  Zerodha Fund House launches Zerodha Arbitrage Fund, targeting low-risk, tax-efficient investments for surplus cash

  Zerodha Fund House Launches Zerodha Arbitrage Fund

  Zerodha Fund House today announced the launch of the Zerodha Arbitrage Fund, an open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities, that may be ideal for investors looking to park surplus cash in a tax-efficient, relatively low-volatility manner.

  Investors in higher tax brackets may consider this fund since it has relatively low-risk while with the lower taxation (LTCG, STCG) applicable to equity funds.

  The fund invests in a mix of equity and equity derivatives (min. 65%) and debt instruments. Rather than depending on markets rising or falling, the strategy seeks to capture temporary price differences between a stock and its corresponding derivative contract. When these pricing gaps aren’t available, the fund temporarily parks the money in short-term debt instruments in accordance with the investment strategy.

  With a minimum investment of ₹5,000, the fund may be suitable for conservative investors looking to park surplus money for a horizon of a few months.

  Gold holds firm near two-month high as cooling US inflation lifts rate-cut hopes

  Renisha Chainani, chief research officer at Augmont, writes Gold Holds Firm, Eyes $4500 as Inflation Cools

  •\u0009Demand and Supply – Gold held steady near its highest level in more than two months, as traders took a pause following a rally driven by cooling U.S. inflation. Attention has now shifted to an upcoming producer price report, which could offer further clues on the prospects of near-term Federal Reserve rate hikes. Traders are currently pricing in roughly a 40% chance of a rate hike at the Fed’s September meeting, down from 46% before the inflation data was released.

  •\u0009Geopolitical Tensions – President Donald Trump said the United States has “total control over the Strait of Hormuz,” even as negotiations over the key waterway remain deadlocked. His increasingly confrontational tone has deepened doubts over whether an agreement to reopen the critical shipping route can be reached anytime soon.

  •\u0009Macro-Economic Signals – Data released Wednesday showed that US consumer inflation slowed for a second consecutive month, easing to 3.4% in July while rising just 0.1% from the previous month. Investors are now awaiting producer inflation data due later in the global session for further clues on where price pressures are headed.

  Black Box secured Data Centre Order from New Tier-1 U.S. Hyperscaler

  Black Box Limited (BSE: 500463 | NSE: BBOX), a leading provider of digital infrastructure solutions, today announced that it has secured a US$131 million (~₹1,240 crore) order with a new U.S.-based global Tier-1 hyperscaler for a major data centre project in the U.S.

  The win marks a significant breakthrough for Black Box in the U.S. hyperscaler market, adding a net-new marquee customer to its growing hyperscaler portfolio. It builds on the Company’s existing work with leading global hyperscalers and further strengthens the data centre industry as a key growth engine for Black Box. 

  The engagement was secured following a sustained and focused pursuit of the opportunity, supported by strong leadership engagement, deep domain expertise and a differentiated value proposition. Black Box demonstrated its ability to support the customer’s large-scale infrastructure requirements through detailed planning and a phased delivery approach, providing a clear roadmap for execution at scale.

  Under the engagement, Black Box will deliver work at a key location in the U.S. over approximately a three-year period, with further expansion expected in due course.

  Mr. Sanjeev Verma, Whole-time Director & Chief Executive Officer, said, “This is a landmark win for Black Box and an important step forward in our hyperscaler growth journey. Securing a major engagement with a new Tier-1 global hyperscaler reflects the strength of our capabilities, our customer-focused approach and the confidence that leading technology companies are placing in Black Box to execute complex, mission-critical data centre infrastructure at scale.

  Our focus now is firmly on execution and delivering to the highest standards. We believe successful delivery of this engagement can create a strong foundation for expanding our relationship with this customer over time, while further strengthening Black Box’s position in the global hyperscaler ecosystem.”

  Black Box delivers highest ever Quarterly Revenue with Robust Order Bookings and Order Backlog

  Black Box Limited (BSE: 500463 | NSE: BBOX), a leading provider of digital infrastructure solutions, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

  Black Box is entering a new phase of scale, supported by a stronger business foundation, deeper global customer relationships and growing participation in the infrastructure powering the AI economy. Following several years of transformation, the Company has strengthened its financial position, execution capabilities and global delivery platform, positioning it to pursue larger, more complex and mission-critical digital infrastructure programs.

  The addressable opportunity is substantial. Across data centres, enterprise networking, connectivity infrastructure, cybersecurity, managed services and digital workplace solutions, Black Box participates in an estimated US$250–300 billion global market. A significant share of this opportunity is concentrated in the United States, where the Company has an established operating presence and deep relationships with some of the world’s largest enterprises.

