Top Announcements Anticipated Today
Tata Power
Tata Power Board is scheduled to meet today to approve Q4 and FY25 results. Investors are looking forward to revenue, profit, and dividend announcement if any. The company is expected to post revenue of ₹17,094 crore, EBITDA of ₹3,094 crore, and net profit of ₹1,026 crore with margins showing stable operational efficiency. Trading window is still closed for 48 hours from the announcement.
Eicher Motors
Eicher Motors, the manufacturer of Royal Enfield, is likely to report a healthy 21% year-on-year revenue growth to ₹5,072 crore, with net profit expected to grow 20.6% to ₹1,186 crore. The growth comes on the back of a 24% increase in volumes and price increases, although margins might face pressure from increased marketing spends and product mix shifts.
Lupin
The pharma major is expected to report revenue of ₹5,564 crore, EBITDA of ₹1,244 crore, and net profit of ₹735 crore. An EBITDA margin of 22.4% is expected by analysts, demonstrating high operational leverage and cost discipline in a competitive industry.

Muthoot Finance
The gold loan NBFC will report net interest income of ₹2,923 crore and net profit of ₹1,481 crore, which will act as a bellwether for the health of the overall lending industry.

What's Driving Market Sentiment
