href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\/nifty-auto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\/nifty-auto\">Nifty Auto<\/a><\/a> was down 0.39%, or 113.90 points, at 28,886.25 in the early session on 27 August 2026.<\/li>\n<li>The index was below its previous close of 29,000.15 after opening at 29,057.90; its intraday range was 28,827.60 to 29,132.45.<\/li>\n<li>Market breadth was tilted lower, with 10 decliners and five advancers among 15 displayed stocks.<\/li>\n<li>TVS Motor Company, Hero MotoCorp, Bajaj Auto and Maruti Suzuki were among the notable losers, while Bharat Forge, Balkrishna Industries and Tata Motors traded higher. Watch whether the index can move away from its day low as the session develops.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nifty_Auto_today_early-session_pressure_in_focus\"><\/span>Nifty Auto today: early-session pressure in focus<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Nifty Auto today<\/strong> is under early-session pressure, trading 113.90 points lower at 28,886.25, down 0.39% from the previous close of 29,000.15. The move places the auto-sector index below both its prior close and opening level of 29,057.90 at the 10:00 AM IST update.<\/p>\n<p>The index initially moved up to 29,132.45 during the session before declining to 28,827.60. With the latest level only 58.65 points above the intraday low and 246.20 points below the day high, the early price action shows that the sector had given up its initial strength. This is a live market snapshot rather than a call on the sector\u2019s direction beyond the current session.<\/p>\n<p>The 0.39% decline makes Nifty Auto the selected top losing sector index in the configured sector-index set for this update. The reading is based on the index\u2019s actual early-session movement, while stock-level performance provides context on how participation is shaping up inside the sector.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Price_snapshot\"><\/span>Price snapshot<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Metric<\/th>\n<th>Level<\/th>\n<th>Early-session reading<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Last traded price<\/td>\n<td>28,886.25<\/td>\n<td>Down 113.90 points<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Previous close<\/td>\n<td>29,000.15<\/td>\n<td>Index is below this level<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Day open<\/td>\n<td>29,057.90<\/td>\n<td>Opening level was above the previous close<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Day high<\/td>\n<td>29,132.45<\/td>\n<td>Highest level recorded so far<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Day low<\/td>\n<td>28,827.60<\/td>\n<td>Lowest level recorded so far<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The intraday range between the high and low was 304.85 points. The index\u2019s latest level sits in the lower part of that range, which keeps attention on whether the low holds through the rest of the session. The gap between the LTP and previous close is 113.90 points, matching the reported day change.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sector_ranking\"><\/span>Sector ranking<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Nifty Auto was selected as the top losing sector index for this Opening Bell update after comparison across the configured sector indices. Its 0.39% fall was the weakest selected reading in that group. Nifty FMCG also showed a 0.39% decline, while Nifty IT fell 0.15%, Nifty Mid Select declined 0.12% and Nifty Metal was lower by 0.05%. In contrast, Nifty Financial Services, Nifty Bank and Nifty Pharma were marginally higher.<\/p>\n<p>This ranking provides useful market context: the auto index was among the weakest sectoral readings at the time of the update. It does not by itself explain the move or establish a broader trend; the constituent-level split remains central to interpreting the index performance.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Constituent_breadth\"><\/span>Constituent breadth<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Breadth within Nifty Auto was negative. Of the 15 displayed stocks, 10 declined and five advanced, with no unchanged stocks. The advance-decline ratio stood at 0.50, meaning there was one advancing stock for every two declining stocks.<\/p>\n<p>The breadth pattern aligns with the index\u2019s 0.39% fall. It also shows that the weakness was not uniform: five stocks remained in positive territory. Bharat Forge rose 1.04%, Balkrishna Industries gained 1.00%, Tata Motors added 0.70%, Samvardhana Motherson International moved up 0.42%, and Tube Investments of India was higher by 0.12%.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heavyweights_versus_broader_participation\"><\/span>Heavyweights versus broader participation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The available heavyweight-stock set presented a mixed but largely soft picture. <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/mandm\/mahindra-and-mahindra-ltd-share-price-today\">Mahindra &amp; Mahindra<\/a> declined 0.49% to 3,381.40, <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/maruti\/maruti-suzuki-india-ltd-share-price-today\">Maruti Suzuki India<\/a> slipped 0.63% to 13,435, and <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bajaj-auto\/bajaj-auto-ltd-share-price-today\">Bajaj Auto<\/a> fell 0.69% to 11,643. Eicher Motors was lower by 0.11% at 8,026.50.<\/p>\n<p>Tata Motors was the positive exception in this group, gaining 0.70% to 315.30. The same five names appear in the available active-stock set, making their price moves particularly relevant to the sector\u2019s early-session tone. The mixed performance among these stocks, alongside a negative overall breadth count, illustrates that gains in some counters were insufficient to offset broader declines.