  With a growing order book and backlog, experienced leadership, strong industry tailwinds and proven capabilities in executing large-scale global projects, the Company is well positioned to capture a larger share of this market. This provides a credible pathway towards its targeted revenue goal of US$2 billion by FY30.

  Hyperscale infrastructure is emerging as a powerful new growth engine for the Company.

  During the quarter, Black Box added a new global hyperscaler through a US$131 million (~₹1,240 crore) order, while continuing to expand its relationship with an existing hyperscaler. The Company is also the only India-origin, AI-led digital infrastructure solutions provider currently executing gigawatt-scale data centre programs demonstrating the depth, scale and execution capabilities it has built to participate in the accelerating global AI infrastructure build-out.

  The focus now is on converting this strong market position into sustained, profitable growth: deepening relationships across approximately 300 strategic enterprise accounts, increasing participation in larger multi-year programs and building the execution capacity required to capture a greater share of the opportunity.

  A Larger, Longer-Duration and Higher-Quality Order Book

  New orders reached approximately US$339 million (₹3,208 crore) during the quarter, lifting the order backlog to an all-time high of approximately US$949 million (₹8,986 crore), up 83% YoY.

  The backlog reflects a step-change in the scale and quality of the business. Compared with a historical range of approximately US$450–500 million, backlog has nearly doubled, supported by increasing participation in large, multi-year and mission-critical programs. Project-led backlog grew approximately 50% QoQ, with longer-duration engagements providing 24–36 months of revenue visibility.

  Order momentum is expected to strengthen through FY27. Black Box expects US$1.3–1.5 billion of order bookings, representing growth of approximately 32–45% over FY26, and expects to exit FY27 with an order backlog of US$1.3–1.4 billion, an increase of approximately 65–75% YoY. This expanding order base provides a durable platform for the Company’s next phase of growth.

  Momentum Extends Across a Blue-Chip Customer Base

  Demand remained broad-based beyond hyperscalers, with financial services, healthcare, public services and retail contributing approximately US$80 million (~₹757 crore) to order bookings during the quarter.

  Key wins included a large U.S. connectivity infrastructure and networking engagement with one of the world’s largest chip manufacturers; a workplace solutions and connectivity engagement with a leading discount retailer; and significant orders from a U.S. state government and a leading healthcare provider.

  The breadth of these wins reinforces Black Box’s position in mission-critical infrastructure environments and highlights the opportunity to deepen relationships and expand share of wallet across its strategic customer base.

  Building a Scalable Execution Advantage

  As digital infrastructure programs increase in size and complexity, the ability to mobilize experienced, skilled resources at scale is becoming a critical competitive differentiator.

  Black Box is strengthening its leadership, sales, engineering and delivery capabilities and plans to hire nearly 3,000 professionals by FY30, primarily in the U.S. This investment is intended to expand delivery capacity, support larger and more complex programs, and create the execution engine required for the Company’s next phase of growth.

  Mr. Sanjeev Verma, Whole-time Director & Chief Executive Officer , said, “We have entered FY27 with strong momentum, delivering our highest-ever quarterly revenue of ₹1,719 crore, up 24% YoY, driven by improved execution of our expanding backlog and the contribution from our recently acquired Brazilian business, 2S. Strong order bookings of US$339 million lifted our backlog to an all-time high of US$949 million, providing greater visibility and a strong foundation for sustained growth.

  Black Box today operates from a fundamentally stronger platform. Our growing participation in AI-led digital infrastructure, expanding hyperscaler relationships and deep presence across approximately 300 strategic enterprise accounts give us significant headroom to scale. Our priority is to convert this opportunity into disciplined, profitable growth as we build towards our ambition of becoming a US$2 billion revenue company by FY30.”

  Mr. Deepak Kumar Bansal, Executive Director and Global CFO , said, “Q1 demonstrates the improving financial quality of the business, with EBITDA growth outpacing revenue growth and margins expanding by 90 bps. The increasing scale, quality and duration of our order book create a stronger base for growth and enhance revenue visibility.

  Our focus remains on translating this momentum into stronger cash flows and returns through operating leverage, disciplined working capital management and prudent capital allocation, while selectively investing in capabilities that can create sustainable long-term value.”

  Gold, silver remain supported as softer US inflation could boost bullion sentiment: Aspect Bullion

  Darshan Desai, CEO, Aspect Bullion & Refinery

  “Gold and silver continue to remain firmly supported, with the bullion market now closely tracking upcoming US inflation data for further direction. From an industry perspective, the resilience in precious metals reflects continued investor interest in bullion amid evolving global economic conditions and uncertainty. A softer inflation reading could further support gold by strengthening expectations of a more accommodative interest-rate environment, while a stronger-than-expected reading may lead to some short-term profit-booking and volatility.

