**MUMBAI, INDIA** – India’s stock market saw a mixed performance today as companies released their October-December quarter (Q3 FY25) earnings. While some sectors surged, others experienced declines. The day’s trading also coincided with the Traders Gurukul’s “BOTS” options trading summit, held across major Indian cities.

Leading the gainers was KP Energy, whose shares jumped 5%, hitting their upper circuit limit at Rs 440.90 after reporting a significant 185% year-on-year increase in Q3 net profit to Rs 26 crore. Conversely, BEML shares plummeted 3% to Rs 3,288 apiece following a 49% year-on-year drop in its Q3 net profit.

Other notable financial news included SBI’s strong performance, exceeding expectations with an 84% year-on-year rise in net profit to Rs 16,891 crore. In contrast, an unnamed company reported a less optimistic financial picture: a 12.5% year-on-year decrease in net profit to Rs 193.2 crore, despite a slight revenue increase to Rs 5,344.5 crore. Its EBITDA also fell 16.6%, resulting in a reduced margin of 7.9% compared to 9.6% year-on-year.
