    CITI on Tech Mahindra

    Sell, TP Rs 1275

    Inline 4Q on EBIT vs Citi ests.

    Subcontractor expenses were +17% qoq (12% of revenue vs 10.7% qoq); OCF/EBITDA TTM at 68% vs 83% yoy.

    Forward looking indicators –

    (a) Commentary – Accelerating transition to an AI-led organization; on track to deliver FY27 commitments (above peer average growth & 15% EBIT margins)

    (b) Deal TCV (net new) +41% yoy on TTM basis

    (c) IT headcount -6.5% yoy; utilization running at close to highs

    TechM has been executing reasonably well in a tough industry environment; valuations at 19.2x FY27E consensus EPS (vs HCLT – 17.6x, TCS – 16.3x, Infosys – 16.5x) price in +ves.

    HSBC on Tech Mahindra

    Buy, TP Rs 1780

    Reported a good quarter & reiterated its FY27 targets of 15% EBIT margin and above-peer group revenue growth

    Telecom remains a strong vertical market for TechM, largely driven by its market share gains in European telcos

    Expect higher earnings growth in the medium to long term compared to larger peers

    Jefferies on Tech Mahindra

    U-P, TP Rs 1225

    Revenues/margins were in line, but profits missed estimates due to Fx losses

    Raise EPS by 2-3% on INR depreciation.

    Strong deal wins, improving outlook for comms vertical and improving margins will support 3.6%/13% CAGRs in cc revenues and EPS over FY26-29.

    TechM’s 16% premium to Infosys limits upsides in our view.

    Q4 results live: Trent | Brokerages view

    CITI on Trent

    Sell, TP raised to Rs 4100

    While revenue growth of 20% YoY was 2% above Citi est, EBITDA/PAT growth of 40%/30% was 12%/23% ahead of Citi est. Beat on EBITDA was primarily GM-led (+171bps YoY to 44.3% vs Citi est of 42.5%)

    Believe GM likely benefited from inventory provisioning reversal.

    Trent’s execution on operating cost remained strong: employee/rent expense (pre–IND AS) on per sq ft basis declined 19%/11% YoY.

    Board also approved proposal for Rs25bn equity fund raise (for store upgradation, new formats, supply chain, select investments in retail real estate for Star, etc).

    Bernstein on Trent

    O-P, TP Rs 5000

    Back on track with growth and margin beat again

    Rights issue doesn’t excite.

    This quarter (finally) delivered both – a return to 20% growth profile with margin expansion.

    Medium term, expect Trent to maintain a 20% growth trajectory with a stable 11% Operating EBIT margin.

    Near term, look for (i) Impact of macro conditions which can be potential headwinds – input cost inflation, supply disruptions, demand uncertainty ++ (ii) More details about rights issue & usage of proceeds.

    HSBC on Trent

    Buy, TP Rs 4830

    Beat on EBITDA (15% to consensus) driven by higher gross margins; LFL was low-single digits for fashion concepts

    Fund raise of INR25bn announced; await granularity, but Star business expansion is monitorable

    Key downside risk: a larger negative impact on store productivity than expect, especially from competition, which could drive further multiple compression.

    Jefferies on Trent

    Hold, TP Rs 4675

    Strong growth in 4Q helped by store expansion (esp. Zudio) and an improving LFL.

    Op leverage benefits along with self-help measures drove c40% YoY growth in Op EBITDA, well ahead of ours/consensus estimates.

    Mgmt commentary seemed cautious on near-term demand due to geopolitical uncertainty which may also feed into higher costs.

    Trent continues to stay focused on densifying key markets and expanding further into smaller cities.

