It is widely believed that Sharma is set to take over as the CFO of HDFC Bank after incumbent Srinivasan Vaidyanathan's term ends in October.

Axis Bank said Sharma will be relieved of his services on August 31 this year. Mantri is widely believed to take over Sharma's position as the CFO at Axis Bank.

SIS Limited: Security and facility management services provider SIS Limited on Monday announced a share buyback of up to ₹120 crore, which will be the company's fifth buyback programme since its stock market debut in 2017.

The board of the company has "approved, in principle", a proposal to undertake a share buyback of up to ₹120 crore, SIS said in a late evening regulatory filing.

This will be "at a maximum price of ₹478.50 per equity share, representing a 10% premium to the closing price on June 25, 2026," it added.

The company estimates that around 25 lakh shares could be bought back under the proposed programme, although the final number may vary depending on the buyback price and other factors.

The company said the proposed buyback, which is subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals, will take the total capital returned by the company to shareholders through dividends and buybacks to around Rs 720 crore since its listing in August 2017.

L&T, NCC, and others: Infrastructure stocks such as Larsen & Toubro (L&T), NCC, KEC International, Kalpataru Projects International, Power Grid Corporation of India, and REC, among others, are expected to be in the spotlight on Tuesday, June 30.
The focus comes after the Union Cabinet approved an additional investment commitment of ₹30,000 crore by the Centre towards new and upcoming funds of the National Investment and Infrastructure Fund (NIIF), marking a significant step to deepen India's investment in infrastructure and other nationally important sectors.

YES Bank: YES Bank shares will be on investors’ radar as the private sector lender on Monday, June 29, said its board of directors has approved fundraising of up to ₹16,000 crore.

In a regulatory filing, the bank said its board has approved a proposal to raise up to ₹7,500 crore through the issuance of equity securities via various permissible routes, subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals. The fundraise will be capped at a maximum equity dilution of 10%, including any potential conversion of convertible debt instruments.

Bajaj Auto: Bajaj Auto Ltd on Monday said its ₹5,632.8-crore share buyback will start from July 1, 2026.

The company is undertaking a buyback of up to 46.94 lakh fully paid-up equity shares of face value of ₹10 each at a price of ₹12,000 per share, payable in cash, for an aggregate amount of up to ₹5,632.8 crore, Bajaj Auto said in a regulatory filing.

The proposal was first passed by the company's board on May 6, 2026, and subsequently by shareholders by way of a special resolution through a postal ballot notice on May 14, 2026, the results of which were announced on June 18, 2026.

The opening date of the buyback will be July 1, 2026, and will close on July 7, 2026, the filing said.

On the rationale of the buyback, Bajaj Auto said the growth of its business, robust cash generation and strong balance sheet position allow it "to reward its shareholders from time to time, as in the current instance, while retaining sufficient capital for growth and investment opportunities".

EV stocks: Tata Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd (M&M), Hero MotoCorp Ltd, TVS Motor Company, Ather Energy, Ola Electric, among others, will be in focus as all electric cars with an ex-showroom price of ₹30 lakh or less registered in the national capital will be granted 100% exemption on road tax and registration fees, as the Delhi government approved a new EV policy on Monday.

Under the new policy, people buying e-two-wheelers will get a subsidy of ₹30,000 in the first year, ₹20,000 in the second year and ₹10,000 in the third year.

As part of the policy, only electric autorickshaws will be registered in Delhi from January 1, 2027, while registration of new petrol and CNG two-wheelers will be phased out, with only electric two-wheelers to be registered from April 1, 2028.
