17 May 2014 11:12 PM GMT
As much as 278 stocks touched their 52-week high on the BSE with prominent names such as ACC, Adani Ports, Axis Bank, BHEL, Coal India, HDFC, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, IOB, ITC, L&T, Maruti Suzuki, NHPC, NMDC, ONGC, PNB, RIL, REC, SAIL, SBI, Tata Motors, Tata Power and Tata Steel.
‘This is an unprecedented election result and something that the markets are rightly rejoicing. A strong stable mandate was the need of the hour and it has been delivered even more decisively than the markets had hoped for,’ said Dinesh Thakkar, Chairman & Managing Director, Angel Broking.
There is well-grounded expectation that the new government will usher in strong pro-reform policies and kick-start the investment cycle, he noted.
‘The fall from the sharp rally is most likely due to investors locking in profits after the huge surge in the morning, although it could also have to do with the expectations investors have on how many seats the NDA will actually grab and whether the BJP will, on its own, be able to grab the required 272 seats on its own,’ said Raghu Kumar, Cofounder, RKSV.
