Markets eke out slender gains from a choppy session
Indian equity benchmarks managed to keep their head above water on Monday and went home with slender gains. Markets traded choppy throughout the session, as street digested Moody’s India upgrade and focused on Gujarat Assembly elections that will take place next month. The street took note of US-based rating agency Moody’s report that lower taxes and higher public expenditure could widen budget deficit in 2017-18, but steps taken by the government to broaden the tax base and improve spending efficiency would help in narrowing it going forward. Though, market participants took some comfort with the IMF data, which forms part of the latest World Economic Outlook report of the International Monetary Fund, stating that India has moved up one position to 126th in terms of per capita GDP of countries, though it still ranked lower than all its BRICS peers. Some support also came with SBI research report stating that India might not have to wait for 13 long years for next sovereign upgrade by a rating agency, as the government is firm and committed to adhere with the fiscal consolidation path.
Traders also took some solace with Finance Secretary Hasmukh Adhia’s statement that the latest changes have resolved nearly 90% of problems and discontentment related to the indirect tax regime. Separately, Department of Economic Affairs Secretary Subhash Chandra Garg has said that he hopes the growth rate to touch 7% by the end of fiscal year. Garg called the current financial year a transitional one, bearing the impact of major reforms like such as the demonetization and the implementation the new indirect tax system-Goods and Services Tax (GST).
Weak opening in European markets kept the gains in domestic markets in check with CAC, DAX and FTSE trading in red in early deals after preliminary coalition talks in Germany collapsed. The Free Democrats have apparently signaled that they could support a minority government made up of the CDU-CSU bloc and the Green party. Asian markets closed mixed, with investors’ sentiments hurt by a retreat on Wall Street. China’s new home prices rose at a slightly faster pace in October after gains had held steady the previous month, as prices remained resilient in the face of falling sales and a tighter liquidity environment.
Back home, the aviation stocks remained on buyers’ radar with report that India’s domestic air traffic registered a growth of 20.52% in October when airlines flew 10.45 million passengers as compared to 8.67 million during the corresponding period last year. Stocks related to the logistics sector edged higher on report that government may grant infrastructure status to logistics sector soon, a move that will help the industry raise funds at competitive rates and boost India's trade. However, the cement stocks witnessed some pressure on reports that the government is considering banning import of pet coke - a cheap fuel used by cement, paper, brick kiln, chemicals and textile industries-to cut industrial pollution that’s contributing to hazy skies. The possible ban will be discussed on Tuesday, when oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan deliberates the issue with secretaries of several departments.
