Market wrap: Infosys, Dr Reddy's Labs, Tata Motors PV, Power Grid top gainers and losers on Nifty and Sensex on Monday
BSE moved higher.
28 Sept 2026 · ET Stocks, Economic Times Markets
Indian equity markets ended sharply lower on Monday, with the Nifty falling 1.56% and the Sensex declining 1.52% as all sectoral indices closed in the red. PSU banks and realty stocks led the decline, while Dr Reddy’s Labs and Infosys were among the few gainers. India VIX surged 12.54%.
The analysis
BSE reported movement of 1.56%, 1.52% and 12.54%. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Against that, the stock is -2.0% on the day at ₹993.20, and has returned -7.4% over three months. It sits 41% below its 52-week high, which means a good deal of bad news was already in the price. The it sector has moved -3.2% over the same period, so Infosys is running 4.2 points behind its peers.
With Infosys, Dr Reddy and Tata Motors all implicated, this reads as a IT-level move rather than a company-specific one, which is the more durable kind of signal.
Why it matters
- With BSE involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
Market context
- It touches several names at once (INFY, DRREDDY, TATAMOTORS, POWERGRID), which points to a sector-level rather than company-specific driver.
- Sector exposure: IT, Pharma & Healthcare, Auto.
