Paytm's early investors plan a secondary block sale at a discount, increasing near-term supply overhang. The government's LIC offer-for-sale adds incremental equity issuance. Airtel, ONGC, and BSE results are near-term volatility catalysts, and ONGC's Mangaluru storage project supports strategic and commercial energy logistics.

State-run Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) is developing a 1.75 million tonnes petroleum storage facility at Mangaluru, with half of the capacity set aside for strategic reserves and the rest for commercial operations. Separately, three investors in Paytm parent One 97 Communications plan to sell shares worth up to Rs 2,002 crore at a 5% discount in a deal structured as a 100% secondary sale, meaning the company will not receive proceeds. LIC, Airtel and BSE were also among stocks on investors’ radar amid a broader market rise.