  We continue to see bullion retaining its importance as a store of value and a means of portfolio diversification. While prices remain elevated and short-term movements are likely to be driven by global macroeconomic cues, the underlying sentiment towards physical gold and silver remains constructive.”

  Buy, TP Rs 2910 from Rs3575

  Revenue was inline while EBITDA/PAT missed JEFe by 8%/15% respectively.

  CSM exports were impacted by lower volume and continued pricing pressures.

  Pharma weakness continued with limited visibility on growth.

  Management cut growth guidance for FY27 to low-single-digit from high-single-digit

  Cut FY27/28E EPS 12%/11% respectively.

  HSBC on PI Ind

  Hold, TP cut to Rs 2720

  1QFY27 earnings another miss as exports business struggles; higher costs & lower realizations pressure margins

  Zone of uncertainty: core businesses remain muted & new businesses take time to scale up needing investments

  Stock has corrected 24% over last six months & currently trading at 28x FY28e EPS

  This compares to one year forward 10-year mean PE multiple of 32x

  CITI on PI Ind

  Sell, TP Rs 2375

  1Q EBITDA was down 29% yoy (up ~9% qoq) on lower Agro CSM exports (down 13% yoy) & weaker EBITDA margins (21.6% vs 21.5% in 4Q and 27.3% in 1QFY26).

  Higher EBITDA loss in pharma + global biologicals (~20% of standalone EBITDA vs~12% in FY26) also hurt.

  While PI continues to invest in diversifying across own agchems, pharma, electronic chemicals, near-term performance should be driven by impact of generic competition on their largest product.

  With current year pyroxasulfone sales already front ended and generic competition likely to intensify from next year (expiry of process and some formulation patents in US), await clarity

• August 13, 2026 10:28

  Morgan Stanley on Paint Sector  

  Increased competitive intensity across players continues 

  Opus clearly highlighting the focus on Rs 10000 cr revenue target by FY28 and 50%+ growth for FY27 

  Birla Opus posted revenue at Rs 1660 cr a 64% YoY, 17% QoQ revenue growth vs 16% QoQ standalone revenue growth for Asian Paints 

  Opus gained 30 bps market share sequentially and including putty, their market share is nearing early-teens 

  Dulux too re-emphasized the ambition of gaining the no.3 spot and no.1 spot in terms of market share in the decorative and industrial space respectively

• August 13, 2026 10:28

  Brokerages on Grasim

  Jefferies on Grasim

  Buy, TP Raised to Rs 3910 from Rs3600

  Raise FY27/FY28 EBITDA by 30%/7% after a sharp 1Q beat, with all segments outperforming.

  1Q highlighted the rising contribution of Standal Biz. VSF & Chemicals rebounded on pricing tailwinds, while new biz continue to scale, with Paints guiding for 50% YoY growth in FY27 & FY28 targets intact.

  B2B e-commerce is set to turn profitable by FY27-end

  Believe a stronger standalone profile will narrow Grasim’s holdco discount

  CITI on Grasim

  Buy, TP Rs 3850 from Rs3600

  1Q EBITDA rose 2.5x/76% qoq - Paints loss at Rs1.4bn vs. Rs2.9bn in 4Q; VSF Rs6.3bn vs. Rs5.9bn; Chemicals Rs4.9bn vs. Rs3bn.

  Paints revenue market share rose 30bps qoq.

  Key highlights:

  (1)Paints - overall price hikes ~8.8% in 1Q, some impact will flow through into 2Q. EBITDA rose qoq - lower cost inventory, lower advertising spends. Advertising spends will rise during strong periods.

  (2)Birla Pivot: Annualized revenue run-rate Rs100bn+, breakeven by FY27 exit.

  (3) Royalty: Grasim will pay royalty of 0.25% of standalone revenue to Birla Group Holdings starting June26, capped at Rs2.3bn.

  (4) Contribution to AB Renewables’ acquisition: sub Rs10bn, June26 standalone net debt Rs99bn, net D/EBITDA 4.2x.

  (5) VSF: Prices resilient globally. (6) Chemicals: ME crisis - uncertainty around profitability.

  Morgan Stanley on Grasim

  Target ₹4000 (Earlier Target ₹3900)

  Recommendation: Overweight 

  Strong Quarter 

  EBITDA beat was led by chemicals and paints 

  Birla Pivot and paints continue to ramp up quickly 

  With continued execution, see a case for re-rating over the next 12 months and compounding over the medium term 

  Grasim remains Top Pick

• August 13, 2026 10:27

  Brokerages on Astral

  CLSA on Astral

  Hold, TP Rs 1490

  Resilient demand and channel inventory restocking has led to a strong 2Q start for Astral’s piping business (40% growth in July).

