We believe GPT Healthcare Ltd gives investors a favourable investment opportunity to invest in a regional focused prominent healthcare provider in Eastern India. We like the company's strategic focus on the regional eastern Indian healthcare market, operating in three cities with dense population, giving healthy growth in business and services. Their established presence and multiple healthcare delivery verticals position the company as a one-stop destination for patients' needs in respective micro markets. We also believe in the company's diverse range of healthcare services ensuring quality healthcare services across various specialties and which also caters to different economic segments that would enhance their competitiveness and market penetration.

Looking at the financials the revenue from operations saw a modest increase of 7% between FY2022 and FY2023, while its profit after tax witnessed a slight drop of 6.37% during the same period. On valuation front at the upper band of Rs 186, the issue is asking for a Market Cap of Rs 1,526 crore. Based on the annualized FY2024 earnings and fully diluted post-IPO paid-up capital, the company is asking a P/E of 32.5x which looks fully priced offer. Given its healthy regional presence in Eastern India and strategically situated hospitals offering a comprehensive array of medical specialties, GPT Healthcare is positioned to seize opportunities in underserved healthcare markets and strategically growing in the adjacent markets with asset-light business models like Ranchi.

Investors should also look at IPO offers which come with 100% OFS issue which is an area of concern for new investors. Hence, considering all parameters we recommend investors to “SUBSCRIBE” with risk in this IPO for long term perspective only while conservative investors can wait and watch the space post listing.

The BankNifty index experienced a volatile trading session during the weekly expiry and encountered resistance around the 47300 levels. Currently stuck in a broad range of 46500-47500, the index faces limitations on further upside until it surpasses the 47300 mark. The immediate support stands at 46800, and a breach below this level could intensify selling pressure, potentially pushing the index towards 46500.

Jatin Gedia – Technical Research Analyst at Sharekhan by BNP Paribas

The Nifty opened on a positive note and consolidated in a narrow range during the first half. Selling pressure emerged during the second half and Nifty closed in the red down ~142 points. On the daily charts the Nifty has formed an Engulfing Bear candle stick pattern which has bearish implications and until today’s high of 22249 is not taken out we can expect consolidation in the near term. On the downside, the Nifty has crucial support zone placed at 21974 – 21930 which coincides with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level (21974) and the gap area formed on the 16th February. We believe that the index is in the process of retracing the rise it has witnessed from 21530 to 22249.

Bank Nifty fell less compared to Nifty which was down ~75 points. The Bank Nifty faced resistance from the gap area formed on the 17th Jan in the range 47200 – 48000. We expect it to retrace the rise it has witnessed from 44630 – 47364. Crucial Fibonacci retracement levels are placed at 46720 – 46320.

Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst, LKP Securities

The Nifty has formed a bearish engulfing pattern on the daily chart, indicating a potential pause in the ongoing rally. The momentum indicator RSI is showing a bearish crossover, signaling weakness in the near term. Immediate support is positioned at 22,000; a decisive drop below this level could lead the index towards 21,700. On the upside, resistance is identified at 22,160.

In the first half, the rupee strengthened by 0.10rs, reaching a high of 82.86, up by 0.09rs at one point, mainly due to weakness in the dollar. However, in the second half, the rupee retreated to 82.95 as the dollar strengthened and Indian markets declined. US Fed's meeting minutes later in the evening are eyed by participants. The broad range for the rupee persists between 82.75 and 83.25.

Aditya Gaggar Director of Progressive Shares:

After registering a record level in yesterday's trade, round of correction was witnessed in the Indian equities, especially in the broader markets which dented the market sentiments as the Index kept compounding its losses in the 2nd half of trading session to settle at 22,055.05 with a loss of 141.90 points.

Among sectoral performance, Realty and PSU Banking were the top performers while Media and Energy were the major laggards. With a loss of 1.25% & 1.04%; Mid and Smallcaps underperformed the Benchmark Index.

At record levels, the Index has formed a bearish candlestick pattern known as Dark Cloud Cover with a probable divergence in RSI which suggests short-term weakness in the markets where the higher side is capped at 22,250 while the downside seems to be protected at 21,930.

Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services

The Indian market is facing stiff resistance at higher levels; the valuation of a broader index is at a significant premium, leading to an unfavourable risk reward, which influences investors to book profits.

