Jio Financial, Groww, Laurus Labs Lead Stocks in Focus

Jio Financial, Groww, Laurus Labs Lead Stocks in Focus

Every day, newspapers and apps tell people which company shares to watch in the stock market.

Today's list talks about some big Indian companies.

One big thing: Bank of America, a huge American bank, is buying almost half of Jio's lending business called Jio Credit.

That means they will own 49.9 out of every 100 parts of that business.

It costs them a lot of money: 1.9 billion dollars.

Some companies like Groww and Laurus Labs got a special invitation to join a world-famous list of companies called the MSCI India Index.

Other companies like SBI Cards and Astral had to leave that list.

A phone company called Airtel stopped selling some cheaper prepaid plans, so customers may have to pay more.

Some companies got big orders to build things, like a hospital and railway wagons.

When big news like this happens, people who own these shares watch closely to see if prices go up or down.
