Indian markets took the cues from the global markets as the markets across the globe are showing strength. The two-day policy meeting of the Federal Reserve gets underway later today.

In order to mitigate the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war on the Indian economy, policymakers have deployed significant fiscal and monetary resources. The measures taken by RBI have helped India’s economic performance, which has arguably been better than its peers, as the growth recovery has been robust while inflation has risen by much less than in other economies.

12:53 (IST) 20 Sep 2022 US Fed policy decision: US FOMC may hike interest rate by 75bps, remains committed to bring inflation down

Federal Reserve officials have made it very clear that they will not slow the pace of rate hikes until they see convincing evidence that core inflation pressure is easing. More rapid pace of interest rate increases would slow the economy, the Fed may yet stick to a so-called soft-landing, lowering inflation but avoiding a severe downturn. Yet this seems difficult in the light of inflation remaining higher than expected. With a resilient labor market supporting strong wage growth, inflation has probably not begun its downward journey; keeping the Fed on an aggressive monetary policy path for a while. Read full story

08:17 (IST) 20 Sep 2022 Markets to trade range bound ahead of US Fed meet outcome on Wednesday

Markets are likely to remain range bound ahead of the US Fed interest rate decision to be announced 21Sep (Wednesday). While it is widely expected that Fed will go for at least a 75 basis points hike, however, given the stubbornness of US inflation and robust numbers from US data points like retail sales and a strong labor market, there is a high chance that the aggressive stance towards rate hike is likely to continue for a prolonged time. Even the Bank of England is likely to announce a 50bps rate hike to combat inflation and could keep global markets under pressure. US 2-Year bond have spiked to a 15-year high at 3.9% while the 10-year bond is hovering at 3.4%, thus implying that the short term pain could continue in the global markets. Back home, Indian markets are better placed compared to the other global markets due to strong macro factors, strong government policy implementation and oil prices falling to 7-month low.

Analysts at Mehta Equities said that despite uncertainty in the equity markets, Harsha Engineers was signalling a strong debut with a significant premium over its issue price of Rs 330 per share. “Considering the excellent response from the investor category, we assume that Harsha Engineers could list around Rs 480-500 levels, which translates to more than 45-51 per cent premium over the upper end of the IPO price band,” Prashanth Tapse, Research Analyst — Senior VP Research, Mehta Equities, said. He also added that high premium listing would be justified on the back of a virtual monopolistic business model in its product segment which generated a stronger than expected investor demand with the QIB portion getting subscribed over 178x times.

Tapse said that on valuation per se the ask price is fairly valued when compared to its industry peers. Analysts seem to be optimistic on Harsha Engineers with its dominant position and well placed to tap the growth in specialized precision components and bearing cage demand across all the industries. “We advise that allotted investors should look at booking profits for such healthy listings in the current market scenario, while risk takers can hold for a long-term perspective and if investors wish to add Harsha Engineers on listing day, it is better to wait and watch before taking any aggressive approach,” Tapse advised.

It is not often that you see a government move generating rather positive feedback in the initial stage. Yet the introduction of the initiative called ‘One nation, one student ID’ by the Department of School Education and Literacy, about last week, has managed to get the much needed support from the teachers community. “The move empowers educational institutions to operate more efficiently and provide a higher quality of education. With the use of this special ID, students will be able to keep all their academic information in Digilocker, the government’s digital wallet, along with information on their extracurricular and athletic achievements, which they can later use to apply for jobs and higher education. This system enhances security, ensuring that every student is easily identifiable,” Maithili Tambe, CEO, The Academy School, told FE Education.

The initiative introduced under National Education Policy 2020, is targeted towards both government and private school students to better the education management besides tracking students’ performance throughout the years. As per government officials, to create APAAR ID, students will have to fill in the basic information about their age, date of birth, gender and a photograph. This information will be verified using their Aadhar number. Students will be required to complete a consent form either agreeing or declining to share details of their Aadhar number and demographic details with the Ministry of Education for the purpose of establishing the identification card. In case of minors, parental consent has been made necessary for authentication through UIDAI. It’s important to note that registration for the creation of an APAAR ID is a voluntary choice and not an obligatory requirement.

