India’s consumer inflation accelerated marginally to 2.86% YoY in Mar
2019 from 2.57% in Feb 2019 but slowed compared with 4.28% in Mar
2018. Food inflation rose 0.3% in Mar 2019 compared with fall of 0.66% in
Feb 2019. Fuel and light inflation also accelerated to 2.42% YoY from
1.24% in Feb 2019.
According to data released by the Central Statistics Office (CSO), India’s
Index of Industrial production (IIP) growth touched 20 month low in Feb
2019. IIP growth slowed to 0.1% YoY in Feb 2019 from 6.9% in Feb 2018
mainly due to fall in the manufacturing sector. The manufacturing sector
dropped 0.3% in Feb 2019 compared with a rise of 8.4% a year ago.
Cumulatively, during Apr 2018 to Feb 2019 industrial production increased
4%, marginally slower than 4.3% in the same period of the previous year.
According to a Reserve Bank of India (RBI) research, more consolidation
in India’s struggling banking sector will help lenders lower costs and
efficiently scale their operations. Labor cost efficiency, or output per
employee, moderated across the sector between 2005‐2018, according to
the paper. State‐run banks performed better than private rivals on this
metric because they slowed hiring and adopted technology, while larger
banks reaped the benefits of scale.
Infosys net profit rose 10.4% YoY to Rs. 4,074 crore in the March quarter
of 2019. Sequentially, net profit grew 13%. Revenues increased 19% YoY
and 0.6% QoQ to Rs. 21,539 crore. The IT major set FY20 constant
currency growth guidance at 7.5‐7.9%. It also declared a dividend of Rs.
10.50 per share. Operating profit grew 3.3% YoY and dropped 4.4% QoQ
to Rs. 4,618 crore.

crore in the March quarter of 2019. Total income went up 18.54% YoY to
Rs 39.203 crore. The company also announced a final dividend of Rs. 18
per equity share. Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) segment
revenue rose 17% YoY to Rs. 13,650 crore while Digital revenue jumped
46.4%.

Asian equity markets ended mostly higher on upbeat U.S. jobs data and
optimism over a potential U.S.‐China trade deal. First‐time claims for U.S.
unemployment benefits decreased to their lowest level in nearly 50 years
in the week ended Apr 6, 2019. Chinese trade data was a mixed bag as
exports rebounded to a five‐month high, while imports fell more than
expected. Today (as of Apr 15), Asian markets opened mostly higher after
upbeat China data on Friday improved investor confidence. Both Nikkei
and Hang Seng were trading higher 1.20% and 0.90%, respectively (as at 8
a.m. IST).

quarter results from two U.S. financial giants. This and optimism over U.S.‐
China trade deal outweighed concerns about global growth.
As per the last close, U.S markets rose following increase in share prices
of a U.S. financial giant on upbeat Mar 2019 quarter results. This result
neutralized some of the recent concerns about corporate results for the
quarter. Shares of a U.S. entertainment giant surged after it initially priced
its streaming service well below the existing major player.
Indian equity markets ended a volatile session higher. Investor focus
remained on the earnings season and the macro data due to be released
later in the day. Retail inflation and industrial output data was slated to
come out after market hours.

BSE Mid‐Cap and S&P BSE Small Cap gained 0.29% and 0.37%,
respectively.