  1Q was largely in line with flat volume growth (versus the industry down 10% YoY) driven by sharp channel destocking due to volatile PVC prices.

  Its Ebitda margin improved for piping while adhesives was impacted by high-cost inventory (it guided for a recovery over subsequent quarters).

  Guidance was maintained across segments, which we think is largely achievable.

  CITI on Astral

  Buy, TP Rs 1900

  1Q EBITDA was up 25% yoy, driven by both plumbing and adhesives segments.

  While plumbing volumes were impacted by volatility in PVC prices in 1Q, they have sharply recovered in July – leading to a double-digit volume growth in first 4.5 months of FY27.

  Mgmt remains confident of achieving their guidance for 10-15% volume growth and an additional 10% value growth from the plumbing segment in FY27.

  CPVC backward integration project remains on track for 4QFY27 – should support margin expansion and market share gains in FY28.

  UBS on Astral

  Target ₹1950

  Recommendation: Accumulate Continues to gain market share 

  Outperforms peers despite flat volumes; Q2 trends encouraging 

  Believe Astral’s decentralized manufacturing strategy and favourable PVC prices to aid in market share gain and superior profitability

• August 13, 2026 10:27

  Brokerages on Lenskart

  HSBC on Lenskart

  Hold, TP Rs 575

  8% beat on consensus EBITDA driven by International, India in line; India SSSG at 18% vs 24% in Q4FY26

  India estimates unchanged, international performance drives upgrade in overall estimates: 6%/5% for FY27/FY28 EBITDA

  Premium multiples of 45x/30x FY30 EV/EBITDA factor potential

  Jefferies on Lenskart

  Buy, TP raised to Rs 680 from Rs600

  1QFY27 continues to build the story, with strong growth & sharp margin expansion.

  Market creation remains a top priority, with supply, rather than demand, being a key constraint in India, evidenced by c70k daily eye tests

  Co now plays at bottom end with a fully loaded Rs500 product, while a clear premiumization trend is visible.

  Margin improvement in international should put a key investor concern to rest.

  Meller could be the Ray-Ban of future!

  CITI on Lenskart

  Neutral, TP Rs 650 from Rs600

  Another strong quarter on growth & profitability in India & International (broadly in line with Citi est).

  SSG in India remained strong at 18.3% (although moderated vs 24.2%/27.8% in 4Q/3Q).

  EBITDA margins - both India and International witnessed improvement led by GM expansion (higher ASP/product mix, in-house manufacturing) along with operating leverage (SSG-driven)

  Expect growth momentum to remain strong as Lenskart continues to straddle across price points to accelerate store expansion, customer acquisition and conversion

  Will watch for growth momentum in 2H given the high base.

  Lenskart execution remains strong on all parameters: store expansion, SSG and profitability/margins (India and International).

  However, believe current valuations are already pricing in growth & margin improvement trajectory & hence limit upside potential

  Macquarie on Lenskart

  Target ₹675 (Earlier Target ₹625)

  Recommendation: Outperform 

  Q1: India in line, international beat 

  In-line India performance supplemented by stronger international margin expansion 

  Like strong volume growth, ongoing premiumisation (lenses/frames), attractive Rs 500 entry-level offering, and potential for 10k+ stores in India 

  Stronger international margins drive a 4% EPS upgrade and 8% TP increase

  Morgan Stanley on Lenskart

  Target ₹666

  Recommendation: Overweight 

  Q1 beat: another quarter of strong performance 

  Beat driven more by international business 

  Management positive on the growth opportunity and business model strengths in India and the International markets 

  Strong performance, optimistic management commentary, and rise in earnings estimates augur well for continued stock outperformance

  Goldman Sachs on Lenskart

  Target ₹715 (Earlier Target ₹625)

  Recommendation: Accumulate 

  Q1FY27: Growth and margin flywheel continues to deliver; 

  International — large margin expansion as SSSG stays elevated 

  India business — volume led revenue growth, operating leverage led margin expansion 

  Premiumisation a new growth vector

  PAT ahead on delivery of a higher numbers of engines, helicopters & treasury income, while margins expanded.

  Its cash pile rose to US$4.9bn, up 21% YoY, on large advances and a conservative accounting policy of parking economic value add in balance sheet until delivery of platforms

  See start of Mk 1A deliveries (2H) & visibility on the engine production deal as key catalysts.

  HAL is cheapest pure-play defence stock despite a sector-leading position

  CITI on HAL

  Buy, TP Rs 5550

  Q1 PAT beat estimates

  Revenue at Rs55.1bn grew 14% YoY & 4% ahead of Citi/consensus.

  EBITDA at Rs15.3bn grew 19%YoY, 6% ahead of Citi est.

  PAT at Rs15.9bn grew 11%YoY and was 4%/6% ahead of Citi/consensus.