For experts these cards are a blend of innovative ideation and technological advancement including cloud computing, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI). “Not only will we do away with paper usage and integrate sustainability, we are also going to add greater authenticity to marksheets and certificates because grades will only be uploaded by registered school administrators,” Monisha Sharma, director, The Lexicon Group, explained.

However, experts are quick to point out that collecting data and consent from students and parents can be a tedious task, and increase the work-load. “Teachers and schools may be burdened a bit at the start with the task of getting parental consent and collating data, but given the long-term benefits of creating unique identity for each student, I think it’s a challenge worth taking on,” Nambiar added.

Bears may drag Nifty to 16650 once 16700 support breached; 5 things to know before market opening bell

Posted on by

Benchmark indices BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty 50 are expected to open in the red as trends in SGX Nifty hinted at a negative opening for Indian equities. “The overall sell-off in the broader market has dampened the sentiments, and the 17000 mark seems to be a significant hurdle for Nifty. The technical structure looks very disruptive, with all indicators signaling the trend southwards. Going forward, the RBI monetary policy is slated in the coming session; hence, traders should keep a close eye on the event. Apart from this, global development should also not be overlooked, and therefore, one needs to avoid aggressive bets and focus on stock-specific actions,” said Osho Krishan, Senior Analyst – Technical & Derivative Research, Angel One.

Global market watch: Shares in the Asia-Pacific traded lower on Friday, following another sell-off on Wall Street overnight. Japan’s Nikkei 225 slipped 1.32%, and the Topix index fell 0.87%. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 lost 0.48%. The Kospi in South Korea declined 1% and the Kosdaq shed 1.13%. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan fell 0.15%. U.S. stocks tumbled in Thursday’s session, with the S&P 500 hitting a fresh low for the year and also reaching a new closing low. The index dropped 2.1% to end the session at 3,640.47. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average slumped 1.54%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite lost 2.84%.

Nifty technical view: “A long bear candle was formed on the daily chart, that has been placed at the edge of important support at 16800 levels. The market has been repeatedly testing the lower support of 16800 levels but was not gaining momentum on the upside. This is not a good sign, and this reflects that the said support could be broken on the downside soon,” said Nagaraj Shetti, Technical Research Analyst, HDFC Securities.

“Further weakness below 16800 levels, the market could slide down to the next key support around 16650 levels, which is a 50% Fibonacci retracement taken from the June bottom to September top. Any upside movement from here could encounter strong resistance around 17030 levels,” he added.

Levels to watch for: “The support for nifty has shifted around 16700 levels while on the upside 17050 may act as an immediate hurdle. On the other hand, Bank nifty has support at 37000 levels while resistance at 38500 levels. Overall, the Nifty is trading in the range of 16750-17050 level and either side breakout will show the direction. Pharma & media sector stocks are looking good for trade. One can add on dips,” said Palak Kothari, Senior Technical Analyst, Choice Broking.

RBI MPC decision: The RBI is expected to raise the repo rates by 35-50 bps in its September Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting. A 50 bps increase in key policy rates again this time will take it to a three-year high of 5.9 per cent. All eyes will be on RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das on Friday, 30 Sep 2022, who, in the previous policy review, had said that ’50 is the new normal for central banks’. The monetary policy committee is likely to take cues from its global counterparts, including the US Fed, to raise interest rates for the fourth time in a row.

U.S. stock indexes rose on Monday after sharp declines last week although losses in Tesla Inc capped the gains on the Nasdaq after the world’s most valuable electric-vehicle maker missed quarterly delivery targets. Ten of the 11 major S&P 500 sectors advanced in early trading, with the energy sector leading gains.

