Manappuram Finance shares gain after Bain Capital deal; Analysts see stock at ?270

It must be noted that shares of Manappuram Finance are in the Futures and Options (F&O) ban, which means no new positions can be created in the stock in today's trading session.

The article from CNBC TV18 discusses the impact of Bain Capital's investment in Manappuram Finance, where Bain Capital acquired a 9.9% stake for Rs 1,171 crore. This deal has led to a positive market reaction, with Manappuram Finance's shares rising by 10% in the last month.
