revival package got dimmer. Markets were also hit by news of financial
irregularities in a domestic multinational power company.

0.33% to close at 37,328.01 and 11,017.00, respectively. S&P BSE Mid‐
Cap and S&P BSE Small Cap lost 0.60% and 0.62%, respectively.
The overall market breadth on BSE was weak with 875 scrips advancing
and 1577 scrips declining. A total of 131 scrips remained unchanged.
On the BSE sectoral front, S&P BSE IT was the major gainer, up 1.34%,
followed by S&P BSE Auto and S&P BSE Teck, which gained 1.18% and
1.07%, respectively. S&P BSE Consumer Durables and S&P BSE Consumer
Discretionary Goods & Services gained 0.36% and 0.32%, respectively.

Reserve Bank of India (RBI) deputy governor has asked bankers to
ensure timely resolution of stressed assets under the new framework to
get the best value. He underlined the need for dealing only in "genuine"
cases. RBI will release the final guidelines for private and foreign bankers'
compensation soon, he said. RBI's revised framework on resolution of
stressed assets introduced on Jun 7, 2019, is "less intrusive" as it gives
banks the leeway to draft their own resolution plans for a particular case,
he added.
The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) is seeking new ways to tax
global tech companies that invoice their revenues out of India and
maintain operations in the country with minimum profits. The tax
department will consult the Organization for Economic Co‐operation and
Development at a conference next month, media reports said quoted a
senior official. The move comes at a time when developed internet
economies around the globe are exploring fresh methods of taxing big
technology firms.
Fortis Healthcare Ltd plans to cut a fifth of costs to save the country’s
second‐largest hospital chain. A regulator has found Fortis was deceived
of tens of millions of dollars by its former owners. Fortis’ new chief
executive officer is now looking to cut spending in everything from
energy‐efficient light fixtures to automating its business analysis unitand
even renegotiating doctors’ salaries. The aim is to reduce expenses by
$31 million over the coming two years.
Maruti Suzuki India Ltd has launched a scheme offering free warranty
for 5 years or 1 lakh kilometres to customers across India for its diesel
vehicles. This comes amid demand at an all‐time low.
Shell India has offered to sell its 10% stake for over Rs. 700 crore held in
the city gas distribution business of Mumbai‐based Mahanagar Gas Ltd
(MGL), through a block deal on the bourses, media reports said. When
MGL was listed in Jul 2016, Shell had acquired a 34% stake in the
company through its wholly‐owned subsidiary BG Asia Pacific Holdings
Pte. Last year, it offloaded 24% of its shareholding in two tranches. Shell
India is the local arm of Netherlands‐based Royal Dutch Shell Plc.
Asian equity markets were mostly higher as the U.S. again delayed a full
ban on doing business with a Chinese tech major. Investors saw this as a
possible breather in the U.S.‐China trade dispute. Today (as of Aug 21),
Asian markets opened lower as investors reacted to the fall in overnight
U.S. markets on recession fears. While Nikkei was trading lower 0.39%,
Hang Seng was up 0.04% (as at 8.a.m. IST).
European markets ended lower as political instability concerns
burdened investors after Italy’s Prime Minister announced he would
resign from the government.
U.S. markets fell as recession fears made investors cautious. Media
reports saying that the government was discussing a cut to payroll taxes
to alleviate slower economic growth added to such fears.