    Morgan Stanley On Trent

    Recommendation Overweight, Target ₹4835 

    Key Points:Q4: Margin Beat

    Consumer sentiment was stable, although discretionary spending moderated owing to macro uncertainties

    Management saw early raw material inflation and supplier labour tightness, which was mitigated through calibrated sourcing

    Strategy remains intact to drive the share of revenues in proximate markets

Iron ore consolidates as investors weigh higher war-induced costs against rising supply

Iron ore consolidates as investors weigh higher war-induced costs against rising supply


Iron ore prices moved in a tight range on Thursday, as
investors weighed higher ​costs from the prolonged Iran war
against the prospects of ‌a growing supply of the key ​steelmaking
ingredient.

The most-traded iron ore contract on ⁠China’s Dalian
Commodity Exchange (DCE) traded little changed at
785.5 yuan ($115.05) a metric ton, as of 0212 GMT.

The benchmark May ‌iron ore on the Singapore
Exchange was 0.18% lower at $107.1 a ton, as of ‌0102 GMT. It hit
the highest level ‌since ⁠March 30 at $107.5 earlier in the
session.

The Singapore ⁠benchmark has stayed well above a key
psychological level of $100 for more than six weeks.
Iran said it had captured ​two container ships seeking ‌to exit
the Gulf via the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday after firing on
them and another vessel, casting clouds on prospects of ‌another
round of US-Iran peace talks.

The Iran war ​has sent energy prices surging, lifting freight
and input costs, which have provided ⁠some support to iron ore
prices, analysts said.

That said, the anticipation of rising supply curbed upside
in ore ‌prices.
BHP Group’s third-quarter iron ore output beat
expectations, and its resolution on a months-long supply
contract dispute with China raised prospects of potentially more
shipments to the world’s largest consumer.
Meanwhile, Rio Tinto , the world’s largest iron
ore supplier, maintained its ‌2026 Pilbara iron ore sales
forecast at 323 million to ​338 million tons while flagging
potential supply chain risks due to the Middle East ⁠conflict.

Coking coal and coke, other steelmaking
ingredients, rose 0.43% ⁠and 1.03%, respectively.

Steel benchmarks on the Shanghai Futures Exchange gained
ground. Rebar added 0.35%, ‌hot-rolled coil
advanced 0.68%, wire rod ticked up 0.61% and stainless
steel edged up 0.27%.

होर्मुज संकट से देश को मिला सबक, अनिल अग्रवाल बोले- अब ऊर्जा में आत्मनिर्भर बनने का है सही वक्त

होर्मुज संकट से देश को मिला सबक, अनिल अग्रवाल बोले- अब ऊर्जा में आत्मनिर्भर बनने का है सही वक्त

Key points generated by AI, verified by newsroom

  • ऊर्जा आयात पर निर्भरता कम करने के लिए आत्मनिर्भरता आवश्यक है।

US Iran War: हाल ही में होर्मुज जलडमरूमध्य (Strait of Hormuz) में बढ़ते तनाव ने एक बार फिर भारत की एक बड़ी कमजोरी को उजागर कर दिया है. भारत अपनी जरूरत का लगभग 88 प्रतिशत कच्चा तेल और आधे से ज्यादा गैस बाहर से मंगवाता है. ऐसे में जब भी दुनिया के किसी हिस्से में संघर्ष या तनाव होता है तो उसका सीधा असर भारत की अर्थव्यवस्था पर पड़ता है. वेदांता के चेयरमैन अनिल अग्रवाल का मानना है कि यह स्थिति हमें एक बड़ा सबक देती है. भारत को अब ऊर्जा के मामले में आत्मनिर्भर बनने की दिशा में तेजी से काम करना होगा.

संसाधनों की कमी नहीं, खोज की जरूरत

अनिल अग्रवाल के मुताबिक, भारत तेल और गैस के मामले में गरीब नहीं है. उनका कहना है कि देश में करीब 300 अरब बैरल तेल के बराबर संसाधन हो सकते हैं. समस्या यह नहीं है कि हमारे पास संसाधन नहीं है, बल्कि यह है कि हमने अभी तक उन्हें पूरी तरह खोजा और इस्तेमाल नहीं किया है. इन्वेस्टमेंट और आधुनित तकनीक की कमी इस क्षेत्र में सबसे बड़ी बाधा बनी हुई है. भारत की विदेशी तेल पर निर्भरता केवल एक सामान्य समस्या नहीं है, बल्कि यह एक स्ट्रक्चरल रिस्क है. इसका साफ मतलब यही है कि यह खतरा हमेशा बना रहेगा.

