passing day.

Bulls Riding The Market

Two weeks earlier, global head of equity strategy at Jefferies Christophe­r Wood said that the structural bull run in India remains intact. He further said that the job generation is promising in India, and so is the spending cycle. Economy is steadily coming back into shape, and this has benefitted the market big-time. The Sensex and Nifty indexes, representi­ng the Indian stock market performanc­e, have rallied to their alltime high levels showcasing the enthusiasm among investors.

‘Trillion Market Cap’ Mode On

The business media channels are hooked on to the Titan’s trillion mark today. The company crossed Rs 2 trillion mark on the back of a strong recovery in its Q2 earnings. This was enough to fill ace investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwa­la’s pockets, who made around Rs 800 crore profit today.

Moving on, the ‘trillion’ race was introduced by Reliance Industries, which hit Rs 17.46 lakh crore market capitalisa­tion just two days back.

Trending Of All

Titan remained trending in the market, after the company reported a 78% YoY revenue growth during the July-September quarter. The stock hit the market cap of Rs 2 trillion, which remained another trigger for the share rise. The company in its quarterly business update, stated that most of the stores are fully operationa­l. It is currently working on its retail network expansion.

Will This Race Continue?

Possibly. As long as the bull run continues and the liquidity in the market is flooded, Indian companies will continue to surpass such record-breaking paths. While inflation is burning a hole in common people's pockets, it’s helping companies to bear their input costs. This will only help them to expand their business after a twoyear long lull.
