Sensex, Nifty jump on Cabinet boost, positive global cues
12-Dec-19   17:08 Hrs IST

The market ended with strong gains on Thursday, after multiple announcements by the Union Cabinet on Wednesday lifted investor sentiment. A rally in metal and financial shares pushed the Nifty above 11,950 mark.

Global cues were positive after the US Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged, as expected, at its policy meeting on Wednesday and signaled rate settings were likely to remain accommodative.

Some volatility was witnessed on account of weekly index options expiry on the NSE. Investors awaited retail inflation and factory output data scheduled to be released later in the day.

The barometer index, the BSE Sensex, rose 169.14 points or 0.42% to 40,581.71. The Nifty 50 index rose 61.65 points or 0.52% to 11,971.80.

The buying was broad based. The S&P BSE Mid-Cap index rose 0.69% and the S&P BSE Small-Cap index added 0.59%.

The market breadth was positive. On BSE, 1375 shares advanced while 1043 shares declined. A total of 174 shares were unchanged.

Data Releases Today:

India's industrial production (IIP) data for October 2019 will be announced on today. Industrial output in India dropped 4.3% year-on-year in September of 2019, following an upwardly revised 1.4% decline in August.

The Manufacturing production data for October 2019 will also be announced today. Manufacturing Production in the country decreased 3.90% in September of 2019 over the same month in the previous year.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) figures for November 2019 will also be unveiled today. India's retail price inflation rate climbed to 4.62% year-on-year in October 2019, the highest in over a year, from the previous month's 3.99%. Inflation rose above the Reserve Bank of India's medium-term target of 4% for the first time since July 2018, following recent cuts in interest rates.

Economy:

The Union Cabinet, chaired by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi, gave an approval authorizing National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) to set up Infrastructure Investment Trust(s) (InvIT) as per InvIT Guidelines issued by SEBI. This will enable NHAI to monetize completed National Highways that have a toll collection track record of atleast one year and NHAI reserves the right to levy toll on the identified highway. This move will also attract patient capital (for say 20-30 years) to the Indian highway market, as these investors are averse to construction risk and are interested in investment in assets which provide long-term stable returns.

Further, the Cabinet approved the proposal to make amendments in the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (code), through the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Second Amendment) Bill, 2019. The amendments aim to remove certain difficulties being faced during insolvency resolution process to realise the objects of the code and to further ease doing of business. Amendments to the Code to remove bottlenecks, streamline the CIRP and protection of last mile funding will boost investment in financially distressed sectors. Additional thresholds introduced for Financial Creditors represented by an authorized representative due to large numbers in order to prevent frivolous triggering of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP).

The Cabinet also approved a partial credit guarantee scheme for public sector banks (PSBs) to purchase high-rated pooled assets from financially sound Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs)/Housing Finance Companies (HFCs), with the amount of overall guarantee provided by government till the first loss of up to 10% of fair value of assets being purchased by banks or Rs 10,000 crore, whichever is lower. The scheme would cover NBFCs/HFCs that may have slipped into SMA-0 category during the one year period prior to 1 August 2018, and asset pools rated BBB+ or higher. The window for one-time partial credit guarantee offered by Government of India (GoI) will remain open till 30 June 2020 or till such date by which Rs 1,00,000 crore assets get purchased by the banks, whichever is earlier. Power has been delegated to the Finance Minister to extend the validity of the scheme by up to three months taking into account its progress.

The Rajya Sabha on Wednesday approved the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill, completing the legislative procedure for giving Indian citizenship to non-Muslim migrants from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh.
