Indian Stock Market Trends and Key Stocks to Watch
The Indian stock market had a tough day on Monday, with the Sensex and Nifty 50 both going down.
This was because of worries about the situation between the United States and Iran, and higher oil prices.
Some stocks will be in focus on Tuesday because they are going to report their earnings.
Paytm made a lot more money this quarter, and BlueStone Jewellery turned a loss into a profit.
Larsen & Toubro got some big orders, and IndiGo made a huge deal for airplane engines.
The market might not do well on Tuesday because of these worries.
The Sensex fell 443 points, or 0.57%, to settle at 77,708.52.
The Nifty 50 lost 96 points, or 0.39%, ending the session at 24,238.50.
Broader markets outperformed the headline indices with the Nifty Midcap 100 advancing 0.60% and the Nifty Smallcap 100 gaining 0.16%.
Paytm reported a 79% year-on-year increase in net profit to ₹220 crore for the quarter.
BlueStone Jewellery posted an adjusted net profit of ₹14 crore for the June quarter, reversing a loss from the previous year.
