On June 19, Indian stock markets had a quiet day with little change in overall direction. The Sensex dropped by 82.79 points (0.10%) and closed at 81,361.87, while the Nifty lost 18.80 points (0.08%) to end the day at 24,793.25.

Stocks to Watch Today

HDFC Bank

HDFC Bank’s non-banking financial company (NBFC) arm is all set to launch a major IPO worth ₹12,500 crore. The IPO will be open from June 25 to June 27, and will include ₹2,500 crore worth of fresh shares and a ₹10,000 crore Offer for Sale by the bank. This IPO is considered one of the most significant NBFC listings in recent times and is drawing a lot of market attention.

Nestle India

Nestle India is planning to discuss issuing its first-ever bonus shares at its board meeting on June 26. If approved, this would be a big milestone for the company. Additionally, Nestle India and IndusInd Bank will be removed from the BSE Sensex on June 23, and Trent and Bharat Electronics will replace them.

Biocon

Biocon has successfully completed a Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP) at a price of ₹330 per share, which is about 3% lower than the floor price. This fundraising ended on June 19 and involved participation from institutional investors, following SEBI regulations. The funds are expected to support Biocon's ongoing growth and expansion.

United Spirits

United Spirits, a part of global liquor company Diageo, has announced that it will acquire NAO Spirits—the makers of Greater Than and Hapusa gins. The total enterprise value of the deal is ₹130 crore. The acquisition includes both the purchase of shares from existing shareholders and the subscription to new equity, thereby strengthening United Spirits’ presence in the premium gin category.

NATCO Pharma

NATCO Pharma’s Kothur manufacturing unit was inspected by the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) from June 9 to June 19. After the inspection, the USFDA issued seven Form 483 observations, which means there were certain compliance issues found. However, NATCO has not yet revealed the specific details of the observations.

HCL Technologies

HCL Technologies has signed a new agreement with Just Energy, a US-based energy retailer. The project involves improving customer services by using Generative AI (GenAI) and Digital Process Outsourcing (DPO) tools. This move supports HCL’s strategy to grow in the AI and digital solutions space, especially in the energy sector.

Ashoka Buildcon

Ashoka Buildcon has won a new contract worth ₹562 crore from the Government of Guyana. The project is the East Bank–East Coast Road Linkage (Phase 2). The construction will take about 18 months, and this contract marks another key international infrastructure project for Ashoka Buildcon.

ITD Cementation

ITD Cementation India has announced two major construction contracts with a combined value of ₹960 crore. One of the projects involves work at Trivandrum International Airport, and the other includes constructing a multi-storey commercial building in Kolkata. The company has not disclosed the names of the clients for these projects.

Brigade Enterprises

Brigade Enterprises’ coworking and office space brand, BuzzWorks, has leased out 24,000 square feet of office space to Infor India. This space is located at the company’s Auro Orbit centre in HITEC City, Hyderabad. The deal reflects the growing demand for premium office space in India’s IT hubs.
