I had mentioned in Monday’s closing report that Nifty, Sensex might rise a bit more. On Tuesday, the market report was not published by Moneylife, as the office was closed due to heavy rains in Mumbai. Geo-political tensions, foreign fund outflows dragged the equity markets lower on Tuesday. On Wednesday, the major indices of the Indian stock markets rallied and closed with handsome gains over Tuesday’s close. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions

A day after closing at their lowest levels in a week's time, key Indian equity indices bounced back to trade with substantial gains during the mid-afternoon session on Wednesday as positive global cues and buying in oil and gas, metal and banking stocks lifted investors' sentiments. According to market observers, buying in index heavyweights like HDFC, Reliance Industries, Adani Ports and Coal India aided the upward trajectory of the NSE Nifty50 and the BSE Sensex. On the NSE, there were 1,114 advances, 322 declines and 54 unchanged.

After a sharp fall in the previous session, the benchmark indices opened higher on Wednesday ahead of derivatives expiry of August series due on Thursday. Positive trend in Asian markets and on Wall Street, after concerns about North Korea's firing of a missile over Japan ebbed, aided the sentiment, pointed out market analysts.

Shares of Bank of Baroda, Tata Power, Tata Motors DVR and ACC fell up to 3% lower as these companies will move out of the NSE's benchmark Nifty 50 index from September 29. Top gainers on NSE were Indian Oil Corporation, Hindalco and Vedanta, while on the losing side were HCL, Zee and Tech Mahindra. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions

Maruti Suzuki India on Wednesday announced the upgrading of its retail channel for better customer service as the re-branded 'Maruti Suzuki Arena' that will require its dealers to invest in redesigned showrooms over the next five years. "Besides providing a more comfortable ambience for buyers, key to the new-look dealerships is the digital connectivity offering a seamless experience of the car going from online to offline at the showroom," an official of India's biggest car maker said here at the launch event. The company website has been suitably upgraded. The investment in re-doing the more than 2,000 dealerships across India would be made by the dealers themselves who have readily agreed to it, said R.S. Kalsi, Senior Executive Director (Marketing and Sales). "About 80 showrooms of the 2,050 in India will be converted to the Arena within this financial year," he said, adding the other "partners" will upgrade to the Arena format within three to five years. "With today's launch, the company will have four distinct retail channels -- Arena, Nexa, Maruti Suzuki Commercial and True Value. Arena is set to usher in a new chapter in our sales journey and help attract new buyers," said Chief Executive Kenichi Ayukawa. The company’s shares closed at Rs7,557.45, up 0.51% on the NSE.

Hailing the return of co-founder Nandan Nilekani at the helm of his troubled global software major, Infosys founder N.R Narayana Murthy on Saturday hoped 'Acche Din' (good days) would be back at the $10 billion IT behemoth. "I wish Nandan the best of everything in his effort to bring back 'Acche Din' to Infosys," said Murthy, 70, in a statement to global institutional investors in a conference call here. Nilekani, 62, took over as non-Executive Chairman of the Board on August 24 after previous Chairman R. Seshasayee resigned along with Co-Chairman Ravi Venkatesan, Vice-Chairman and former CEO Vishal Sikka and Independent Directors Jeffery Lehman and John Etchemendy. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions
