Bank of Baroda Share Rally As India Ratings Assigns IND AAA/Stable Rating To Bank of Baroda Rs 10000 Cr of Bonds
On Monday, the shares of Bank of Baroda were trading in green at Rs 197 after India Ratings assigned IND AAA/Stable rating to Bank of Baroda INR 10000 crores of Infrastructure and Affordable Housing Bonds.
“The ratings continue to reflect BOB’s high-systemic importance to the government of India (GoI; 63.97% stake as of September 2023), and hence, a high probability of support from the GoI, if required. The ratings also reflect BOB’s large franchise with a pan-India and relatively large international presence, strong capitalisation, and superior liquidity and asset quality metrics, which are better than comparable public sector banks (PSBs),” said BoB in a stock exchange filing.

Bajaj Healthcare Q2 Results
The company reported that, in comparison to Q2 of the previous year, its revenue from continuing operations dropped by 48.18% to Rs 1012.10 Mn in Q2 FY24. This decline was primarily attributable to the broad terms of slow demand in both domestic and international markets during the first half of the year. Due to lower sales revenue, EBITDA from Continuing Operations dropped from Rs. 344.37 Mn in Q2 FY23 to Rs. 189.50 Mn in Q2 FY24. However, a stronger sales mix during the quarter expanded EBITDA margin, which climbed to 18.72% in Q2 FY24 from 17.63% in Q2 FY 23. According to the firm, its Q2 FY24 net profit was Rs. 51.24 million, with a fall in net profit margins from 10.89% in Q2 FY23 to 5.00% in Q2 FY24, primarily as a result of reduced sales revenues and finance and depreciation.

Rupee outlook
Anand James, Chief Market Strategist at Geojit Financial Services: USDINR saw a strong push into the 83.3-83.4 region on Friday, something that we had pencilled as a trigger towards a breakout move higher. However, we are inclined to see this as an aberration, given there was no follow through buying. That said, expect 84 to 84.6. should we begin trading above 83.4. Alternatively, downsides are expected to be held in the 83.19 region, but a penetration of 83.02 could expose 82.78.

This also brings the downside markers forward from 19262/19170 to 19433 or 19370 which would be critical as turnaround points while we play the 19840 trajectory.
