LIC Boosts Stakes in 76 Firms, Adds 13 New Stocks in Q2 FY26

Imagine LIC is like a big investor with a giant piggy bank for stocks.

In the last few months, LIC decided to buy more shares in 76 different companies, like giving them a little extra boost.

They also decided to buy shares in 13 new companies they hadn't invested in before, like exploring new toy stores.

However, they also sold off some shares in 81 other companies, perhaps to buy the new ones or those they liked more.

Even though they bought a lot, the total value of all their stocks went down a little bit because the overall stock market wasn't doing too well.

Some of their biggest new investments were in companies like BSE and Yes Bank.

Their biggest increases in shares were in State Bank of India, Sun Pharmaceuticals, and HCL Technologies.

But they did sell some shares in HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, and Larsen & Toubro.