Global markets treaded cautiously awaiting the US FED minutes, while Chinese markets were buoyed by policy interventions. Concerns lingered since investors were heavily betting on a US FED rate cut, which is put at risk by January's higher-than-expected inflation.

Sensex Today | Dollar steadies as traders await Fed minutes for rate clues

The dollar steadied on Wednesday as traders awaited minutes of the Federal Reserve's latest policy meeting for further clues on the central bank's rate outlook.

Data last week showed sticky U.S. inflation, prompting investors to push back bets the Fed would start cutting rates in March. Markets are now pricing in the first cut in June, compared with March at the start of the year.

Traders are now pricing in 94 basis points (bps) worth of easing by the Fed this year.

A slim majority of economists polled by Reuters expects the Fed to cut interest rates in June.

The minutes of the Fed's latest policy meeting due later in the day will provide further clarity on the outlook for U.S. rates.

The U.S. dollar index, measuring the currency against six peers, edged 0.1% higher to 104.17, after moving 0.25% lower on Tuesday on the back of a dip in global bond yields. [US/]

The euro also dropped 0.1% to $1.0795, ahead of an euro zone consumer confidence survey due later in the day.

Stock Market LIVE Updates | Sharekhan View on Aurobindo Pharma

Aurobindo has been witnessing stronger growth in the US, driven by gRevlimid-led injectable portfolio and improvement in the base business followed by strong traction in the emerging market portfolio. The company has seen an increase in EBITDA margins over the past six quarters, which indicates stability in the product mix.

In the recent inspection of its Subsidiary Unit-3, the company has voluntarily closed its lines to maintain compliance with USFDA regulations. This closure of lines is expected to cost Aurobindo USD20 million and US2-3 million remediation costs per month.

Sharekhan believe the shutdown of lines will Impact Aurobindo’s sales and there is no surety of the lines opening in early FY2025E. Hence, downgrade the stock to hold.

At the CMP, the stock is trading at ~18x/15x its FY2025E/FY2026E EPS due to the overhang of USFDA offsetting growth in the oral solids business in the US region. We would like to ascribe a P/E of 16x to arrive at a target price (TP) of Rs 1,133.

Jaykrishna Gandhi, Head - Business Development, Institutional Equities, Emkay Global Financial Services:

With Dec quarter earnings now behind us, Indian markets remained broadly stable this week with Nifty consistently inching up to 22,250 levels. PSU banks continue to rally. Kotak bank announces major rejig in top management, alleviating immediate risk of management attrition. We turn slightly cautions on retail heavy banks amid rising asset quality noise, but do not expect a complete blow out. Zee continued to make headlines with regulators finding a $240mn financial discrepancy in books.

Globally, US markets soften as investors turn cautious ahead of Nvidia earnings. All eyes now on FOMC minutes and further comments from Fed officials on when would Fed start cutting interest rates - to be released tomorrow.

FIIs continued to be net sellers in the market this week while domestic funds remain buyers. We see lot of NFOs being launched / closed by domestic AMCs over last few weeks. On technical, Nifty continues to close above previous resistance zone of 22,100-22,150. Hence, we continue to watch 22,500 as the next level.

Sensex Today | Anuj Choudhary Research Analyst, Sharekhan by BNP Paribas

Indian Rupee appreciated by 0.06% on Wednesday on weak US Dollar and a decline in crude oil prices. However, FII outflows and mixed to weak domestic markets capped sharp gains. US Dollar eased on consolidation ahead of US FOMC minutes.

We expect Rupee to trade with a slight positive bias on weak tone in US Dollar and extended decline in crude oil prices. However, risk aversion in global markets and renewed geopolitical tension in the Middle East and Red Sea may cap the upside. FII outflows may also weigh on Rupee at higher levels. Traders may watch out for FOMC minutes for further cues on interest rate outlook. USDINR spot price is expected to trade in a range of Rs 82.60 to Rs 83.20.

Sensex Today | Mohammed Imran – Research Analyst, Sharekhan by BNP Paribas

Crude oil prices plunge on Wednesday amid fear of demand deterioration from two of the leading energy consuming countries i.e. US and China. WTI April at $76.81 is down 0.3% during mid European session. Oil prices have been trading in range bound and some $6-$7 dollar of risk premiums embedded to it at current level, which may continue to hold prices higher in short run, but overall demand fundamentals are not favourable for rally to sustain.

