Midday market movers: Vedanta Aluminium, Hitachi Energy rise, Ola slumps

On Monday morning, the stock market in India was mostly steady, with only small changes.

A stock market is a place where people buy and sell small pieces of companies.

Some companies had very good news, and their shares went up in price.

Vedanta Aluminium shares rose after the company won the right to dig for a mineral called bauxite in Odisha.

Hitachi Energy shares jumped because the company earned a lot more money and got a big new order to build giant battery storage.

State Bank of India made more money than before, but its shares still went down a little, which can happen when buyers expected even better news.

Titan, the company famous for jewellery, reached its highest price ever.

Ola Electric, which makes electric scooters, had a harder time because its sales dropped a lot, so its shares went down.

Overall, investors watched company earnings reports to decide which shares to buy or sell.
