Shares of Hero MotoCorp gained 3% to their dayโs high of Rs 4,980 on the BSE on Thursday after the company unveiled its first flex-fuel motorcycles, marking its entry into a segment aimed at supporting India's transition towards cleaner and more sustainable mobility solutions.The country's largest two-wheeler manufacturer launched flex-fuel versions of its flagship Splendor+ and HF Deluxe motorcycles, making them India's first flex-fuel motorcycles in the 100cc category.

He added that wider adoption of such vehicles could improve energy security, lower carbon emissions and reduce dependence on imported crude oil while strengthening the country's biofuels ecosystem.Chitale said the flex-fuel-ready Splendor+ and HF Deluxe were developed at the company's Centre for Innovation & Technology in Jaipur and reflect Hero MotoCorp's focus on future-ready and locally relevant technologies. He added that the motorcycles have minimal-to-no import content and reinforce India's manufacturing capabilities.Hero MotoCorp said the flex-fuel portfolio will be introduced in Delhi and select regions of Maharashtra in July 2026, followed by a nationwide rollout. The HF Deluxe Flex Fuel has been priced at Rs 72,792 (ex-showroom Delhi), while the Splendor+ Flex Fuel will be available at Rs 82,710 (ex-showroom Delhi).(Disclaimer: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.

Bengaluru: Electric vehicle maker Ola Electric Mobility on Monday approved the opening of its qualified institutional placement (QIP) and set a floor price of โน37.74 per equity share for the issue, according to a stock exchange filing.The company's fund raising committee approved the launch of the issue on June 1 and cleared the preliminary placement document for institutional investors. The company may also offer a discount of up to 5% on the floor price in line with Sebi regulations, the filings read.QIP is a way for listed companies to raise money from large institutional investors such as mutual funds, insurance firms, sovereign funds and foreign portfolio investors, without going through a public issue process.The fundraising comes at a time when Ola Electric is navigating slowing sales, market share pressures and continued losses in the electric two-wheeler market. The company on May 14 also announced โน2,000 crore investment into its wholly-owned subsidiaries focused on electric vehicle and battery manufacturing, as it looks to double down on localisation and vertical integration.Ola reported a consolidated net loss of Rs 500 crore for the fourth quarter ended March 2026, narrowing 42.5% from Rs 870 crore in the year-ago period, aided by lower expenses. In Q3, the company had reported a loss of Rs 487 crore. For the full 2026 financial year, the company posted a consolidated net loss of Rs 1,833 crore compared with Rs 2,276 crore in FY25. Revenue from operations fell sharply to Rs 2,253 crore from Rs 4,514 crore a year ago. Brokerages have also flagged concerns around market share erosion and cash burn. Citi earlier downgraded the stock to and cut its target price, citing persistent challenges to volume growth and rising balance sheet pressures. The company recently reported a recovery in registrations, with May registrations rising to 14,752 units. Ola said the issue price will be determined in consultation with the book running lead managers. โFor Q1 FY27, we expect 40,000- 45,000 orders and consolidated revenue of Rs 500-550 crore, nearly double Q4 levels. As volumes recover, we expect the auto business to move towards adjusted operating EBITDA and free cash flow positivity through FY27,โ Aggarwal said in its shareholderโs letter. The companyโs focus remains on its EV products, particularly electric motorcycles and cell manufacturing, he added. Olaโs shares on Monday closed at Rs 39.53 on BSE, 4.91% lower compared to previous trading session. The QIP announcement was made post market hours.

