A total of three Nifty50 companies are scheduled to report their quarterly results today. Out of the 13 Nifty50 companies that have reported their quarterly numbers so far, five have reported results that beat Street expectations, while four fell short of meeting investor expectations. Two companies reported in-line results while another two came out with a mixed set of numbers.
Here’s what analysts poll on ET NOW anticipated about the report cards:
An ET NOW poll of analysts forecasts Tata Steel to report a 19 per cent year-on-year (YoY) drop in net profit at Rs 7,199 crore compared with Rs 8,907 crore in the same quarter last year.

Ebitda is seen dropping 24 per cent YoY to Rs 12,272 crore from Rs 16,110 crore in the year-ago quarter.
