Benchmarks eke out slender gains; Nifty holds 10,300 mark
Indian equity benchmarks ended the volatile day of trade with marginal gains on Thursday. Sentiments remained up-beat in the beginning of the trade with traders eyeing on Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council meeting starting in Guwahati today. GST Council is likely to slash the indirect tax rates on as many as 165 items at its meeting in Guwahati, which begins later today. At present, these 165 items attract 28% tax, which could be moved to the 18% category. The street took note that a year after demonetization, India is getting ready to give digital payments yet another push. It could consider providing incentives in the GST regime for payments that are settled electronically. Investors took note that in a move that could unlock defence contracts of more than Rs 25,000 crore, the government is amending its defence procurement manual (DPM), which will enable the armed forces to procure the latest tech in a speedy manner.
Markets pared all of their early gains to enter into red terrain in noon deals, as traders turned cautious with Grant Thornton’s latest International Business Report (IBR) highlighting that India slipped to the 7th position in the September quarter from the 2nd spot in the previous three months in its ‘business optimism index’, showing clear signs of lag in the economy. Investors also took note of the finance ministry’s statement that raising the individual limit of foreign investment up to 15% in power exchanges would be unwise unless a clear business case is established and a strong and adequate regulatory mechanism exists. However, short covering in last leg of trade helped markets to end tad above their neutral lines.
Firm trade in European counters too provided some solace to the domestic markets, as a flurry of corporate earnings for the third quarter triggered sharp prices moves across some sectors and bourses. The European Central Bank is prepared to delay the introduction of stricter rules on bad bank loans after fierce criticism from the European Parliament and Italy. Asian markets exhibited mixed trend on Thursday, as optimism over US President Donald Trump's tax reforms faded and tensions continued to flare in the Middle East.
Back home, broader indices outperformed benchmarks and ended the session with a gain of around a percentage point. On the sectoral front, realty and power sector stocks remained on buyers’ radar despite report that in a significant widening of the tax base of the GST, the Centre and States will discuss including electricity and real estate within the ambit of the indirect levy. The power sector stocks additionally in focus on reports that thermal power plants are facing severe coal shortage and are running at less than half-a-day’s stocks.
