Top gainers & losers, Aug 13: Hindalco falls 3%, ICICI Bank down 2%, Tata Consumer Products rises 3%; check list

The Indian benchmark indices, SENSEX and NIFTY50, closed mixed on Thursday, August 13. While the NIFTY50 ended in negative territory for the third consecutive session, the SENSEX closed in the green zone.

The trading session saw heightened volatility due to the weekly expiry of SENSEX futures and options.

Furthermore, Asian markets ended mixed as United States retail inflation data came in line with expectations and dampened hopes of a rate hike by the Federal Reserve going ahead.

On August 13, the SENSEX advanced by 113.61 points or 0.15% to close at 78,079.96. Meanwhile, the NIFTY50 closed lower by 40.10 points or 0.16% at 24,395.85.

It reported a 47.97% year-on-year (YoY) growth in its consolidated net profit to ₹120 crore during the quarter under review, compared to ₹81.1 crore in the April-June quarter of the 2025-26 fiscal year (Q1 FY26), according to a regulatory filing dated August 12.

SBI Cards and Payment Services is among the three companies that will be removed from the MSCI index in the upcoming period, effective after the market close of August 31, 2026, and from September 1, 2026.
