Swiggy, NTPC, PVR Inox, IHCL: Market Braces For A Volatile Monday As Macro Jitters Rise

Ashik Bothra - Mumbai Bureau Published May 11, 2026, 01:51 AM Updated Sep 18, 2026, 05:40 AM

Swiggy, NTPC, Bank of Baroda, PVR Inox, Shipping Corporation of India, and Indian Hotels Company are set to be in sharp focus today as domestic equities eye a weak open amid negative global cues and elevated crude prices. Stock-specific news, Q4 earnings, deal activity, and sector rotation are likely to drive intraday action across PSU banks, power, hospitality, and media.

The Indian market is poised for a cautious start today as GIFT Nifty signals a gap-down opening, tracking risk-off sentiment on the back of higher oil and geopolitical tensions. Against this backdrop, traders will be closely watching Swiggy, NTPC, Bank of Baroda, PVR Inox, SCI, IHCL and a clutch of mid-caps where fresh triggers could spark outsized moves.

Swiggy: Listing Trade And Growth Expectations

Swiggy remains on traders’ radar as the recently listed food delivery platform continues to see elevated volumes and volatile price action in the wake of its IPO and ongoing profitability roadmap. Street focus is on the company’s path to sustainable margins, order growth, and potential regulatory changes around app-based delivery platforms. Any commentary on food-tech competition, discounting intensity or new quick-commerce initiatives could swing sentiment quickly during the session.

NTPC And PSU Power Names In Focus

NTPC is in focus as investors track its capacity addition pipeline, renewable energy transition, and tariff visibility at a time when power demand remains structurally strong. The stock is seen as a defensive play in a jittery tape, with attention on recent project awards, coal supply visibility, and any government commentary on divestment or green energy monetisation plans. Moves in peer PSU power names and benchmark indices could amplify intraday swings in NTPC.

Bank Of Baroda And PSU Banking Trend

Bank of Baroda will be watched for cues on credit growth, asset quality trends, and margin trajectory in the broader PSU banking pack. After a strong multi-quarter rally in PSU banks, traders are alert to any signs of profit-taking, especially if bond yields or macro commentary turn adverse. Fresh institutional flows, block deals or management guidance could set the tone for the stock and the wider PSU banking space through the day.

PVR Inox, SCI, IHCL And Consumption Plays

PVR Inox may stay active amid news flow around stake sales, screen expansion, and content pipeline at a time when box-office performance is increasingly driving short-term moves. Shipping Corporation of India is on watch as investors track divestment chatter, freight rate trends, and any fresh government signals on strategic stake sale. Indian Hotels Company (IHCL) remains a key hospitality proxy, with street focus on occupancy, average room rates and travel demand as tourism and corporate travel normalise.