  Importantly, growth outperformance has come even in absence of Tejas LCA (whose revenue will be recognized only upon handover) delivery commencement highlighting resilience in HAL’s broader business

  See a) clear scope for re-rating once LCA deliveries commence, which could lift a long standing overhang;

  b) 1Q margins (YoY expansion in a quarter when various other capital goods companies saw contraction) as a positive;

  c) next 2 years’ order pipeline being led by platforms where execution can be faster.

  Kotak on Hindustan Aeronautics

  Target ₹5305 (Earlier Target ₹4810)

  Recommendation: Add 

  Steady quarter; Tejas MK1A resolution remains key catalyst 

  Q1FY27: Steady execution aided by better-than-expected margins 

  Tejas MK1A approval and deliveries remain critical milestones 

  Order pipeline remains robust with Rs 90000 cr near-term prospect pipeline

  JPMorgan on HAL

  CV outlook brighter now; raised FY27F MHCV demand growth to 8% y-y (from 5%)

  EVs: Strong growth as TCO is reaching earlier, EV penetration has touched 10% in SCVs

  Exports: Indonesia order should be delivered over FY27-28E

  Costs: There is cost pressure ahead and price hike of 2.5% was taken in July. There are some supply constraints due to strong demand

  IVECO: Deal to close by early Nov-2026E.

  CLSA on Tata Motors CV

  O-P, TP Rs 596

  1Q Ebitda margin of 11.3% (-76bps YoY), higher than consensus by c.50bps.

  TMCV highlighted bulk of margin decline was driven by commodity inflation (340bp YoY negative impact), however, this was partially offset by operating leverage and price hikes (140bps YoY positive impact).

  While commodity costs remain inflationary, TMCV expects impact to be mitigated through price action (2.5% in July), along with ongoing cost reduction measures.

  On demand front, TMCV highlighted underlying momentum remains healthy and it expects commercial vehicle (CV) industry demand to remain robust, with 2QFY27 volume likely to deliver double-digit growth.

  Nifty likely to open lower near 24,380; 24,300 key support, traders advised caution: Thincredblu Securities

  Gaurav Udani, Founder - Thincredblu Securities 

  “Nifty is expected to open lower around 24,380, down nearly 50 points, indicating a cautious start after the recent volatility.

  The index is approaching an important support zone, and buyers need to be cautious at current levels. 24,300–24,400 will act as the immediate support range, while 24,700–24,800 remains the key resistance zone.

  A sustained break below 24,300 could increase selling pressure and lead to further profit booking, while a recovery above 24,500 would improve the short-term outlook.

  Traders should avoid aggressive buying at the open and wait for confirmation around key support levels. For now, a cautious buy-on-dips approach is preferable, with strict risk management.”

  Daily Quote from CoinSwitch

  BTC is steadying around $64,000–$64,200 after a choppy CPI-day session, having reclaimed the $64,000 handle following a dip to an intraday low near $63,400. Yesterday’s July inflation print landed largely in line — headline CPI eased to 3.4% year-on-year (from 3.5%), with the monthly gain at 0.1% and core cooling to 2.5% — an outcome analysts framed as “buying the Fed time, not conviction.” The in-line read preserved existing September expectations, with prediction markets now pricing roughly a 67% chance of no rate change at the next FOMC meeting, so crypto’s initial relief bounce has faded into cautious consolidation rather than a decisive breakout. Underlying flows remain thin and mixed: spot BTC ETFs saw only modest net inflows (around $7.8M Tuesday, led by BlackRock’s IBIT), leaving price hemmed inside the familiar summer range. ETH is holding in the low-$1,900s, still capped well below the $2,000 psychological level. Near-term support sits at $63,400–$63,600, with a break lower exposing the $62,000–$63,000 zone. On the upside, the first hurdle is the $65,000–$65,500 supply shelf; a sustained move above it would be needed to shift structure, with $68,300 the level bulls must clear to invalidate the current range. Sentiment stays neutral-to-cautious as markets pivot from CPI toward the broader Fed policy path and lingering geopolitical noise. Said CoinSwitch Markets Desk

  Bitcoin remains range-bound near $63,400 as weak demand, cooling ETF flows limit breakout prospects: Giottus

  Market analysis by Vikram Subburaj, CEO, Giottus.com

  August 13, 2026

  Bitcoin traded near $63,400 on Thursday morning, down about 0.6% over 24 hours, despite softer US inflation data. The muted response suggests that improving macro conditions have not yet translated into strong crypto demand. Immediate support is around $63,000-$63,250, followed by $62,000. Resistance lies near $64,400-$64,500, with $66,000 remaining the stronger short-term ceiling.