Megacap growth and technology companies such as Apple and Microsoft also advanced 1.5% each.”We could see a rebound in the beginning of the quarter simply due to the low sentiment and the lows that were reached at the tail-end of the last quarter,” said Jason Pride, chief investment officer for private wealth at Glenmede in Philadelphia.

“Meanwhile, major automakers are expected to report modest declines in U.S. new vehicle sales, but analysts and investors are concerned that a darkening economic picture, not inventory shortages, will lead to a drop in future car sales.Tesla Inc fell 7% after it sold fewer-than-expected vehicles in the third quarter as deliveries lagged way behind production due to logistic hurdles. Peers Lucid Group fell 2% and Rivian Automotive 3.9%.Oil majors Exxon Mobil and Chevron Corp rose more than 3%, tracking a jump in crude prices as sources said the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies are considering their biggest output cut since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Govt to release extra Rs 20K-cr to oil retailers as LPG subsidy

Posted on by

The Centre will likely provide an additional amount of around Rs 20,000 crore – over Rs 5,800 crore budgeted – to the state-run fuel retailers to compensate them for the under-recoveries on cooking gas in the current financial year, according to a senior finance ministry official. This means that subsidy on fuels, which was brought down to just Rs 241 crore in FY22, will rise significantly in the current year.

“The government recognises the fact that oil companies need some compensation. A final decision on the precise amount of compensation will be taken on how prices of Indian crude oil basket move,” the official told FE.

Even though no LPG subsidy has been transferred to the bank accounts of households since June 2020, an incomplete pass-through of costs to consumers has inflated the state-run oil marketing companies’ under-recoveries on this front. Also, the re-introduction of LPG subsidy under the Ujjwala Yojana –under which upto 12 LPG cylinders a year are given to 90 million people at the rate of Rs 200/cylinder — in May 2022 is seen to cost Rs 6,100 crore in FY23.

The three state-run retailers – IOC, BPCL and HPCL – which supply over 90% of domestic fuel supplies have suffered the worst quarterly under-recoveries in retail fuel sales in years in Q1FY23 by absorbing record international crude prices.

Nomura had estimated OMCs’ under-recoveries on LPG in Q1FY23 alone at Rs 9,000 crore. According to it, in H2 last year, the under-recoveries were to the tune of Rs 6,500-7,500 crore.

“Despite posting record gross refining margins ($17-32/bbl), in line with record Singapore benchmarks in Q1, overall earnings for the three OMCs have declined sharply in Q1, thanks to record high fuel retail losses of Rs 10-12/litre for petrol and diesel in the quarter,” according to ICICI Securities.

“OMCs not passing on the increase in crude oil costs to customers resulted in weak marketing margins. Crude oil prices were trading at elevated levels but prices of petrol and diesel at retail outlets were steady. Correction in crude oil prices may improve marketing profitability of these companies,” ICICI Direct in a report on September 10.

In the FY23 Budget, the Centre made a provision of Rs 5,800 crore for LPG subsidies, including a direct benefit transfer of Rs 4,000 crore for domestic use and another Rs 800 crore for the poor under the Ujjwala scheme.

Budgetary LPG subsidy came down from Rs 24,172 crore in FY20 to Rs 11,896 crore in FY21. The subsidy was just Rs 241 crore in FY22. Given that other fuels, including petrol and diesel, are decontrolled, the Centre’s Budget was almost completely freed from the burden of fuel subsidy in FY22, marking an end to a sticky and politically-sensitive item of revenue expenditure it struggled long to get rid of.

Since June 2020, the subsidies on domestic LPG have been limited to small amounts of freight subsidies for far-flung regions. The higher fuel subsidies may put further stress on the government finances already under pressure due to about Rs 2 trillion additional subsidies announced for FY23, mainly for food and fertiliser. It had also cut excise duty cut on petrol and diesel which will likely result in about Rs 85,000 crore revenue loss.
