Indian equity markets closed on a lower note as weak sales data from
automakers weighed on the markets. Metal stocks remained under
pressure as global base metal prices fell, thereby weighing on the
indices. Further, concerns over global growth outlook and uncertainty
ahead of 2019 general elections in India led to volatility. Fall in Nikkei
India Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index in Dec 2018 and
weakness in rupee added to the woes.
Additionally, weak global cues amid ongoing U.S. government
shutdown and disappointing China’s manufacturing data muted buying
interest. Investors remained cautious ahead of the corporate earnings
that is set to begin in the week ending Jan 11, 2019.
Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 fell 1.00% and
1.08% to close at 35,891.52 and 10,792.50, respectively. S&P BSE Mid-
Cap and S&P BSE Small Cap fell 1.26% and 0.74%, respectively.
The overall market breadth on BSE was weak with 1,637 scrips
declining and 923 scrips advancing. A total of 157 scrips remained
unchanged.
The Nikkei India Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI)
came in at 53.2 in Dec 2018 as against 54.0 in Nov 2018. Though the
score eased as against Nov 2018, the rise in production was among the
quickest witnessed in 2018. The decline reflects moderated growth in
new orders and output.
The finance ministry announced that the Goods and Services Tax (GST)
collection fell to Rs. 94,726 crore in Dec 2018 as against collection of Rs.
97,637 crore in Nov 2018. However, it stated that the compliance
improved as the total number of sales returns or GSTR-3B filed in Dec
2018 came in at 72.44 lakh, as against 69.6 lakh filed in Nov 2018. Also,
the finance ministry stated that the government has settled Rs. 18,409
crore to Central GST and Rs. 14,793 crore to State GST from Integrated
GST.
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) announced that it
has decided to implement mandatory physical settlement for all stock
derivatives by Oct 2019. The market regulator stated that beginning Apr
2019, the new system will be implemented in three phases. According to
SEBI, the stocks that are currently being cash settled, shall be ranked in
descending order based on average daily market capitalisation of the
company during Dec 2018. By Apr 2019, bottom 50 companies will be
moved to mandatory physical settlement, followed by the next 50
bottom companies which will be moved by Jul 2019 and the remaining
stocks will be moved to physical settlement by Oct 2019.
The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) has asked the Centre to
simplify the procedures of GST in 2019. It stated that if the procedures
were made simple, half of the seven crore small businesses can be
brought under the indirect tax regime.
The finance ministry announced that the direct tax-to-GDP ratio came
in 5.98% as against 5.57% in FY17 and 5.47% in FY16. This GDP ratio
marked to be the best in 10 years. Also, the ministry stated that the
demonetisation was done to move the country from being tax non-
compliant to tax compliant and the impact is visible on collection of
personal income tax.

Asian markets remained under pressure amid persisting concerns over
partial U.S. government shutdown. Investor sentiments soured after final
reading of a private survey showed that China's manufacturing sector
contracted for the first time in 19 months in Dec 2018 due to ongoing
trade friction with the U.S. Today (as of Jan 3), Asian markets opened
lower after a major tech company warned that its first quarter sales
would come in lower than previously expected. Hangseng fell 0.20% (as
at 8.a.m. IST). Nikkei remained closed.
As per the last close, European markets closed on a mixed note.
Concerns over ongoing U.S. government shutdown and China’s weak
manufacturing data for Dec 2018 weighed on the indices. However,
rebound in crude oil prices restricted the losses.
As per the last close, U.S markets closed almost higher after a volatile
session as weak Chinese manufacturing activity in Dec 2018 kept
investors wary. Selling pressure faded as investors picked up stocks at
reduced levels following steep losses in 2018. Gains in information
technology, banking and energy stocks helped boost the indices.

equity market plunged following weak Chinese date. The drop in

sentiment. The rupee closed at 70.17 a dollar, down 1.04% compared

uncertainty and oversupply concerns.
