As the Indian stock market opens for trading on Monday, June 9, several important companies will be in focus due to new deals, strong business performance, and other major developments. These companies come from different sectors, including infrastructure, electronics, banking, mining, and more. Investors might find good opportunities in these stocks.

1. Bharat Electronics (BEL)

Bharat Electronics, a major electronics company owned by the government, has signed a partnership agreement (MoU) with Tata Electronics. The two companies plan to work together on making semiconductor chips and other electronic parts. This partnership will help India become more self-reliant in making its own chips and defense equipment. The plan includes chip design, manufacturing, and packaging. This is seen as an important step in India's "Atmanirbhar Bharat" (Self-Reliant India) mission.

2. Larsen & Toubro (L&T)

L&T, one of India's biggest infrastructure companies, has made news by announcing a Rs 500 crore ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) bond issue. This makes L&T the first Indian private company to use SEBI's new rules for ESG and sustainability-linked bonds. The money raised will likely go toward environmentally friendly and sustainable development projects. This move can attract investors who are interested in socially responsible investing.

3. Hindustan Copper Limited (HCL) & RITES

Two government-owned companies, HCL and RITES, have signed an agreement to build a fast and sustainable supply chain for minerals. Their goal is to help India secure the minerals it needs by participating in mining auctions and building mining infrastructure. This partnership will work both inside India and in other countries. It aims to strengthen India's position in the mining industry and reduce dependence on foreign sources.

4. GHV Infra Projects

Infrastructure company GHV Infra has won a major road project in Mumbai. The contract, worth Rs 546 crore (not including GST), is for strengthening and improving city roads. The project is expected to be completed within 24 months. This deal adds to the company's portfolio and could lead to more investor interest.

5. HDFC Bank

HDFC Bank is in the news due to serious allegations against its Managing Director and CEO, Sashidhar Jagdishan. The Lilavati Kirtilal Mehta Medical Trust has accused him of receiving Rs 2.05 crore in a case involving the harassment of a trustee's father. The bank has strongly denied the charges, calling them false and a misuse of the legal system. According to HDFC Bank, the claims are a distraction from efforts to recover money from borrowers who are not paying back loans. The outcome of this issue could impact investor confidence in the bank.

6. RailTel Corporation of India

RailTel, a state-run telecom company, has received work orders worth Rs 243 crore from the Bihar Education Project Council. The project involves supplying student kits for Class 1 to Class 12 students in government schools across Bihar. The work must be finished by August 14, 2025. This large contract shows RailTel's increasing role in digital education and public sector services.

7. Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M)

Mahindra & Mahindra has reported a strong 17% growth in vehicle sales for May 2025. The company sold 80,458 units, up from 69,011 units in May last year. It also increased production by 28%, manufacturing 89,626 units compared to 70,261 last year. However, exports dropped by 27%, going down to 2,671 units from 3,652 units in May 2024. The strong domestic performance is a good sign for the company, even though export numbers are down.

8. Asian Paints

Asian Paints, the country's largest paint manufacturer, is facing a legal complaint from Birla Opus Paints, a part of the Birla Group. The complaint was filed with the Competition Commission of India (CCI), and it accuses Asian Paints of using its powerful market position to harm smaller competitors. If the allegations are proven, it could lead to penalties or restrictions, affecting the company's market image and performance.
