• Indian equity markets dipped, dragged by banking stocks, which
witnessed selling pressure after a major state-owned bank detected
some fraudulent and unauthorised transactions worth about Rs 1.13
trillion ($1,771.69 million) at one of its branches in Mumbai. Weak cues
from Wall Street amid inflationary pressure too dented investor
sentiments.
• Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 fell 0.42% and
0.32% to close at 34,155.95 and 10,500.90, respectively. S&P BSE Mid-
Cap and S&P BSE Small-Cap rose 0.17% and 0.16%, respectively.
• On the BSE sectoral front, majority of the indices closed in the red. S&P
BSE Bankex was the major loser, down 1.62%, followed by S&P BSE
Healthcare and S&P BSE Power, which slipped 0.69% and 0.68%,
respectively. S&P BSE Finance and S&P BSE Utilities fell 0.62% and 0.54%,
respectively. S&P BSE Energy was the top gainer, up 0.78%, followed by
S&P BSE Telecom and S&P BSE Industrials, which rose 0.68% and 0.45%,
respectively.
• The government announced that goods and service tax (GST) will not
be charged on the cost of food served to patients by hospitals as advised
by doctors. However, patients not admitted will have to pay tax on the
total value of food served by the hospital. The revenue department also
clarified that no GST would be levied on services provided by senior
doctors/ consultants/ technicians hired by the hospitals as these are
covered under healthcare services.
• The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is set to crack down
on companies whose financial statements have either been falsified or
incorrect business records have been approved by auditors. It is
mandatory under law to report to the government and report any fraud
they come across while auditing the books of accounts of companies.
• Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited has received an order from NTPC Ltd.
The order worth Rs. 560 crore is for the supply and installation of the
flue gas desulphurisation system for 2x490 MW National Capital Power
Station at Dadri in Uttar Pradesh.
• Indian Overseas Bank announced that its net loss widened to Rs.
971.17 crore during the third quarter of FY18 as against a loss of Rs.
554.44 crore on a YoY basis. The decline reflects bad loans ratio that
remained more than 20%.
• According to the media reports, Punjab National Bank announced that
it had detected "fraudulent and unauthorised" transactions worth about
$1.77 billion at one of its branches in Mumbai. The bank did not name
the people involved. However, it stated that it had reported the deals to
law enforcement agencies.
• Sun Pharmaceuticals posted consolidated net profit of Rs. 365.39 crore
for the quarter ended Dec 2017, down 75.17% YoY from Rs 1,471.82
crore. Total comprehensive losses for the company came in at Rs. 503.23
crore as against Rs. 1,523.69 crore in the year-ago quarter.
• Asian markets traded in mixed ahead of the Lunar New Year holidays in
China and upcoming U.S inflation data which will provide further cues on
Federal Reserve’s future rate hike stance. Japanese market moved down
on stronger yen and after data showed that the country's GDP grew at a
slower than expected 0.5% annual pace in the fourth quarter. Today (As
of Feb 15), Asian markets opened higher amid strong lead from Wall
Street’s last session. Nikkei and Hang seng grew 1.63% and 1.05%,
respectively (as at 8.a.m. IST).
• As per the last close, European market ended higher amid strong GDP
data for Germany and the Eurozone in 2017 and strong corporate results
by some of the majors. However, stronger than expected U.S. inflation
data for Jan 2018 capped the gains.
• As per the last close, U.S markets ended almost higher as gains in
banking and technology stocks boosted the indices. However, gains were
capped amid stronger than expected inflation data and weak retail sales
data for Jan 2018.
