Nearly three-quarters of the way through the review period, we see Apollo Hospitals (APHS) and Info Edge (INFOE) replacing Indian Oil (IOCL) and Coal India (COAL) in the NIFTY50.
The inclusion of Apollo Hospitals and deletion of IOC is a high probability event, while the inclusion of Info Edge and deletion of Coal India is a lower probability event.
The impact in terms of ADV to trade on the stocks is quite large and that increases further once we consider the impact in terms of delivery volumes.

A "Buyback" is where (for our purposes) a publicly-listed company repurchases its shares from existing shareholders, sometimes in the market, sometimes in a structured buyback off exchange, and sometimes at a price higher than market price (in this insight, we will use the nouns "Buy-back" and "Buyback" interchangeably; the official regulatory documents in India often use the form with the hyphen).When companies use excess cash to buy back shares, they often not only end up optimising their capital structure but also "achieve" EPS accretion with the aid of a reduction in the total share count of the company. Some companies use buy-backs to support their share prices during sluggish periods and others attempt to use it as a defence mechanism against hostile takeover situations.  Still others in India use it to return capital to their promoters.All that is pretty well-known.In India, such Buy-backs are governed by the <a href="https://www.sebi.gov.in/legal/regulations/jul-2019/securities-and-exchange-board-of-india-buy-back-of-securities-regulations-2018-last-amended-on-april-17-2020-_40327.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SEBI (BUY-BACK OF SECURITIES) REGULATIONS, 2018</a> (last amended on 17th April 2020) and are principally executed through three main mechanisms - Tender Offers, On-Market Transactions, and Book-building Processes. This insight is the first of a two-part series by Quiddity on Indian Buy-backs.In this insight, we will look into the regulations that govern each of the buy-back mechanisms to discover the basis for how they get executed.

Aditya Birla Capital Ltd / Equity Bottom-Up

Aditya Birla Capital: As outlined in our Initiation note, Aditya Birla Capital (ABCL) continues on its journey towards a credible makeover, driving consolidated return ratios closer to franchise potential over the next three years. We believe that ABCL is steadily repositioning its lending businesses towards retail and granular loans (58% of NBFC AUM towards Retail + SME + HNI; 29% of HF AUM towards affordable housing), likely to reflect in sustained improvement in franchise earnings. Although Q1FY22 was weak for insurers in general, we draw comfort from both of ABCL's insurance businesses steadily building their profitability trajectory (VNB margins +300bps YoY to -1.6% on account of better mix and all-time low loss ratios (40%) in the health insurance business).
