Among BSE 500 stocks, Adani Enterprises, Dixon Technologies and Suzlon Energy were the best performers during the week.

Adani Enterprises

The stock of Adani Enterprises gained the most at around 30 per cent due to two reasons.

One, the shares of the company jumped around 19 per cent on Monday as the Supreme Court appointed expert committee has concluded that it would be difficult to point to a regulatory failure on the part of SEBI, providing some relief to investors. The committee was appointed by the apex court following the Hinderberg Research allegations against the Adani Group.

Two, the stock further moved around 13 per cent on Tuesday after the US-based global investment firm GQG Partners increased its stake in the Adani Group to 10 per cent. According to Rajiv Jain, CIO, GQG Partners, the asset management firm made the move on account of comfortable valuations, healthy growth potential and faith in the company’s management.
