Maruti Suzuki outperforms Sensex by driving on opposite lanes of the index
The carmaker has created the buzz by hitting the top gainers list.
Maruti Suzuki India has proved why it is called one of the giants in the automotive sector. The stock may not be the multibagger, but today it has shown why it is a reliable stock especially when the markets are down. The stock today rallied by a whopping 7.3%, outperforming all other stocks in Sensex, making it one of the trending companies today on the BSE.
The company has been trending for the past few days. While Tata Motors is leading the race in the buzzing EV space, Maruti Suzuki is backing CNG based vehicles. The company had sold 1.62 lakh units of CNG cars last year. The management expects this sales number to double in the current fiscal 2022. The company is focusing on a rapid expansion of CNG dispensing outlets to add efficiency and convenience to CNG cars.
Another big news for this buzzing stock has been the approval from the Haryana state chief minister for setting up a new production plant spread across 900 acres. The auto company already has two manufacturing units in Haryana. The company also has announced the opening for booking for its high mileage car, the all-new Celerio. The new car launch is expected to boost the compact segment of the company.
The sales numbers were reasonably good for the month of October. In the sectoral slowdown where the shortage of electric components has affected the sales, it sold 1,38,335 units in October 2021. It achieved its highest ever monthly sales exports of about 21,322 units.
The stock has created the buzz as it is up for three straight trading sessions. The stock has a 52-week high of Rs 8400 and a 52-week low of Rs 6301.20. It closed at Rs 8049.65, up by 7.3% as of 16 November 2021 on the BSE.
