Sensex Rejig: Trent, BEL to see over $700 million in inflows; Nestle, IndusInd face exit

Sensex Rejig: Trent, BEL to see over $700 million in inflows; Nestle, IndusInd face exit

Time of India20-06-2025
The BSE Sensex is set for a reshuffle next week, with Tata Group's Trent and Bharat Electronics (BEL) entering the benchmark 30-share index, replacing
Nestle India
and
IndusInd Bank
. The changes, announced earlier, will take effect from Monday, June 24, while passive fund flows linked to the rejig are expected on June 20.
According to estimates by Nuvama Alternative Research, Bharat Electronics could see inflows of around $378 million — approximately 2.8 times its average daily volume (ADV). BEL shares have rallied 38% over the last six months, driven by strong interest in defence sector stocks.
Trent, the Tata Group's retail arm, may witness passive inflows of $330 million, or 5.8 times its ADV. Despite a 15% decline over the past six months, Trent remains a key large-cap component in the BSE 100 index.

On the other hand, Nestle India is likely to see outflows of $230 million — roughly 10.7 times its average daily volume (ADV) — following its removal from the index. The stock has gained 8% over the last six months.

IndusInd Bank, which has faced scrutiny over governance concerns in recent months, will also be excluded. The lender may see outflows of $145 million, equivalent to about 1.9 times its ADV.

Among other changes,
UltraTech Cement
will see a marginal weight increase, with estimated inflows of $4 million. Meanwhile, index heavyweights such as
HDFC Bank
,
Bharti Airtel
,
Reliance Industries
,
ICICI Bank
,
Infosys
,
Sun Pharma
, L&T, and
ITC
are expected to see minor weight reductions, possibly resulting in limited passive outflows.
Separately, the FTSE index rejig is also expected to trigger significant inflows into several Indian stocks.
Vishal Mega Mart
may see the highest inflow at $115 million, followed by
Hyundai Motor India
($56 million),
Waaree Energies
($49 million),
Swiggy
($32 million), and
NTPC Green Energy
($22 million).
Additionally, Reliance Industries could receive $57 million in inflows, with an estimated 3 million shares being added—though this represents only 0.3 times its average daily volume (ADV). Other companies expected to be included in the FTSE indices include Afcons Infrastructure, OneSource Specialty Pharma, Sai Life Sciences, and Inventurus Knowledge.
Index rebalancing exercises are closely tracked by investors as they influence passive fund flows and reflect broader market trends. These adjustments help ensure that benchmark indices such as the Sensex remain aligned with India's evolving equity landscape.

INR supported by weak greenback overseas

The Indian rupee appreciated 20 paise to close at 87.43 (provisional) against the US dollar on Wednesday, as a weak greenback and a positive momentum in domestic equity markets supported. Domestic shares eked out modest gains after official data showed India's consumer price inflation eased more-than-expected in July to the lowest level in just over eight years, bringing inflation below RBI's tolerance band and raising prospects of another interest rate cut. Firm global cues and a weaker dollar also underpinned sentiment as in-line U.S. inflation data cemented expectations of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve in September. The benchmark BSE Sensex rose 304.32 points, or 0.38 percent, to 80,539.91. The broader NSE Nifty index ended up 131.95 points, or 0.54 percent at 24,619.35. Besides, weak crude oil prices and cooling domestic inflation supported the rupee, but uncertainties over trade tariffs and foreign fund outflows capped the sharp upside for the domestic unit. At the interbank foreign exchange, the rupee opened at 87.63, and oscillated between an intraday low of 87.72 and a high of 87.28 against the American currency.

Sensex climbs 304 points, Nifty closes above 24,600 as steady U.S. inflation fuels global rally

Stock markets rebounded on Wednesday (August 13, 2025) with benchmark Sensex closing higher by 304 points on buying in metal, auto and pharma shares as steady U.S. inflation data propelled a sharp rally in global markets. The 30-share BSE Sensex climbed 304.32 points or 0.38% to settle at 80,539.91. During the day, it jumped 448.15 points or 0.55% to 80,683.74. The 50-share NSE Nifty edged up by 131.95 points or 0.54% to 24,619.35. Analysts said retail inflation slowing to an 8-year low of 1.55% in July led to the positive trend in domestic equities. 'Indian equities experienced a broad-based optimism as CPI hit an eight-year low, boosting hopes for a revival in discretionary spending, led by autos and metals. Globally, sentiment improved on the extension of China's tariff deadline and easing oil prices. 'Despite uncertainties around Trump's trade stance and global risks, India's growth-inflation dynamics remain favourable for FY26 with risk to marginal downgrade based on tariff updates. India looks forward to the Trump-Putin meet dated 15th August,' Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said. Among Sensex firms, Bharat Electronics, Eternal, Mahindra & Mahindra, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Tata Motors and Power Grid were the gainers. However, Adani Ports, ITC, UltraTech Cement and Titan were among the laggards. Retail inflation slowed to an 8-year low of 1.55% in July, falling below the Reserve Bank's comfort zone for the first time since January 2019, helped by subdued prices of food items, according to government data released on Tuesday (August 12, 2025). Among Asian markets, South Korea's Kospi, Japan's Nikkei 225 index, Shanghai's SSE Composite index and Hong Kong's Hang Seng settled sharply higher. European markets were trading in the green. The U.S. markets ended significantly higher on Tuesday (August 12, 2025). Global oil benchmark Brent crude dipped 0.36% to $65.88 a barrel. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth ₹3,398.80 crore on Tuesday (August 12, 2025), according to exchange data. Sensex dropped 368.49 points or 0.46% to settle at 80,235.59, while Nifty went lower by 97.65 points or 0.40% to 24,487.40 on Tuesday (August 12, 2025).