 वेदांता ने इस दिशा में बड़ा कदम उठाया

आज के टाइम में आधुनिक तकनीक जैसे AI, डिजिटल ऑयलफील्ड सिस्टम और एडवांस्ट सीस्मिक इमेजिंग के जरिए तेल की खोज और उत्पादन को तेज किया जा सकता है. अब वेदांता ने इस दिशा में बड़ा कदम उठाया है, जिसमें 5 अरब डॉलर इन्वेस्ट करने की योजना बनाई गई है और साथ ही आने वाले टाइम में उत्पादन को 10 लाख बैरल प्रतिदिन तक बढ़ाने का लक्ष्य रखा है. अनिल अग्रवाल का मानना है कि भारत में कई बार काम की गति सरकारी प्रक्रियाओं के कारण धीमी हो जाती है. उनका सुझाव है कि ज्यादा कागजी कार्रवाई में उलझने के बजाय काम को जल्दी शुरू करना चाहिए. इससे परियोजनाओं में तेजी आएगी और परिणाम जल्दी मिलेंगे.

अंतर्राष्ट्रीय सहयोग बहुत जरूरी- अनिल अग्रवाल

अनिल अग्रवाल का मानना है कि अंतर्राष्ट्रीय सहयोग बहुत जरूरी है, खासकर अमेरिकी ऊर्जा कंपनियों के साथ जो गहरे समुद्र में तेल निकालने की आधुनिक तकनीक और विशेषज्ञता रखती हैं. ये कंपनियां सिर्फ पैसा नहीं लातीं, बल्कि Gulf of Mexico और North Sea जैसे मुश्किल इलाकों में बड़े पैमाने पर काम करने का असली तजुर्बा भी साथ लाती हैं. यह साझेदारी भारत की सीखने की रफ्तार को तेज कर सकती है और देश के भीतर मौजूद तेल भंडार को जल्दी खोलने में मदद कर सकती है.

नीति सही है, अमल में कमी है 

भारत ने अपने तेल-गैस क्षेत्र में कई सुधार किए हैं. लाइसेंसिंग के नियम बेहतर हुए हैं और नियामक रवैया भी पहले से ज्यादा सहूलियत देने वाला हुआ है. लेकिन अनिल अग्रवाल कहते हैं कि नीति और जमीनी हकीकत के बीच एक बड़ा फासला अभी भी बना हुआ है. मंजूरियों में देरी और काम-काज में अड़चनें अब भी खोज के नतीजों को धीमा कर रही हैं.

बदलती सोच: खनन अब बाधा नहीं, बदलाव का रास्ता है 

अनिल अग्रवाल एक बड़े बदलाव की तरफ भी ध्यान दिलाते हैं. पहले खनन और तेल-गैस उत्पादन को पर्यावरण के लिए खतरा माना जाता था. लेकिन अब दुनिया की सोच बदल रही है. विकासशील देशों के लिए खनन और हाइड्रोकार्बन उत्पादन को ऊर्जा बदलाव (Energy Transition) का एक जरूरी हिस्सा माना जाने लगा है. होर्मुज संकट ने यह साफ कर दिया है कि भारत की ऊर्जा सुरक्षा सिर्फ बाहरी सप्लाई चेन पर नहीं टिक सकती. होर्मुज संकट से हमें यह सबक मिलता है कि भारत को ऊर्जा के लिए दूसरों पर निर्भर रहना बंद करना होगा और अपने देश के भीतर ही तेल और गैस निकालने के काम में तेजी लानी होगी.

