Also, speaking of the current stock market scenario, note that Indian share markets have climbed back to their highest levels since the pandemic began.

The Sensex is trading above the 43,500-mark. Meanwhile, the Nifty is less than 300 points away to hit the 13,000-mark.

The smallcap index is up more than 70% since 23 March.

As per Richa Agarwal, lead smallcap analyst at Equitymaster, there could still be a lot of steam left to this smallcap rebound rally.

Have a look at the history of previous smallcap crashes and rebounds over the last two decades...

As you can see, every big fall in the smallcap index was followed by a sharp up move, a minimum gain 200%. Twice the rebounds were just shy of touching 300%.

Richa believes if you focus on the quality of business, margin of safety in valuations, and an optimum asset allocation, you are likely to create huge wealth for yourself.

In news from the financial markets space, India's foreign exchange reserves jumped by a massive US$ 7.779 billion to touch a lifetime high of US$ 568.494 billion in the week ended November 6, RBI data showed on Friday.

In the reporting week, the jump in reserves was mainly on account of an increase in foreign current assets (FCAs), a major component of the overall reserves.

FCAs increased by US$ 6.403 billion to US$ 524.742 billion, the central bank's weekly data showed.

In the previous week ended October 30, the reserves had increased by US$ 183 million to US$ 560.715 billion.

Meanwhile, gold reserves rose by US$ 1.328 billion to US$ 37.587 billion in the week ended November 6.

Moving on to stock specific news...

HDFC Bank and IndusInd Bank were among the top buzzing stocks today.

Private sector lenders HDFC Bank and IndusInd Bank have been put in the so-called 'red flag' list, a system used for monitoring foreign portfolio investor (FPI) limits.

A listed company enters the list when the available legroom for overseas investment is less than 3% of the permissible limit.

FPIs can invest up to 74% in both HDFC Bank and IndusInd Bank. The current FPI shareholding in case of HDFC Bank is 71.3% while that of IndusInd Bank is 73.1%.

Besides these two, Novartis India and Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health Care are the only other companies in the red-flag list.

Once a stock enters this list, incremental FPI buying is permitted on condition that overseas investors will divest their excess holdings within five trading days from the day of breach of the sectoral cap of 74%.

HDFC Bank share price and IndusInd Bank share price ended the day down up 0.8% and 0.2%, respectively.
