Indian Stocks Slide as Axis Bank Profit Falls, Analysts Eye Gains
The Indian stock market went down again, the second day in a row.
This was influenced by poor results from Axis Bank, which made investors worry and sell their stocks.
Axis Bank's profits fell because more loans were not being paid back.
Experts suggest that certain stocks like SAIL, Aadhar Housing, and Jubilant Pharmova might go up in value soon.
The Sensex and Nifty both ended lower, showing the market's struggles.
Indian stock market declined for the second consecutive session.
Axis Bank reported a 4% YoY decline in net profit due to increased slippages and provisions.
The Sensex closed at 81,758 and Nifty closed at 24,968.
Slippages at Axis Bank increased to ₹8,200 crore, with ₹7,500 crore from retail.
Analysts suggest potential short-term gains for SAIL, Aadhar Housing, and Jubilant Pharmova.