Crude oil rises above 3 as US-Iran tensions and Strait of Hormuz disruption fuel supply fears

Crude oil rises above $103 as US-Iran tensions and Strait of Hormuz disruption fuel supply fears


While global buyers increasingly turn to US exports, rising supply risks are offset by signs of demand destruction, especially in aviation due to elevated jet fuel prices.

Crude oil futures traded higher on Thursday as diplomatic efforts to hold talks between the US and Iran failed to gain momentum, and the Strait of Hormuz remained closed to vessel traffic.

At 10 am on Thursday, June Brent oil futures were at $103.40, up by 1.46 per cent, and June crude oil futures on WTI (West Texas Intermediate) were at $94.53, up by 1.69 per cent. May crude oil futures were trading at ₹8913 on Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) during the initial hour of trading on Thursday against the previous close of ₹8723, up by 2.18 per cent, and June futures were trading at ₹8490 against the previous close of ₹8350, up by 1.68 per cent.

In their Commodities Feed for Thursday, Warren Patterson, Head of Commodities Strategy of ING Think, and Ewa Manthey, Commodities Strategist, said hopes for a resolution between the US and Iran are fading as peace talks stall. In addition, Iran’s seizure of two vessels attempting to transit the Strait of Hormuz suggests disruptions to shipments are set to continue.

The market is having to reprice expectations. This saw Brent break convincingly back above $100 a barrel. As hopes fade, the reality of the supply disruption will set in, leaving further upside for prices. If no progress is made, the market will become increasingly numb to the noise and headlines that have recently dictated price action, they said.

In a post on X, Masoud Pezeshkian, President of Iran, said Iran has welcomed dialogue and agreement and continues to do so. Breach of commitments, blockade and threats are the main obstacles to genuine negotiations. His post, which was directed towards US President Donald Trump, said: “World sees your endless hypocritical rhetoric and contradiction between claims and actions.”

Meanwhile, ING Think’s Commodities Feed said the world continues to see growing demand destruction in the oil market, a trend that will intensify as Persian Gulf supply disruptions persist. Airlines continue to announce flight cancellations amid a tightening in jet fuel supply and significant price strength. Europe’s jet fuel market is heavily exposed to developments in West Asia. The region sources the majority of its jet fuel imports from the Persian Gulf. There is a push for Europe to look elsewhere for alternative supplies, while also relying heavily on inventory.

The US EIA (Energy Information Administration) data showed that the US is exporting record amounts of oil and refined products, as buyers around the globe seek alternative supplies. ING Think’s Commodities Feed said total oil and refined product exports over the last reporting week increased by 137,000 barrels a day to 12.88 million barrels a day.

Although the US market has been relatively shielded from West Asian supply disruptions, prolonged instability is tightening conditions as global buyers increasingly turn to US supplies, it said.

According to EIA’s petroleum status report for the week ending April 17, US commercial crude oil inventories increased by 1.9 million barrels from the previous week.

Total motor gasoline inventories decreased by 4.6 million barrels from last week, and distillate fuel inventories decreased by 3.4 million barrels.

Total products supplied in the US over the last four-week period averaged 20.5 million barrels per day, up by 3per cent from the same period last year.

Over the past four weeks, motor gasoline product supplied averaged 8.8 million barrels per day, up by 1.7 per cent from the same period last year. The average daily supply of distillate fuel products averaged 4 million barrels over the past four weeks, up 3.4 per cent from the same period last year. The jet fuel product supplied was down 6.5 per cent compared with the same four-week period last year.

April lead futures were trading at ₹196.95 on MCX during the initial hour of trading on Thursday against the previous close of ₹196.50, up by 0.23 per cent.

On the National Commodities and Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX), May jeera contracts were trading at ₹21010 in the initial hour of trading on Thursday against the previous close of ₹21165, down by 0.73 per cent.

May guargum futures were trading at ₹10907 on NCDEX in the initial hour of trading on Thursday against the previous close of ₹10971, down by 0.58 per cent.
