Shares of Finolex Cables gained for the first time after a six-day drop on Monday. The stock ended with gains of over 5 percent. The stock had corrected 13 percent during the six-session drop.
Sources within the dealing rooms tell CNBC-TV18 that the stock has been seen buying interest from High Networth Individuals (HNIs) on Monday. Dealers suggest that settlement of the family tussle will be a key monitorable for the stock.
With Monday's gain, the stock has turned flat for the year, erasing all of its losses.
Some Relief
Benchmark indices ended higher after a four-day correction. The Benchmark indices ended with gains of as much as 3 percent. The Nifty 50 ended above the mark of 18,000 led mainly by financials. The PSU Bank index gained as much as 7.6 percent on Monday.
Dealers are calling this a pullback move from oversold levels. As the year draws to a close, flows are muted from foreign investors while domestic funds are selective buyers, according to dealers.
As mentioned, financials and broader markets saw a swift recovery after a brutal sell-off last week.
Dealers now see upside resistance for the Nifty 50 at levels of 18,200.
