Shares of Prataap Snacks made its debut on the bourses today. The potato chips maker got listed at a price of Rs 1,270 per share on the Bombay Stock Exchange.

Mahindra and Mahindra

Mahindra and Mahindra

Shares in Mahindra led gainers in trade today, despite a very subdued market trend. The stock was up almost 2 per cent in trade after a brokerage firm CLSA upgraded the Mahindra & Mahindra stock to a ‘Buy' from ‘Outperform' and hiked its price target to Rs 1,610 from Rs 1,585.

Interestingly, the stock has seen good momentum, after strong tractor sales in the month of September. Following the strong number, several brokerages have turned bullish on the stock. However, the stock has still underperformed the benchmark indices and gained only 11 per cent, as compared to a 20 per cent jump for the Sensex. Check stock quote of

Reliance Home Finance

Reliance Home Finance

Shares in Reliance Home Finance slumped to a new 52-week of of Rs 86.80. Sentiments for the ADAG group stocks were weak, given the recent deal between RCOM and Aircel being called-off. Along with Reliance Home Finance, other stocks that were impacted include stocks from the same group like Reliance Capital, which also slumped about 2 per cent.

"RCOM and Aircel Limited (Aircel) had signed binding agreements in September 2016 for the merger of RCOM's mobile businesses with Aircel. Legal and regulatory uncertainties, and various interventions by vested interests, have caused inordinate delays in receipt of relevant approvals for the proposed transaction," the company said in a release earlier this week.
