What will happen if the merger gets approved: Zee Business Analysis

Zee Business Research Analyst, Nupur Jainkunia said that, if the merger gets approved, HDFC Bank Ltd will be off the BSE and NSE list. She added that passive traders will be selling in a huge number and this will be a huge exclusion on Nifty as HDFC Ltd weighs around 5.5 per cent.

She further added that, after HDFC is off the indexes there will be a redistribution amongst the top 10 Nifty stocks for heavyweights, stocks like Reliance, ICICI bank, Infosys will be rebalanced. On completion of the whole process of HDFC merger, the HDFC stock will again see an increase.

Nupur said that with HDFC out of the list other stocks will have a chance to replace— Pidilite, Ambuja Cement, Tata power and SRF are the names in line to replace HDFC Ltd.
