Domestic Market View
Markets to remain in jubilant mood with a positive
start
The Indian markets after going through a volatile
trade on Saturday, the special trading on Budget day,
managed a positive close and traders slowly came to
the terms of the Budget after analyzing it. Today, the
start is likely to be in green and the markets will carry
forward the budget euphoria with sector and stock
specific action based on budget announcements. Infra
stocks will be in action with the announcement of
different measures in the budget, there is proposal to
set up 5 ultra mega power projects, each of 4000MW
and Tax-free bonds for projects in rail road and
irrigation. Government has also said to revitalize the
PPP model for infra with taking maximum risk. Today,
there will also be buzz in the PSU stocks as the
government has proposed to mop up Rs 69,500 crore
through PSU disinvestment and strategic sale of
equities in 2015-16. Apart from the budget
announcement of hike in service tax from 12.36 per
cent to 14 per cent for travel by air in first and
business class, aviation stocks are likely to be under
pressure with hike in Jet fuel prices by steep 8.2 per
cent. The metal and mining stocks are once again
likely to be in lime light with the government telling the
nominated authority in charge of e-auctioning coal
blocks to re-examine the bid process for the blocks
won by alco, JSPL and BS Ispat recently, following
certain “prima facie discrepancies” including
questions over the bid prices.
Domestic Market OverView
Market manages a positive close on Budget trading session after extreme volatility
The special trading called by the marketmen on the Budget day was extremely volatile and at one
point of time seemed not going down well with the major bourses tanking by about half a percent
after showing gains of around a percent in earlier deals. The Finance Minister pegging fiscal deficit
target for FY16 on higher side at 3.9 per cent versus 3.6 per cent earlier, was one of the major factor
taking the markets lower for the day. However, things improved in the latter part of the day and
traders after analysing the budget impacts, went for selective buying taking the markets to a
respectable high.
Different announcements of the Union Budget kept guiding the market movements for the day. The
budget 2015-16 was a mixed bag for the corporate, as the rate of corporate tax was announced to be
reduced to 25% over next four years, while it was announced rationalize & remove exemptions for
corporate over four years. Also, the Service tax increased to 14 per cent. Sectorally, as expected
infra received the major thrust, Rs 25,000 crore has been allotted for Rural Infrastructure
Development Bank, Rs 5,300 crore to support Micro Irrigation Programme, Tax-free bonds for
projects in rail road and irrigation, setting up 5 ultra mega power projects, each of 4000MW, Rs 75
crore for electric cars production. As on whole Rs 70,000 crores has been alloted to Infrastructure
sector. The disappointment was for the middle class income tax payers as the FM proposed no
change in the rate of personal income-tax. Instead proposed to levy a surcharge at the rate of 12%
on individuals, HUFs, AOPs, BOIs, artificial juridical persons, firms, cooperative societies and local
authorities having income exceeding Rs 1 crore.
There were some indirect measures announced for the tax savings, through which the FM said that
an individual can achieve exemption of upto Rs 4,44,200. Back on street, while the benchmarks
bounced back, the broader indices were not that lucky and they made a mixed closing. However, the
remarkable point of the trade was Nifty closing at its one month high. Sectorally, banks were in most
jubilant mood with budget target of Rs 8.5 lakh crore of credit during the year 2015-16.Healthcare, oil
& gas, IT and technology sectors moved higher on supportive announcements, while FMCG,
Consumer Durables, power and realty suffered profit booking, on some rise in excise duty and
service tax. Jewellery stocks erased initial gains lacking any announcement on reduction of import
duty on gold.
Global Market Overview
US markets closed lower on weak economic data
The US markets closed lower on Friday, with the main indexes finished the week roughly where they
started it, but still booked hefty monthly gains. On the economy front, consumers spent a bundle in
fourth quarter, fresh government statistics confirm, but the US economy as a whole grew slower than
initially reported owing to a smaller buildup in business inventories. Gross domestic product
expanded by a 2.2% annual clip in the final three months of 2014, down from an initial read of 2.6%.
That’s a sharp deceleration from a torrid 5% pace in the third quarter that marked the fastest US
growth in 11 years. GDP is the value of all the goods and services the US produces and it’s the best
reflection of the nation’s economic health. For all of 2014, the US grew at a 2.4% clip. The February
reading of Chicago PMI tumbled to a five-and-a-half year low of 45.8. The reading, down from 59.4 in
January and below the 50 mark measuring contraction, came after double-digit drops in production,
new orders, order backlogs and employment.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 81.72 points or 0.45 percent to 18,132.70, Nasdaq was down
24.36 points or 0.49 percent to 4,963.53 while, S&P 500 dropped 6.24 points or 0.30 percent to
2,104.50.

Power utilities, regulator to be given greater autonomy for higher efficiency in energy sector: World Bank
World Bank, in a study report has suggested that in order to enhance the competition and accountability in the energy sector, state
power utilities and regulators should be 'freed' from political interference. It highlighted the need of state government to give greater
operational autonomy to their power utilities and regulators, while holding them accountable for performance if the sector was to
move to a higher level of service delivery.
The study, titled ‘'More Power to India: The Challenge of Distribution", which consisted a review of the country's power sector
across key areas of access, utility performance and financial sustainability was conducted at the request of the Union Government.
The report mainly pointed that despite the unbundling and corporatization of State Electricity Boards and the establishments of State
Electricity Regulatory Commissions (SERCs) following the Electricity Act of 2003, a commercial operational culture had still not been

Supreme Court after hearing petition of a host of telecom operators questioning certain provisions of the notice inviting tender issued
by the government on January 9, has refused to stay spectrum auction in all 17 circles scheduled for March 4, but has told the Union

and passed orders. The court further stated that telecom companies participating in the auction will not claim any benefit on the
basis of equities and to avoid such claims, an order in this regard would be published on its website.

S&P sharply revises India's growth forecast for the next several years
Giving a shot in arm to the government, the global rating agency Standard & Poor’s (S&P) has sharply revised India's growth
forecast for the next several years to reflect a recent change in how gross domestic product is calculated by the government. S&P
revised upwards GDP growth forecast to 7.9% for 2015-16 and 8.2% in the year after, crediting the move to rising investment and
fall in oil prices. The agency also raised its growth forecast for 2016-17 to 8.2 percent from 6.6 percent previously.
S&P which currently rates India at “BBB-“ with a “stable” outlook had recently said that India must boost growth, cut its fiscal deficit
and fulfill promises of financial and fiscal reforms to justify an upgrade in a credit rating, has now said that the Indian economy
should be a 'bright spot' in Asia.
Regarding Asia-Pacific, the agency said growth in the region will be slightly lower, but India's “star is rising.” It also lowered growth
forecasts for a slew of Asian countries, including China and Japan and said that weaker growth in China and Japan may be
weighing on the overall sentiment.
