Market Cap of Four Top Firms Rises Rs 92,995 Crore Amid Mixed Weekly Market Performance
Last week, four of India's top-10 most valued firms saw a combined market capitalization increase of Rs 92,995 crore, led by HDFC Bank and Bharti Airtel. Despite this, benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty declined by around 0.25%, influenced by geopolitical tensions in West Asia and rising crude oil prices. Other gainers included Reliance Industries and LIC, while companies like ICICI Bank, SBI, TCS, Bajaj Finance, Larsen & Toubro, and Hindustan Unilever experienced valuation declines. Markets recovered some losses late in the week after mid-week sell-offs.