The All India Motor & Goods Transport Association (AIMGTA) has called on the central government to lower petrol and diesel prices. They argue that the significant drop in international crude oil prices, from $104 to $90 per barrel, should be reflected domestically. This reduction, they state, is crucial to alleviate pressure on the transport sector and curb rising inflation.
Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) emerged as heavy sellers in Indian equities on Friday, pulling out a net Rs 20,637 crore in a single session, recording one of the sharpest single-day selloffs in recent years, as markets grappled with the impact of the latest MSCI index rebalancing.Before this, the sharpest fall occurred last month (April 2, 2026), when FIIs pulled out Rs 19,837 crore in a single day, data from ACE Equity showed.The selloff came as benchmark indices fell 1.5%, with market participants attributing much of the late-session weakness to passive fund flows linked to the index reshuffle. The scale of foreign investor activity stood out not just because of the outflow figure, but also because of the sheer volume traded during the session.FPIs accounted for Rs 198,465 crore of trading activity out of the NSE's total turnover of Rs 287,452 crore, representing nearly 69% of the day's traded value, provisional data on the NSE showed.Despite ending the day as net sellers of Rs 20,637 crore, FPIs traded nearly 9.6 times that amount during the session. In comparison, domestic institutional investors (DIIs) were net buyers of Rs 16,260 crore and recorded total trades worth Rs 53,772 crore, or around 3.3 times their net purchase value.The high participation prompted questions over whether the activity was solely driven by MSCI-related portfolio adjustments or whether high-frequency trading (HFT) strategies amplified volumes around the index rebalance. The size of the turnover also sparked debate over how much of the reported foreign outflow reflected actual portfolio repositioning and how much may have been linked to short-term trading activity.Nilesh Shah, MD of Kotak Mahindra Asset Management, questioned whether the surge in activity was surprising given that Indian equities are currently not a key focus area for FPIs. He also asked whether Friday's volumes were driven purely by MSCI rebalancing or whether high-frequency trading (HFT) activity around the index reshuffle had amplified turnover. Shah further wondered how much of the reported net FPI outflow of Rs 20,637 crore could be attributed to HFT trades.Market expert Gurmeet Chadha also questioned the sharp rise in trading volumes, arguing that โspeed and money muscleโ were being used to distort market moves. He further highlighted the addition of 31,000 short contracts even as Brent crude hovered around $90 a barrel and hopes of a weekend deal persisted. Calling the activity suspicious, he said โwe need to act and trap this cartelโ.According to Abhilash Pagaria, Head of Alternative and Quantitative Research at NuvamaWealth, the rebalancing led to outflows of around Rs 8,000-8,500 crore. He said the figure was somewhat higher than in previous reviews due to free-float adjustments in stocks such as Bajaj Finance, HUL and TCS, among others, describing the impact as a one-time adjustment arising from a new methodology.MSCI RejigMSCI's latest review saw Federal Bank, MCX, NALCO and Indian Bank added to the MSCI Standard Index, while Hyundai Motor India, Jubilant FoodWorks, Kalyan Jewellers and RVNL were removed. The changes took effect at the close of trade on May 29.The review also resulted in weight increases for Adani Power, BPCL, Nykaa, Trent and OFFS. Despite the reshuffle, India's overall weight in the MSCI Standard Index remained broadly stable at around 12.3%, compared with 12.4% earlier. The total number of Indian constituents in the index also remained unchanged at 165.Beyond the Standard Index, MSCI announced a broader rejig of its Small Cap Index. According to Nuvama, more than a dozen Indian stocks were excluded, reducing the India stock count to 459 from 474. New additions included IREDA, Anthem Biosciences, Fractal Analytics, Pine Labs and Emmvee Photovoltaic, while Cello World, Redtape, Raymond Lifestyle, Indigo Paints, Balu Forge and Blue Jet Healthcare were among the exclusions.Index review days typically witness elevated volumes as passive funds tracking MSCI benchmarks adjust their holdings to match the revised composition.(Disclaimer: Recommendations, suggestions, views and opinions given by the experts are their own.

Mumbai: India's equity indices fell 1.5% on Friday, posting losses for the month, as outflows on account of MSCI index rebalancing triggered a late decline during the trading session. The extension of the tentative ceasefire deal by 60 days eased oil prices but did little to improve sentiment in equities, with Donald Trump yet to sign off on it.The NSE Nifty closed at 23,547.75, down 1.5%, or 359.40 points, while the BSE Sensex ended at 74,775.74, down 1.4% or 1,092.06 points. For May, the Nifty and Sensex slipped 1.9% and 2.8% lower, respectively.Both indices were on track to post modest gains on Friday but selling in the last 30 minutes sent shares tumbling."The MSCI rebalancing led to outflows worth โน8,000-8,500 crore, which were slightly higher than previous instances, but that was due to float adjustments in certain names like Bajaj Finance, HUL, TCS, and many others," said Abhilash Pagaria, head of alternative and quantitative research, Nuvama Wealth. "This is a one-time new methodology adjustment that weighed on the market on Friday."When global index providers like MSCI add or remove stocks in their indices, passive funds tracking these are forced to buy or sell them in line with the new weights.131402604Fear Gauge Jumps On Friday, Federal Bank, MCX, Nalco and Indian Bank were added to the MSCI Standard Index, while Hyundai Motor India, Jubilant FoodWorks, Kalyan Jewellers and RVNL were excluded.According to Nuvama Alternates, India's weight in the MSCI Standard Index is expected to remain broadly stable at around 12%, with the overall stock count unchanged as four got added and four were excluded.All sectoral indices ended lower on Friday with the IT index bucking the weak trend. Nifty Oil & gas dropped 2.5% while Nifty Metal and Auto indices fell around 2%. Nifty Consumer Durables and FMCG indices declined close to 1.5% while Bank Nifty slid 1.1% lower.Even before the sell-off linked to the MSCI index rejig, gains were measured in response to the provisional deal between the US and Iran."The deal for extension of ceasefire between the US and Iran is not yet signed and it doesn't seem that either of them is in a hurry to sign the deal either," said UR Bhat, cofounder and director, Alphaniti. "The nuclear material in Iran remains a point of contention and investors don't expect a concrete agreement immediately. If the stalemate continues and oil prices shoot up, then the market could see declines. However, if it is signed, then some respite is likely."Brent crude oil futures eased about 2% to nearly $90 on Friday after rising 0.5% on Thursday.The India VIX volatility index jumped 8% to 16.2 on Friday, suggesting traders are not convinced that risks have subsided. The measure was, however, down 9% in the week. "Nifty is stuck in a downward sloping range of around 24,000 levels on the higher side and 23,250-23,000 on the lower side," said Vipin Kumar, AVP, Globe Capital Market. "These levels are unlikely to be broken in the coming week."Foreign portfolio investors sold shares worth a net Rs 21,105.9 crore on Friday, while domestic institutional investors bought shares worth Rs 16,764.1 crore. In May, foreign investors sold shares worth Rs 49,192 crore."Overseas investors could continue to churn large-cap holdings. However, the broader market remains resilient and poised for outperformance," said Pagaria.Out of 4,463 shares traded on the BSE, 1,611 advanced, and 2,673 declined. The Nifty Midcap 150 index declined 1.4%, while the Nifty Smallcap 250 ended 0.7% lower. In the past week, the two gained 1% and 1.2%, respectively.