The drop in consumer spending in US during December and January has somewhat dampened the investors sentiments over demand outlook. Overall crude oil market is expected to remain in surplus of above 1mbpd in Q1-2024, while China continued to struggle through its debt laden real estate market, affecting 1/5 of its GDP. We expect WTI April to trade sideways in absence of major economic data. Upside looks limited with resistance of $80.50 while downside could test the support of $74-$72. We advise trade to short the rallies.

BHEL reported topline growth, but posted a loss after tax due to higher cost of sales.

Broking house believe a pick-up in the industry segment, rising order inflow, strong pipeline, and rising government expenditure in favorable sectors are expected to drive the company’s performance in the long run. However, cost pressures, posting net loss for the third consecutive quarter and recent significant jump in the stock price indicate that the stock is trading at higher valuation.

Hence, downgrade rating to sell on the stock with a rolled forward target price of Rs 203, based on 68x FY26E adjusted EPS.

Stock Market LIVE Updates | DB Realty to soon hit the market with Rs 2,000 crore QIP

DB Realty Ltd plans to raise Rs 1,500-2,000 crore by selling shares to qualified institutional investors, two people aware of the property developer’s plans said.

The company plans to complete the fundraising, which comes after a gap of several years, in the coming weeks, depending on market conditions, the people said, requesting anonymity.

A successful fundraising could mark a turnaround for the company, once a prominent real estate developer in the Mumbai market. DB Realty’s troubles started when its promoters, Shahid Balwa and Vinod Goenka, were named as accused in the 2G spectrum allocation scam. They were later acquitted by a special CBI court in December 2017 due to a lack of substantial evidence. However, their prolonged legal battle resulted in delays in projects and lenders turning away.

The real estate developer has hired investment banks JM Financial and DAM Capital for the fundraising, the people cited above said. Read More

Stock Market LIVE Updates | Tata Power to supply green power to BluSmart, making it a zero-emissions company

Tata Power Trading Company Limited (TPTCL) has signed a multi-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with BluSmart for supplying green power for its e-vehicle fleet, according to an exchange filing filed by the eMobility ride-hailing service provider on February 21.

With this partnership, BluSmart, which also operates an EV charging network in Delhi NCR and Bengaluru, will now transition from zero tailpipe emissions to a zero-emissions company.

Per the PPA, TPTCL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Power, will source 30 MW solar-energy capacity from the company’s 200 MW Solar PV power plant in Rajasthan's Bikaner.

BluSmart's latest partnership with TPTCL will enable it to eliminate Scope 2 emissions from its existing 1.4 million-square-foot EV charging infrastructure and future charging hubs. Notably, it has now emerged as the first mobility player in India to transition from zero tailpipe emissions to a zero-emissions company.

Sensex Today | Shrey Jain, Founder and CEO SAS Online

Despite a neutral global market sentiment and slight selling from foreign institutional investors (FIIs), the domestic market remains robust, hitting a lifetime high for the second consecutive day. We anticipate Nifty to trade with a positive bias today. On the downside, significant Put strikes are observed at 22000 and 22100, expected to provide immediate support.

Looking ahead, if Bank Nifty sustains above 47200 levels, we foresee a move towards 47500 levels. Notably, the 47000 Call strike in Bank Nifty holds substantial Open Interest (OI) of around 23 lakhs shares, while the 47000 Put strike holds sizable OI of approximately 29 lakh shares. It's advisable to adopt a "buy on dips" strategy in this scenario.

Sensex Today | V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services:

With seven days of record intraday highs this year Nifty is exhibiting great strength. The big emerging market worry of rising bond yields in the US is not impacting India since FIIs have been forced to reduce their selling since they are being completely neutralised by sustained DII buying assisted by retail exuberance. This resilient domestic buying is providing the main support to the ongoing rally in the market, and the strong performance of the economy and improving corporate earnings are solid fundamental support to the market.

The fact that the fairly valued large private banks are now contributing to the rally is a positive signal. This has the potential to sustain. But the irrational exuberance in pockets of the broader market is unlikely to sustain. Retail investors should not be carried away by this exuberance.