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Nifty_Auto_stocks\"><\/span>Key Nifty Auto stocks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Stock<\/th>\n<th>Move<\/th>\n<th>Why it matters<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>TVS Motor Company<\/td>\n<td>4,375; -1.99%<\/td>\n<td>Largest percentage decline among the highlighted movers.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hero MotoCorp<\/td>\n<td>5,538.50; -1.01%<\/td>\n<td>One of the two stocks down more than 1%.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bharat Forge<\/td>\n<td>2,025.90; +1.04%<\/td>\n<td>Strongest percentage gainer in the sector snapshot.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Balkrishna Industries<\/td>\n<td>2,352; +1.00%<\/td>\n<td>Positive counter despite the sector\u2019s negative index move.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tata Motors<\/td>\n<td>315.30; +0.70%<\/td>\n<td>Advanced while several highlighted heavyweight stocks declined.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Maruti Suzuki India<\/td>\n<td>13,435; -0.63%<\/td>\n<td>Part of the negative early-session heavyweight performance.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Biggest_positive_movers\"><\/span>Biggest positive movers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/stocks\/bharatforg\/bharat-forge-ltd-share-price-today\">Bharat Forge<\/a> led the gainers, rising 1.04% to 2,025.90 after trading between 2,006 and 2,039.90. Balkrishna Industries followed with a 1.00% gain to 2,352, with an intraday high of 2,358. Tata Motors rose 0.70% to 315.30 and traded as high as 317.55.<\/p>\n<p>Samvardhana Motherson International gained 0.42% to 165.69, while Tube Investments of India edged up 0.12% to 2,863.40.

Bajaj Auto was down 0.69% at 11,643.<\/p>\n<p>Ashok Leyland declined 0.65% to 177.89, while Maruti Suzuki India fell 0.63% to 13,435. MRF, Mahindra &amp; Mahindra, Exide Industries, Bosch and Eicher Motors were also lower, reinforcing the 10-to-five negative breadth split.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stocks_to_watch_next_session\"><\/span>Stocks to watch next session<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>TVS Motor Company:<\/strong> It was down 1.99% and traded near its intraday low.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hero MotoCorp:<\/strong> Its 1.01% decline made it a key negative mover.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bharat Forge:<\/strong> The stock led sector gainers with a 1.04% advance.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Balkrishna Industries:<\/strong> It gained 1.00% and remained among the top positive movers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tata Motors:<\/strong> Its 0.70% rise contrasted with declines in several other key auto names.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maruti Suzuki India:<\/strong> The stock was down 0.63% and traded near its day low of 13,422.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_constructive_case\"><\/span>The constructive case<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The constructive evidence is the presence of five advancing stocks despite the index decline. Bharat Forge and Balkrishna Industries each rose about 1%, while Tata Motors, Samvardhana Motherson International and Tube Investments of India also traded higher. This split indicates that there was selective buying within the sector at the time of the snapshot.<\/p>\n<p>The index was also still above its day low of 28,827.60, though only modestly. Any subsequent move away from that low would be a fresh intraday observation for market participants to track, rather than a conclusion drawn from the current data.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_cautious_case\"><\/span>The cautious case<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The cautious evidence is clearer in both the index level and the breadth. Nifty Auto was below its previous close and opening level, while 10 of 15 displayed stocks were declining. The LTP of 28,886.25 was positioned close to the session low after the index had touched 29,132.45 earlier.<\/p>\n<p>TVS Motor Company and Hero MotoCorp posted the steepest percentage declines among the highlighted names, and Bajaj Auto, Maruti Suzuki India and Mahindra &amp; Mahindra were also lower. This combination kept the early-session sector reading negative.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Univest_Insights\"><\/span>Univest Insights<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The early picture for nifty auto today is one of broad pressure with pockets of relative strength. The index\u2019s 0.39% decline and the 10-to-five breadth split point to a softer opening tone, but the five advancing stocks show that movement has not been uniform across the sector.<\/p>\n<p>Price location is also important in the current session. After opening at 29,057.90 and recording a high of 29,132.45, the index moved down to 28,827.60 before the latest reading of 28,886.25. That sequence leaves the day\u2019s high, low and previous close as straightforward reference points for the session.<\/p>\n<p>For stock-specific tracking, Bharat Forge and Balkrishna Industries represent the stronger side of the early move, while TVS Motor Company and Hero MotoCorp represent the weaker side. Tata Motors stands out as a positive mover within the highlighted heavyweight set, whereas Maruti Suzuki India, Bajaj Auto and Mahindra &amp; Mahindra were lower.<\/p>\n<p>For a wider market dashboard, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/share-market-today\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/share-market-today\">Univest Market View<\/a><\/a>.
