Stocks in Spotlight

  • Adani Wilmar’s shares experienced a notable increase of over 4% following the company’s release of its business updates for the first quarter of the fiscal year 2025 (Q1FY25). These updates likely provided positive insights into the company’s performance, potentially including metrics such as revenue growth, profit margins, and operational improvements. Investors often react favorably to strong quarterly performance indicators, which can drive share prices higher.
  • Dabur’s shares rose over 4% following the release of a positive business update for the April-June quarter. The company expects mid to high single-digit growth in consolidated revenue for the first quarter of the fiscal year 2025 (Q1FY25). This optimistic outlook likely boosted investor confidence, contributing to the rise in share price.
  • Marico’s shares surged over 6% after the company released a healthy business update for the April-June quarter. The positive update highlighted continued growth in demand trends, which likely reassured investors about the company’s performance and future prospects, driving the share price higher.
