Reasons for the rise in the stock market
S Ranganathan, Head of Research, LKP Securities said, “The bulls propelled the Nifty above the 16,000 mark on the back of better GST and export data. Domestic institutional investors infused Rs 280 billion in the first four months of the current financial year. The country’s exports grew 47.19 percent to $35.17 billion in July, according to official data released after the market closed on Monday. Overall exports increased on the back of good growth in Petroleum, Engineering and Gems & Jewelery sectors.
According to Ranganathan, it is clear that the Nifty has crossed the 16,000 level mainly led by retail investors. Retail investors put money in the stock markets while foreign institutional investors pulled out Rs 95 billion from the market during the same period. Vinod Modi, head of strategy research, Reliance Securities, said key data such as GST collection, vehicle sales and e-way bills are indicating a strong revival in July. This is an indication of better financial results of the companies in the next quarter.
