Indian Defence Stocks Decline Amidst West Asia Ceasefire
Indian defense stocks have gone down recently because of the ceasefire in West Asia.
This means less worry about war in that area, so people think there might be less need for new weapons.
However, some stocks, like those tied to NATO spending, saw gains because NATO is planning to spend more on defense.
Experts believe this business area will continue to grow due to NATO's plan to increase defense spending.

Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers saw a 5.5% decrease.
Bharat Dynamics corrected 3.6% in the past week.
MTar Technologies fell almost 7% due to the ceasefire news.
