Hyundai is India’s second-largest passenger vehicle maker, with a ~15% market share as of FY24. In the high-growth + high-margin utility vehicle segment, its volume share is 63% vs the industry average of 60%. Around 24% of its overall topline also comes from exports, which is a big growth channel.
DMart (-9%) was the top NSE 500 loser after its Q2 results missed all Street estimates! Increased competition + weak demand across retail categories resulted in its slowest topline growth in four years.

FYI - this IPO is purely an ‘Offer for Sale’, which means none of the proceeds will come into the company. PS - this does not mean Hyundai has no plans to invest in India; it actually has Rs 32,000-cr in capex lined up over the next decade.

FY24 Snapshot:
- Revenue: Rs 69,829 cr; +16% YoY
- EBITDA: Rs 9,133 cr; +21% YoY
- EBITDA Margin: 13.1% vs 12.5% YoY
- PAT: Rs 6,060 cr; +29% YoY
Big Picture: Let’s get the negatives out of the way. Yes, like all companies with foreign parents, it paid out a massive dividend in FY24 (Rs 10k cr +).
It also recently upped its royalty rate to 3.5% of sales and can increase it to 5% without shareholder approval. Finally yes, its proposed valuation is several times more than its parent. But that doesn’t mean it's all bad.
A 26-27x P/E is decent considering the Indian auto market’s growth outlook. Experts believe Hyundai’s future will depend on two big triggers. First, how quickly it can expand capacity.
It's currently in the process of going from 8.25 lakh to 11 lakh units. The second is its EV push. We’re getting the Creta EV in Q4FY25 and we’ll see whether it can take on the Tata Nexon.
Most experts say to subscribe for the long term and expect decent returns. Grey market data suggest its potential listing gains have crashed in recent days and may list only at a 3% premium.

Here are three companies that saw big movements today!
1) Wipro (+4%) was the top Nifty gainer after announcing a bonus issue. This is the first issue since 2019 when it gave one bonus share for every three shares held.
FYI - the firm’s ‘like-for-like growth, a key metric, came in at 5.5% YoY, the slowest in three years. Finally, increased operating expenses, which were aimed at improving service quality, also took a small hit on margins, which in turn limited bottom-line growth.
Here are its key stats:
Here are its key stats:
- Revenue: Rs 14,444 cr; +14% YoY (vs Est: Rs 14,597 cr)
- EBITDA: Rs 1,094 cr; +9% YoY
- EBITDA Margin: 7.6% vs 8% YoY
- PAT: Rs 649 cr; +6% YoY (vs Est: Rs 812 cr)
There’s a lot to unpack here. First off, Zomato’s Blinkit and Swiggy’s Instamart are hurting urban DMart stores. PS - we red-flagged this in our newsletter over a week ago.
Secondly, Avenue Supemart’s quick service (Dmart Ready) is eating into store revenue. That is OK in the long run but may cause some discomfort in the short run.
The real question is whether this is a structural hit to DMart’s long-term growth projections or if it's a temporary blip.

Experts are divided too. JP Morgan is the big bear, downgrading the stock and cutting its target price to Rs 4,700 p/sh vs Rs 5,400 p/sh earlier. For the strong believers, SEBI RA Vipul Ramaiya says the stock will see a “major support zone” near Rs 4,000 and you can add more at that mark with a 1-2 years investment horizon.

| Wipro Share Price |
Fun fact: Out of all public companies, Wipro has issued the MOST number of bonus shares to its shareholders in its history; a whopping 13 times since 1971. Either way, this is good news for shareholders waiting for the IT revival to really take off.
2) IEX cracked -6% intraday after power coupling fears once again raised their head!

FYI - Power Secretary Pankaj Agarwal said that work is “under progress” and the GOI remains committed to the same. Once again, we have no concrete details on a timeline, but this remains a huge overhang. Expect this to continue until we get clarity.
3) Bajaj Housing Finance fell after the one-month lock-in period for its shareholders ended. ICYMI - Nuvama had estimated that 12.6 cr shares (2% equity) became eligible for trading today, although it’s unclear how many of those shares were sold. More importantly, the stock is now officially below its listing price of Rs 150 p/sh.
