KATHMANDU, Dec 16: Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) added 141.83 points last week in the aftermath of Nepal Rastra Bank adopting lenient policy on loans against shares and real estate transactions through the first quarterly review of the monetary policy for the current fiscal year.

The market started the week with a whopping growth of 111.20 points on Sunday, as an impact of the central bank reducing its policy rate and bank rate. However, on the remaining trading days, the growth slowed mainly after the investors looked to book their capital gains out of the massive surge in shares prices on the first trading day of the week.

All the 13 trading groups posted gains in their indices. Hydropower group got the highest percentage gain by adding an average of 13.17 percent in its market value. Finance added 9.38 percent, followed by manufacturing and processing with 9.22 percent.

Among individual companies, Sonapur Minerals and Oil Limited topped in terms of the transaction amount. The company’s shares worth Rs 745.67 million were traded during the review period.

Dolti Power Company Ltd gained 55.90 percent of its share price and was recorded the top gainer in the category. The price of Prime Debenture 2088 dropped 4.24 percent, the highest of all.
