Indian equity markets witnessed broad-based selling pressure on Tuesday, with the Nifty approaching a crucial support zone near its 200 DEMA around the 25,150 level. Analysts suggest that while a brief pause or rebound cannot be ruled out, any recovery will largely depend on the performance of banking and IT sectors. Against this backdrop, several companies have emerged in focus due to quarterly results and major corporate announcements.

Strong Q3 Earnings Performance

Multiple companies reported impressive third-quarter results, showcasing resilient business performance despite market challenges.

AU Small Finance Bank delivered robust financial performance for the December quarter:

United Spirits also reported strong earnings growth, with consolidated net profit rising 25% to ₹418 crores compared to ₹335 crores in the corresponding quarter last year.

Inspira will purchase the entire 11.26% shareholding in Restaurant Brands Asia from QSR Asia, Everstone's investment vehicle.

KP Green Engineering secured substantial new business with orders worth ₹248.2 crores across multiple verticals. The orders span renewable, transmission, industrial, and infrastructure sectors, reflecting the company's expanding market presence and diversified product portfolio.

Regulatory and Market Developments

The Competition Commission of India (CCI) approved Emirates NBD Bank's proposal to acquire a majority stake in RBL Bank.

In block deal activity, French multinational bank BNP Paribas acquired over 35.43 lakh shares in Tata Motors Commercial Vehicle through a transaction valued at ₹152 crores, with Goldman Sachs serving as the seller.

Mixed Retail Performance

Contrary to the positive earnings trend, Shoppers Stop faced significant challenges in the December quarter. The department store chain reported a 69% decline in quarterly profit to ₹16.1 crores compared to ₹52.2 crores in the previous year, attributed to reduced discretionary spending by urban consumers amid slowing wage growth in major cities.

Market Outlook

Several companies including Eternal, DRL, HPCL, and Tata Communications are scheduled to announce their third-quarter results, which will provide further insights into corporate performance trends. The market's response to these developments will likely depend on the broader sectoral performance, particularly in banking and IT segments that have shown relative resilience.
