• Indian equity markets commenced the new trading week on a positive
note with investors taking positive cues from the strength in the Asian
markets. Asian markets largely remained positive as concerns over U.S.
political deadlock eased to some extent after the policymakers managed
to end a brief government shutdown with a bill raising spending caps and
funding the government until Mar 23.
• Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 went up 0.87%
and 0.81% to close at 34,300.47 and 10,539.75 respectively. S&P BSE
Mid-Cap and S&P BSE Small-Cap rose 1.31% and 1.60%, respectively.
• The overall market breadth on BSE was positive with 2,050 scrips
advancing and 764 scrips declining. A total of 164 scrips remained
unchanged.
• On the BSE sectoral front, barring S&P BSE IT and S&P BSE Teck, all the
indices closed in the green. S&P BSE Power was the top gainer, up 1.87%,
followed by S&P BSE Realty and S&P BSE Capital Goods, which rose
1.73% and 1.65%, respectively. S&P BSE Utilities and S&P BSE Industrials
rose 1.64% and 1.57%, respectively.
• The Consumer Price Index (CPI)-based inflation or retail inflation grew
5.07% in Jan 2018, down from 5.21% MoM and up from 3.17% YoY.
Retail inflation growth thus surpassed Reserve Bank of India’s medium-
term target of 4% for the third consecutive month. The Consumer Food
Price Index also grew 4.70% in Jan 2018, down from 4.96% MoM and up
from 0.61% YoY.
• India’s Index of Industrial Production (IIP) grew 7.1% in Dec 2017 as
against upwardly revised growth of 8.8% in Nov 2017 (8.4% originally

manufacturing sector also surged 8.4% in Dec 2017 from 0.6% in the
same period of the previous year. However, IIP growth for Apr to Dec
2017 slowed to 3.7% from 5.1% in the same period of the previous fiscal.
• According to the data released by the Society of Indian Automobile
Manufacturers, domestic passenger vehicle sales were up 7.57% to
285,477 units in Jan 2018 as against 265,389 units in Jan 2017. The
upside was driven by robust growth of utility vehicles (UV). UV sales
came in at 85,850 units, up 37.88% as against 62,263 units in Jan 2017.
• Aditya Birla Capital has planned to invest Rs. 10 billion each year to
grow its non-banking financial company and housing finance company
for strengthening its retail and SME loan book.
• Gail has reported increase in net profit by 28.40% YoY to Rs. 1,262.22

crore in quarter ended Dec 2016. Company’s board has recommended
issuance of one bonus share for three existing shares.
• Larsen & Toubro's hydrocarbon engineering arm has received orders
worth over Rs. 2,200 crore from Al Dhafra Petroleum Operations
Company of Abu Dhabi. The order involves engineering, procurement
and construction work for field development for Al Dhafra Petroleum.
• Lupin has launched its generic Oseltamivir Phosphate capsules in the
U.S. market after getting approval from the U.S. health regulator. The
capsules are used for treating influenza.
• Asian markets moved up after taking positive cues from overnight U.S.
markets after the U.S. government unveiled a long-awaited
infrastructure plan. Sentiments also got support after the People's Bank
of China mentioned that the Chinese banks lent a record amount of new
yuan loans in Jan 2018. Today (As of Feb 14), Asian markets opened
mixed. Gains in Wall Street’s last session boosted the indices. However,
weakness in auto and technology stocks negatively impacted the indices.
While Nikkei fell 0.09%, Hang seng grew 0.83% (as at 8.a.m. IST).
• As per the last close, European market ended lower amid gains in euro
against the dollar ahead of the release of U.S. inflation data on Feb 14.

weighing on the indices.
• As per the last close, U.S markets ended almost higher as the major
averages continued to recover from correction levels. Gains in tobacco,
retail and real estate stocks boosted the indices. Meanwhile, investors
looked ahead to the consumer prices and retail sales data scheduled on
Feb 14.