  On-chain conditions explain some of this caution. Bitcoin’s Median Realized Price stands near $63,000. The short-term holder cost basis is around $68,700. This leaves many recent buyers below their average acquisition price. Spot Bitcoin volume measured in BTC has fallen to its lowest level since 2019. Sellers appear increasingly exhausted. However, fresh buying demand remains limited. Bitcoin remains caught between strong cost-basis support and insufficient demand for a breakout.

  US spot Bitcoin ETF flows remain positive for August overall but have cooled. Funds attracted $865.3 million across five consecutive sessions from August 3-7, before recording a $144.6 million outflow on August 10. August 11 returned to a modest $7.8 million inflow. 

  Large-cap altcoins were mostly weaker. Ethereum traded near $1,877, down about 0.4%, BNB fell 1.3% to $610, XRP declined 2% to $1.00, and Solana lost 1.2% to $75.60. TRON was the exception, gaining about 0.4% to $0.336.

  July US CPI rose 3.4% annually, while core inflation eased to 2.5%. Markets subsequently reduced the probability of a September Federal Reserve rate increase to about 38%-40%. Attention now turns to Thursday’s US Producer Price Index. Brent crude near $88 remains an inflation risk.

  Our advice: Investors should avoid chasing short-lived rallies while Bitcoin remains below $64,500-$66,000. Staggered accumulation, limited leverage and disciplined position sizing remain preferable until stronger ETF and spot demand confirm the recovery.

  India’s July CPI Hits 19-Month High, Core Remains Contained, RBI to Stay Vigilant

  Food Pressures Push Headline Inflation to a 19-Month High

  India’s consumer price inflation accelerated to 4.45% YoY in July , reaching a 19-month high , from 4.38% in June. The increase was primarily driven by food prices, with Food & Beverage inflation rising to 5.24% , reinforcing food as an important contributor to the increase in headline inflation. Inflation remained elevated in fish and other seafood (17.86%), meat and fish (15.30%), fruits and nuts (8.34%), oils and fats (8.54%) and prepared foods (8.96%) . In contrast, vegetable inflation remained mixed, with several key vegetables, including tomato, potato and lady’s finger, remaining in deflation, while inflation in onion and garlic surged to 22.6% and 35.4% , respectively. This suggests that the current food inflation shock remains concentrated in selected food categories rather than representing a broad-based acceleration across the entire food basket.

  Second-Round Effects Are Emerging in Services, But Core Inflation Remains Relatively Contained

  The impact of higher energy and transportation costs is increasingly visible beyond the food basket. Restaurant and Accommodation Services inflation accelerated to 7.72% , from 6.91% in June, suggesting that higher fuel, transportation and operating costs are gradually being passed through to consumers. This represents an important second-round channel that warrants monitoring. At the same time, broader underlying inflation remains relatively contained. Core Inflation ex. Food & Beverages and Fuel & Light was around 3.86%. Core CPI excluding precious metals was roughly 2.96% in July , slightly higher than the previous month’s reading but still contained.

  Supply-Side Inflation Delays, But Does Not Eliminate, Rate Hikes

  At the August MPC meeting, the RBI unanimously kept the repo rate unchanged at 5.25% and retained its neutral stance. At the same time, the RBI lowered its FY27 CPI inflation forecast to 5.0% from 5.1% , while raising its FY27 real GDP growth forecast to 6.7% from 6.6% , reflecting greater confidence in the growth outlook amid the recent encouraging trend in high-frequency indicators. The policy therefore suggests that the bar for rate hikes has risen, particularly as the RBI views current inflation pressures as being driven largely by food and fuel rather than by a broad-based demand shock. Any further policy tightening is likely to remain contingent on a sustained rise in energy prices or evidence of broader, demand-driven inflationary pressures, rather than the current supply-led increase in headline inflation. The principal upside risk remains El Niño and adverse weather conditions . A disruption to agricultural production could sustain food-price pressures, while crude prices are now expected to average closer to US$85/bbl . That said, while consensus expects the central bank to remain on hold through FY27, we continue to expect the RBI to deliver at least two rate hikes , amounting to a cumulative 50bps over the next 12 months , with possibly one hike before the end of FY27. Such a move would take the repo rate to approximately 5.75%, enabling the RBI to maintain a positive real policy rate of at least 75bps .

  Goldman Sachs expands crypto footprint with $2.25 billion Neos deal as Bitcoin remains range-bound

  Harish Vatnani, Head of Trade, ZebPay

  “Goldman Sachs is expanding its crypto footprint with the planned acquisition of Neos Investments for up to $2.25 billion in cash and equity. The deal would bring three crypto options-income ETFs — BTCI, XBCI and NEHI — under Goldman Sachs Asset Management, strengthening its exposure to the growing crypto investment-products market. 

