Wheels, Walls and Wanderlust: Auto, Realty and Tourism Stocks Lead Gainers on Tuesday

Mumbai, June 30: Domestic equities traded on a mixed note on Tuesday, with select sectors standing out for broad-based gains even as the headline indices stayed largely rangebound. Of particular interest to traders and investors were the Nifty Auto Index (up 0.81% to 26,630.90), Nifty Realty Index (up 1.83% to 833.80) and the Nifty India Tourism Index (up 1.57% to 8,053.70). Strong buying interest in two-wheeler and passenger vehicle makers lifted the auto index, while developers across the residential and commercial real estate space drove realty higher.  

Hospitality, aviation and airport infrastructure names propelled the tourism index, as travel demand and festive-season optimism continued to support the sector. Together, these three sectors highlight where investor enthusiasm was concentrated at the start of Tuesday’s session. 

Wheels: Maruti Suzuki Leads Auto Index Higher 

The Nifty Auto Index traded 0.81% higher at 26,630.90 on Tuesday, with the bulk of its constituents ending the session in positive territory. Passenger vehicle and two-wheeler makers led the charge, even as Eicher Motors bucked the trend with a sharp decline. The index’s 365-day return of 11.55% underscores the sector’s resilience over the past year, even as the 30-day return of 1.11% points to a relatively flat near-term trend before Tuesday’s pickup in buying. 

• Maruti Suzuki (MARUTI): Index’ top gainer for the session, rising 5.56% to Rs 14,158, up from a previous close of Rs 13,412. Intraday high of Rs 14,162. 365-day return of 14.15%.

Walls: Realty Stocks Climb Across the Board 

The Nifty Realty index settled 1.83% higher at 833.80 with nearly every constituent ending the day in positive territory, the broadest sector rally of the session. Developers across both residential and commercial real estate gained ground, supported by steady demand and a constructive outlook on housing sales heading into the festive season.
