Fertilizer stocks are trading weak led by Nagarjuna Fertilisers and Zuari Indsutries. As per a leading daily, a unit of Tata Chemicals at Babrala, Uttar Pradesh is facing weak demand for its customized fertilizers. Customized fertilizers are a combination of micro nutrients such as sulphur, zinc and boron with regular fertilizers such as urea and di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) and potash. These are blended in specific proportions as required by the specific crops and soils. Weakened demand has resulted in fall in output at the plant. The plant is now operating at less than half of its installed capacity of just about 40%. The current installed capacity is 130 b tonnes.

Auto stocks are trading firm led by Jindal Drill and Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC).

We may note here that the Chief Minister of the state, Mr Ashok Gehlot had requested the Union Petroleum Minister, Mr Moily to ask HPCL to set up a refinery to fulfill the pending demand of Rajasthan state. HPCL is now expecting to receive all necessary approvals by ministry in time so that the work can start thereafter. At present, HPCL has 2 refineries, one each in Mumbai and Vishakhapatnam.
