Market aftermath: Impact on stocks today
Angel One stock drops 10%
Angel One’s stock dropped 10% to ₹ 2,394.85 on July 2 after SEBI’s new circular on market intermediary charges. The revision may impact Angel One’s ₹ 400 crore earnings from transaction charges in FY24.
Trading volumes spiked to 18 lakh shares, far above the one-month average of 5 lakh. The circular mandates MIIs to charge clients directly without discounts. This change could significantly reduce revenues for discount brokers, though higher brokerage rates might offset some impact.
