Market Movers and Sector Updates: January 2025

The rally in auto stocks set the tone for a bullish day, reflecting optimism fueled by December sales growth. Eicher Motors gained 6.4%, with Maruti Suzuki shares also rising 5% after reporting a 30% sales surge. This sector-wide momentum lifted the Nifty Auto Index by 3%.

On the flip side, regulatory headwinds hit Petronet LNG, resulting in an 8.5% drop. Despite this, infrastructure-linked stocks like RailTel Corporation saw gains after securing a ₹78.43 crore order, showcasing investor interest in government contracts and growth-oriented projects.

Shares under ₹100 also gained attention, with Mercury Ev-Tech reaching its upper circuit on acquisition news and South Indian Bank remaining a popular intraday pick.

The stock market’s performance today reflects sector-specific trends, where strong sales and strategic moves have spurred gains, while regulatory hurdles impacted select stocks. Investors should continue to focus on market fundamentals for sustained growth.
