Prominent Investors Adjust Stakes in Small-Cap and NBFC Stocks Amid Market Rally

Analysed 20 Jul 2026·11 sources analysed·India·Business
Prominent Investors Adjust Stakes in Small-Cap and NBFC Stocks Amid Market RallyPreviousNext

In recent market developments, prominent investors have adjusted their portfolios with varied strategies. Mukul Agarwal increased his stake in Laxmi India Finance, a retail-focused NBFC targeting underpenetrated Tier-II and rural markets, citing steady loan growth. Meanwhile, Sunil Singhania, Ashish Dhawan, and Sanjiv Shah invested in diverse companies at turning points, including a cargo airline and a chemical maker. Conversely, ace investors like Ashish Kacholia and Mukul Agrawal sold small-cap stocks in Q1 FY27, booking profits amid a strong market rally, while analysts remain cautiously optimistic about fundamentally strong small- and mid-cap stocks.