  Meanwhile, Bitcoin remains stuck in the $62,000–$66,000 range, with steady ETF demand being offset by selling from miners and corporate holders. The latest U.S. inflation data offered little clarity, with July inflation at 3.4% and core inflation easing to 2.5%, both broadly in line with expectations. 

  The mixed data leaves the Fed’s next move uncertain. Weak employment supports a more cautious approach, while inflation remains above target and three policymakers backed a rate hike at the July meeting. With neither bulls nor bears gaining a clear advantage, Bitcoin’s next major move could depend on upcoming economic data and changing expectations around Fed policy.”

  Softer US CPI supports crypto risk appetite, but Bitcoin, Ethereum face key resistance levels

  Nischal Shetty, Founder, WazirX

  “Ahead of the US CPI release, markets expected headline inflation to rise just 0.1% in July and core CPI by 0.2%. A hotter 0.3 - 0.4% core reading could have increased the likelihood of a September Fed rate hike, tightening financial conditions and pressuring crypto. 

  Instead, CPI matched expectations at 0.1%, while core CPI rose 0.2%, with annual rates at 3.4% and 2.5%, respectively. The contained inflation reading has reduced expectations for a September hike, supporting liquidity and risk appetite, which is a positive development for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market.

  Wall Street has responded positively to the softer CPI environment. Overall US markets signal improving risk appetite, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 advancing. The Dow remained broadly flat, and gold was stable. Oil declined 1.38%, potentially easing future inflation pressures. 

  BTC trades near $63,384, sitting around its $63,379 50-day SMA, while most shorter moving averages cluster above $64,000 and signal resistance; $63,200 - $63,400 is therefore an important support zone, with $64,000 - $64,550 being the immediate resistance. ETH near $1,876 shows support at around $1,863 - $1,870, while the $1,881 - $1,899 range creates overhead resistance. 

  With reduced expectations of a September Fed hike, the backdrop is supportive for crypto, although BTC and ETH need an additional catalyst for stronger momentum.

  The liquidation breakdown shows $165.13 million in leveraged crypto positions liquidated over the past 24 hours, split between $78.01 million in longs and $87.11 million in shorts. 

  BTC futures traders may watch $63K - $62.5K as key downside levels, while $64.5K marks near-term resistance. A sustained move higher could bring the $65.5K - $66K zone into focus for market participants. For ETH futures, $1,870 remains a key level to monitor, with $1,850 - $1,815 forming lower support zones. On the upside, $1,925 is key resistance, followed by $1,960 - $2,000 if momentum strengthens.”

Embassy REIT will be the only REIT in the Nifty Midcap 150 under the revised index composition. The changes will become effective from September 30, 2026.

  The inclusion strengthens Embassy REIT’s presence across key market benchmarks, broadens its visibility across the investment universe and creates the potential for greater participation from institutional and passive investors. With the Nifty Midcap 150 already tracked by multiple ETFs and index funds in India, the inclusion is particularly relevant from an investor-access perspective.

  Amit Shetty, Chief Executive Officer of Embassy REIT, said,

  “We are pleased to be included in the Nifty 500 and, notably, as the only REIT in the Nifty Midcap 150, alongside several other key NSE indices. This is a significant moment for Embassy REIT and for the continued evolution of India’s listed REIT market. Index inclusion brings REITs further into the mainstream of India’s capital markets, enabling access to a broader pool of investors. As India’s first listed REIT, we are proud to have played a pioneering role in the growth of the asset class and remain focused on delivering sustained performance and long-term value for our unitholders.

  In addition to the Nifty 500 and Nifty Midcap 150, Embassy REIT will be included in the Nifty Next 100, Nifty LargeMidcap 250, Nifty MidSmallcap 400 and Nifty Total Market. Its inclusion in the Nifty 500 will also extend to the Nifty500 Equal Weight, Nifty500 Multicap 50:25:25 and Nifty500 LargeMidSmall Equal-Cap Weighted indices.

  One Point One Solutions Q1 FY27 revenue surges 129% to ₹158 crore, EBITDA rises 92%

  One Point One Solutions Limited (NSE: ONEPOINT | BSE: 544748) a global, AI-powered customer experience and enterprise operations company, announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.The Company reported revenue from operations of ₹158.32 crore for Q1 FY27, compared with ₹69.01 crore in Q1 FY26 a growth of 129.4% year-on-year and 64.6% quarter-on-quarter. Profit for the period stood at ₹16.31 crore, up 72.8% from ₹9.44 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. EBITDA for the quarter was ₹39.38 crore, up 91.5% year-on-year, at a margin of 24.9%. Q1 FY27 is the first full reporting period to reflect the Company’s dual growth engines operating at scale: the global human services engine, now strengthened by the full-quarter consolidation of Netcom, the Company’s Latin America acquisition and the agentic AI engine, powered by ResolX, a 1Point1 company, through its Resolution-as-a-Service (RaaS) model. As automation increases, the Company’s revenue mix shifts toward higher-margin AI, orchestration and outcome-linked models, while human expertise moves toward more complex, judgment-led work.

