With that, here’s a look at some of the key developments from the Indian new-age tech companies this week:

• Elevation Capital sold 1.19 Cr Paytm shares worth INR 1,556 Cr via two block deals on November 18 (Tuesday), reducing its shareholding in the fintech major to 8.59 Cr shares. The company’s shares declined 2.6% to end the week at INR 1,265.90.


• RateGain CEO Bhanu Chopra increased his stake in the company to 37.79% by acquiring 1.43 Lakh equity shares via open market transactions. The stock declined 2.28% to end the week at INR 684.45.


• Digital-first Fino Payments Bank paid GST authorities INR 10.2 Cr with respect to input tax credit claimed by it. The company said it paid the amount under protest and will contest the move. Its shares declined 1.17% to end yesterday’s trading session at INR 277.80 on the BSE.


• FirstCry’s roll up subsidiary Globalbees acquired an additional 20% stake in DF Pharmacy, a pharma company which sells skincare products Kozicare, Glutalight, among others, for INR 21.6 Cr. It now holds an 80% stake in the subsidiary. The company’s shares plunged 5.06% this week to INR 316.95.


• Brokerage Jefferies initiated its coverage on WeWork India with a ‘Buy’ rating and a price target of INR 790. The company’s shares gained 0.35% this week to end at INR 618.85.

With this, let’s recap what happened in the broader market.

Momentum Continues In Broader Market

After breaking its losing streak last week, the Indian equities market continued to rally this week. While Sensex gained 0.8% to end at 85,231.92, Nifty 50 gained 0.7% to end at 26,068.15. Both the indices are hovering close to their all-time highs as of now.

Bullish sentiment swept through Indian equities this week as macro stability, steady domestic inflows and stronger-than-expected Q2 earnings lifted investor confidence. Global brokerages highlighted India as a relative safe haven amid global jitters, pushing benchmark indices higher and triggering fresh interest in large cap financials and technology companies.

Brokerages like Goldman Sachs and HSBC have shifted to a more bullish stance on Indian equities, citing a turnaround driven by domestic equity purchases and improving earnings. Besides the strong Q2 earnings show, Geojit’s research head Vinod Nair attributed the bullish sentiment to easing inflation and optimism around India-US trade negotiations.

However, markets turned volatile yesterday amid weak global cues and rising concerns over potential delays in the India-US trade talks. While volatility hasn’t fully ebbed, the broader setup suggests room for a valuation rerating as India’s growth narrative regains momentum.

Now, let’s take a detailed look at the performance of a couple of new-age tech stocks this week.

BlackBuck Cofounders Offload Shares

Logistics major BlackBuck ended the week as one of the biggest losers after its three cofounders collectively sold shares worth INR 243.5 Cr through multiple block deals on Tuesday. The trio offloaded 36 Lakh shares together at INR 676.6 apiece.

Post the sale, Yabaji’s stake in the company fell to 10.7% from 11.81% and Hridaya’s reduced to 7.45% from 7.89%. Balasubramaniam’s stake declined to 6.98% from 7.42%. The shares sold by the trio were picked up by Discovery Global Opportunity Mauritius, TIMF Holdings, Motilal Oswal Financial Services, 360 ONE Asset Management, Citigroup and Goldman Sachs.

Earlier, Goldman Sachs offloaded a part of its holding in BlackBuck, selling 49.1 Lakh shares worth INR 294.7 Cr in September. Prior to that, Sands Capital sold shares worth INR 135.6 Cr across two block deals in August, while Wellington Management dumped shares worth INR 53.7 Cr stock.

The latest share sale came on the back of a sharp rally in BlackBuck’s shares, which have surged more than 19% over the past three months and nearly 43% year to date. The rally has been driven by the company’s strong performance in Q2 FY26 — BlackBuck posted a consolidated profit of INR 29.2 Cr versus a loss of INR 308.4 Cr in the year-ago quarter, while operating revenue jumped 53% YoY to INR 151.1 Cr.

Groww’s First Week As Listed Company

Groww began the week on a firm note, extending its post-listing momentum, seeing steady buying interest. However, the tone shifted mid-week. Groww slipped into the red on Wednesday and Thursday as profit booking kicked in at higher levels.

Analysts pointed to stretched valuations and muted cues from global markets, which dragged fintech counters and briefly halted Groww’s rally.

Despite the back-to-back declines, the stock managed to hold above key support levels, signalling that long-term conviction remains intact. The company’s shares ended the week up 6.41% at INR 157.93.

Groww declared its financial performance for the September quarter during the early trading hours yesterday. Its net profit rose 12% YoY to INR 471.3 Cr and grew nearly 25% QoQ as active users rose. However, operating revenue fell 9.5% YoY due to true-to-label norms and derivatives regulations but improved 12% sequentially.

The company continues to invest to bolster its margin trading facility and loan against securities businesses.

Groww’s shares ended the week 6.41% higher at INR 157.93 on the BSE.
