Indian equity markets ended flat but were able to bounce back from
losses seen at the start of the session. Investors stayed on the sidelines in
a holiday‐truncated week. They also looked forward to U.S. Federal
Reserve's 2‐day policy meeting, ending May 1, 2019, and U.S. payroll data,
scheduled to be released on May 3, 2019.
Key benchmark indices S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty 50 lost 0.09% and
0.06%, respectively, to close at 39,031.55 and 11,748.15, respectively. S&P
BSE Mid‐Cap and S&P BSE Small Cap lost 1.16% and 1.27%, respectively.
The overall market breadth on BSE was weak with 706 scrips advancing
and 1814 scrips declining. A total of 166 scrips remained unchanged.
On the BSE sectoral front, S&P BSE Metal was the major gainer, up
1.44%, followed by S&P BSE Information Technology, up 1.36%, and S&P
BSE Oil & Gas, up 1.16%. S&P BSE Teck and S&P BSE Consumer Durables
gained 1.07% and 0.96%, respectively. S&P BSE Telecom was the major
loser, down 2.22%, followed by S&P BSE Realty and S&P BSE Auto, down
2.18% and 1.7%, respectively.
According to a report by a major global data and analytics company,
decline in Indian economic growth momentum in Oct‐Dec quarter of FY19
is likely to continue, largely owing to election related uncertainty. The
report says subdued consumption demand and election related
uncertainty is expected to weigh on India's industrial production.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) could approach the Election Commission
to put in place a new circular on bad debt resolution, according to media
reports. This would pave the way for smooth implementation of the
Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code and loan restructuring by banks. The move
is crucial after the Supreme Court set aside the controversial Feb 12, 2019,
circular issued by the previous RBI governor. RBI was initially planning to
issue the revised circular that is expected to give more flexibility in
restructuring stressed loans as against the rigid timelines for initiating
bankruptcy under the older directive.
The Centre has increased the import duty on wheat to 40% from 30% in
order to boost offtake of domestically produced grain. The decision comes
at the backdrop of the government’s plan of sell wheat in the open market
to offload excess grain from the storage units of Food Corporation of India
and state agencies.
The inter‐governmental agreement with the U.S. has been notified by
India regarding income allocation and taxes paid in order to help check
cross‐border tax evasion. The agreement is for exchange of country‐by‐
country reports on multinational companies and was signed by Central
Board of Direct Taxes chairman and U.S. ambassador to India in Mar 2019
and notified by the revenue department in Apr 2019. This deal will enable
both the countries to automatically exchange country‐by‐country reports
filed by the ultimate parent entities of multinational enterprises in the
respective jurisdictions, pertaining to the years commencing on or after
Jan 1, 2016.
Asian equity markets were mixed after China reported a slower pace of
factory activity for Apr 2019. This made investors worry over slowing
global growth. Investors also looked forward to a series of economic data
from Europe, the U.S. Federal Reserve's (Fed) monetary policy decision
and the latest developments on U.S.‐China trade front. Today (as of May
2), Asian markets opened on a mixed note after the U.S. Fed indicated that
it is not currently considering a cut in interest rates. Hangseng rose 0.12%
(as at 8.a.m. IST). Nikkei remained closed.
As per the last close, European markets closed almost on lower note as
investors remained cautious ahead of Fed's monetary policy
announcement. Meanwhile, volume of business was thin in the market as
some exchanges were closed for the May Day holiday.
As per the last close, U.S markets on a lower note after U.S. Fed’s
Chairman dashed investors’ hopes of interest rate cut in the near‐term.
Weakness in energy, steel, software and gold stocks weighed on the
indices.
