Benchmarks end marginally in red ahead of RBI policy outcome
Indian equity benchmarks ended the Tuesday’s trade with marginal losses as traders remained on the sidelines ahead of the outcome of two-day policy review by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) beginning today. The RBI is likely to keep the key rate unchanged on Wednesday and stay focused on inflation control as the rebound in September quarter GDP growth. Markets started the session on pessimistic note, as sentiments remained dampened after global rating agency Fitch Ratings pared India’s growth forecast for this financial year to 6.7% from 6.9% estimated earlier citing lower than expected recovery in the second quarter. For 2018-19, the credit rating agency has cut the forecast to 7.3% from 7.4% earlier.
Sentiments also weighed down with India’s services sector growth losing momentum in the month of November, as sustained pain from the country’s Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime triggered significant decline in demand and lower customer turnout. The seasonally adjusted Nikkei Services Business Activity Index fell to 48.5 in the month of November from 51.7 in the month of October. The Nikkei India Composite PMI Output Index, which measures both manufacturing and services, was also down to 50.3 in November from 51.3 in October. However, recovery in final hour of trade helped markets to pare most of their early losses and end only with marginal cut, as traders drew some solace on report that Finance Secretary Hasmukh Adhia has called a meeting of tax officials from the Centre and States on December 9, to assess the trend in revenue collections from the GST and review measures to further boost compliance.
On the global front, European markets were trading mostly in red in early deals, amid latest news surrounding Brexit talks and fresh economic data. Activity in the UK service sector dropped more than expected in November, dampening optimism over the British economy as the sector makes up approximately 80% of gross domestic product. Asian markets ended mostly in red despite growth in China’s services sector activity picked up to a three-month high in November, buoyed by a solid rise in new business, though the rate of expansion remained moderate and weaker than the long-run trend.
Back home, export oriented stocks remained buzzing as the key policymakers led by Commerce Minister Suresh Prabhu will unveil the mid-term review of the foreign trade policy today. Exporters have been voicing concerns about challenges on account of implementation of GST. Aviation stocks flied higher on report that India’s domestic passenger traffic grew by 20.4% in October. The report enlightened that India’s domestic demand was highest amongst major aviation markets like Australia, Brazil, China, Japan, Russia and the US. PSU banking stocks remained in focus in today’s trade on report that the finance ministry is working with state-run lenders to frame a common set of rules for valuation of stressed assets for faster resolution of loans extended by consortia of banks.
