Markets extend losses for 3rd session amid broad-based selloff; Sensex and Nifty tumbled
Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty tumbled nearly 1% on Tuesday (June 3, 2025) weighed down by a widespread selloff amid foreign fund outflows and growing geopolitical uncertainties. Domestic markets stayed on the back foot for the third straight session as investors offloaded energy, finance and IT stocks, traders said. In a volatile trading session, the 30-share BSE index tanked 636.24 points or 0.78% to settle at 80,737.51. During the day, it dropped 798.66 points or 0.98% to 80,575.09. The NSE Nifty plunged 174.10 points or 0.70% to 24,542.50. As many as 2,266 stocks declined, while 1,731 advanced and 147 remained unchanged on the BSE. "The domestic market remained in negative terrain amid mixed global cues, geopolitical issues and a volatile currency market led by a weak USD. Profit-booking is evident across sectors, except for real estate stocks, supported by expectations of an interest rate cut by the RBI. "Mid and small-cap stocks are experiencing relatively less consolidation than large caps due to better earnings growth & moderation in premium valuation. While short-term consolidation is likely to persist, strong domestic-oriented players are estimated to provide outperformance against external volatility," Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said. From the Sensex firms, Adani Ports declined 2.42%. Bajaj Finserv, Bajaj Finance, Power Grid, Eternal, IndusInd Bank, Maruti, Tata Consultancy Services and UltraTech Cement were among the biggest laggards. Mahindra & Mahindra emerged as the only gainer in the pack. Adani Group's 11 listed companies ended lower. Adani Group on Monday said it does not handle any cargo coming from Iran or any Iranian-owned ship at any of its ports, as it denied any deliberate engagement in sanctions evasion. In a stock exchange filing, the group said reports of links between any of its entities and Iranian LPG are "baseless and mischievous". The BSE midcap gauge declined 0.52%, while the smallcap index dipped 0.07%. Among sectoral indices, power dropped 1.50%, utilities (1.42%), bankex (0.89%), energy (0.88%), capital goods (0.87%), financial services (0.80%) and teck (0.68%). On the other hand, commodities and realty were the gainers. "The Nifty has extended its consolidation phase for yet another day, showing no urgency in establishing a clear directional trend. It appears that investors are awaiting a decisive commentary following the RBI's interest rate decision," Rupak De, Senior Technical Analyst at LKP Securities, said. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth ₹2,589.47 crore on Monday, according to exchange data. "The ongoing foreign fund outflows, coupled with weak global cues such as geopolitical tensions and uncertainty over trade deals, are adding pressure to the markets," Ajit Mishra – SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd, said. In Asian markets, Shanghai's SSE Composite index and Hong Kong's Hang Seng settled in positive territory, while Japan's Nikkei 225 index ended lower. South Korean markets were closed. European markets were trading lower. US markets ended higher on Monday. Global oil benchmark Brent crude climbed 0.28% to $64.81 a barrel. After tumbling 796.75 points or 0.97% to 80,654.26 in intra-day trade on Monday, the 30-share BSE Sensex witnessed volatile trends and later ended 77.26 points or 0.09% lower at 81,373.75. The Nifty dipped 34.10 points or 0.14% to settle at 24,716.60.

ITC stake strategic, not financial: BAT chief executive Tadeu Marroco
British American Tobacco plc (BAT) still considers its holding in ITC a 'strategic investment,' chief executive Tadeu Marroco said on Tuesday, just days after the UK-based tobacco giant trimmed its stake in the cigarettes-to-soap conglomerate. On May 28, BAT sold 2.5 per cent in ITC, with net proceeds amounting to Rs 12,941 crore. The sale reduced BAT's holding in ITC to 22.93 per cent. Responding to a question on how the ITC stake should be viewed during a post-results conference, Marroco said, 'The ITC stake is still for us a strategic investment. It's not a financial investment.' Expanding on the rationale, Marroco pointed to the size of the Indian market, the demographics, the potential GDP per capita growth, and highlighted that ITC is a very well-oiled and run company with leadership in distribution and cigarettes. 'We have a multi-layer relationship with ITC coming back for many years. As you know, we have some inter-party relations with them in leaf, in IT, and we have expectations that new category can be a big factor in the India market in the future. And we want to preserve, as a consequence, a relevant stake in ITC,' the BAT chief executive said. Marroco also confirmed that BAT would keep its two directors on the ITC board so that it has an influence. The partial monetisation of the ITC stake is to enable increased financial flexibility. 'This is basically a decision to allow us to have financial flexibility to beef up the buyback a bit more and at the same time ensure that we get to the leverage corridor that we are aiming for between 2–2.5x by the end of next year,' Marroco said during the call. This is the second instance in two years that BAT has sold a partial stake in ITC. In March 2024, BAT had sold 3.5 per cent to initiate its buyback programme. The sale brought its stake down to 25.44 per cent and generated net proceeds of £1.6 billion. The latest round has brought it down further to 22.93 per cent. A 25 per cent holding allows shareholders to influence or oppose resolutions, especially special resolutions that require 75 per cent of the votes cast to be in their favour. In 2023, Marroco had outlined the importance of having 'at least 25 per cent of shareholding in India' and said that it would enable BAT to keep board seats, veto resolutions of the company, and steer it to certain opportunities.