  EBITDA margin for the quarter reflects the consolidation of Netcom’s delivery mix, while finance costs of

  ₹8.12 crore (Q1 FY26: ₹1.85 crore) primarily reflect acquisition-related borrowings. Prior-period figures are not directly comparable, as Q1 FY27 is the first quarter to include Netcom for the full period.

  Oil drops on lower demand forecasts despite deadlock in US-Iran talks

  Oil prices fell more than $1 on Thursday as forecasters lowered global oil demand projections for 2026 because of the disruptions from the ‌U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, though the supply constraints from the conflict provided a floor for the market.

  MNCL Research – La Opala – 1QFY27 First Cut: Revenue in line; PAT ahead of estimates

  CMP: Rs 190 | TP: Rs 225 (UR) | Mcap: Rs 21.0bn | Rating: BUY (UR)

  Revenue : La Opala reported revenue growth of 9.3% YoY to Rs 714mn (MNCL Est- Rs 698mn), broadly in line with our estimates. While the growth comes on a favourable base. We believe the recovery was largely driven by the domestic business (~95% of sales), while exports (~5% of sales) continued to remain subdued.

  Margins: Gross margin stood at 90.9% versus 93.0% in Q1FY26. OPM contracted by 64bps YoY to 36.3%, primarily due to higher power costs (+92bps YoY). However, lower employee expenses (-145bps YoY) and other expenses (-90bps YoY) helped contain the overall margin decline.

  EBITDA : EBITDA grew 7.5% YoY to Rs 259mn (MNCL Est- Rs 256mn), broadly in line with our estimates.

  PAT : PAT increased 3.3% YoY to Rs 262mn, (MNCL Est. Rs 196mn).

  View : La Opala has started FY27 on an encouraging note, delivering high-single-digit revenue growth after an extended period of subdued performance. More importantly, the improvement appears to be driven by a recovery in the domestic business, indicating that the company’s dealer rationalisation and distribution restructuring initiatives are beginning to yield results. While exports remain weak , the return to topline growth is a key positive. We maintain our positive stance on the stock and will revisit our estimates shortly.

  MNCL Research: Scoda Tubes Ltd 1QFY27 first cut: Shutdown leads to muted performance

  CMP: Rs 134; TP: Rs 200 (under revision); Rating: BUY (under review)

  Revenue: Rs 1.24bn; +28% yoy and +0.6% qoq (vs MNCL estimate of Rs1.31bn). Shutdown of the piercing plant in April due to unavailability of gas and seasonal shortage of labor was the main reason of low revenue.

  Gross margins: 32.0% vs 29.2% yoy (MNCL estimate of 32.3%)

  EBITDA: Rs 160mn (miss to MNCL estimates); +12.5% yoy. EBITDA margins: 12.9%; -173bps yoy; Margin compression was mainly due to weak absorption of fixed cost, high gas cost post the restart of piercing plant and adverse product mix (higher proportion of pipes)

  PAT: Rs 53mn; -26.1% yoy

  Our view: 1QFY27 was a muted performance due to shutdown of the piercing plant and labor shortage. We expect revenue and margins to recover starting 2QFY27E and gradually improve with expected commissioning of the new welded plant in 2HFY27E. We will revisit our thesis and come out with an update note. Remain positive on Scoda Tubes.

  MNCL Research: FIEM Industries 1QFY27 results first cut: Strong revenue growth driven by premiumisation

  CMP: Rs 2,645; TP: Rs 2,790 (under revision); Rating: BUY (under review)

  Revenue: Rs 7.7bn; +19% yoy; +3% qoq, in line with our estimates.

  Gross margins: 38.3%; -70bps yoy; -92bps qoq, compression on yoy basis is due to RM cost pressure. 

  EBITDA: Rs 1bn; +16% yoy; -5% qoq; Margins: 13.4%; -18bps yoy and -121bps qoq; compression in margins is mainly due to RM cost pressure. 

  PAT: Rs 649mn; +13% yoy; -9% qoq

  Our view: FIEM reported another quarter of strong growth, supported by premiumization shift from halogen to LED and solid traction in underlying 2W vehicle production. The RM cost pressure has affected margins in 1QFY27, which is expected to iron out in upcoming quarters with price pass on from customers. We continue to remain positive on the premiumization thesis in 2W lighting and ramp up of 4W lighting at FIEM.
