Period
Q1FY27

NSE reported ₹3,122 crore and ₹873 crore for Q1FY27. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.

  • Earnings versus expectations is what actually re-rates a stock; the surprise matters more than the absolute number.
  • With NSE, BSE involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
