📝 Wrap
Market Summary — 30 Sept 2026
Markets closed cautious as NIFTY 50 shed 96 points to end at 22,620, with losers outnumbering gainers 32 to 17. The mood was defensive despite select pockets of strength.
Private banks saved the day. Kotak Bank jumped ₹11 to ₹417 and ICICI Bank rose ₹29.5 to ₹1,321.7, together contributing heavily to index damage control. This follows renewed chatter of RBI easing growth restrictions on Kotak, while ICICI continues to grab market share in retail loans. Both stocks saw strong turnover above ₹1,300 Cr each.
Healthcare took a beating. Apollo Hospitals crashed ₹493.5 (-5.7%) to ₹8,165.5, and Max Healthcare fell ₹52.3 (-5.33%) to ₹929.8. The sector led losses at -2.57% amid profit-booking after recent highs and regulatory noise on drug pricing. Sun Pharma and Nestlé also joined the selloff.
Clear rotation playing out: money moved from defensives (healthcare, FMCG) into financials and rate-sensitive realty (+1.62%). Media topped sectors at +2.74% but on thin participation.
