Summary:
India’s benchmark indices gained on Tuesday, following positive results from banks and the relaxing of rules on rupee derivative transactions by the Reserve Bank of India. Good quarterly results, along with rising optimism regarding possible negotiations for a peaceful settlement between the U.S. and Iran, further strengthened investor sentiments. The Nifty 50 gained 0.55% to 24,499.30, whereas the Sensex added 0.64% to 79,022.11 during early sessions, with all major sectors posting gains.
In this environment, a number of stocks from the Nifty 500 Index posted strong moves amid various factors.
One of the biggest gainers during the session was Lemon Tree Hotels Ltd., a prominent Indian hospitality group that concentrates on developing hotels of middle-tier and higher levels. The share price jumped sharply to the level of 13–15%. An unusually high volume of transactions was recorded for the company at the level of 6.3 crore shares, which is more than 11 times higher than the average monthly volume of transactions.
The jump in quotations took place against the backdrop of the company's news on concluding an agreement to build a new 90 room hotel in the town of Garudeshwar, Gujarat. It will be managed by its subsidiary — Carnation Hotels.
Shares of PNB Housing Finance Ltd., a retail and corporate housing finance company floated by Punjab National Bank, moved up almost 10% along with huge surge in volumes – nearly 15 times its monthly average volume.
The stock’s run was backed up fundamentally with Q4FY26 results. Profit after tax rose 19.2% to ₹656 crore. Assets Under Management grew to ₹87,347 crore, an increase of 15% compared to the corresponding period last year. The disbursements recorded a sharp increase of 36.5%. Growth in net interest income and improvement in asset quality were seen, with gross NPAs down at 0.93%.
Groww, an online investment firm that provides various products such as stockbroking, mutual funds, and financial services, saw its stock price increase by about 8% after reporting positive results in terms of earning and high volume trades in excess of 12.4 crore.
The firm posted very good performance for Q4 FY26, recording total income increase of 81% YOY to ₹1,535.5 crore. The firm's EBITDA saw a jump of 142%, while net profit surged more than two times, up 122% to ₹686.4 crore. The number of its user base also grew substantially to reach 2.16 crore, posting an increment of 25%.
Notably, the percentage share of equity derivative contribution towards total income increased to 54.6%, despite the recent stringent regulations implemented by SEBI.
One of the major stocks to underperform was Radico Khaitan Ltd, a well-known Indian alcohol manufacturing company known for their high-end alcoholic beverages range. This company was one of the largest losers with a fall in price of 4.29 percent despite the overall strength seen in the market.
The volumes were relatively decent, along with a drop in price to ₹143.30. No specific reason behind the fall could be pointed out except for profits booking in view of an excellent performance in the last thirty days, which saw an increase of 20.16 percent in its prices.
The SBI Life Insurance Company Limited, being one of the biggest private life insurance providers in India, fell by 4.28% with high trade volumes surpassing 31 lakh shares.
