Domestic markets are expected to open on a positive note after a sharp fall on Monday, as global markets rebounded. Though Indian stocks did not witness such a nosedive like Japan’s Nikkei, Nasdaq, or other markets in the Asia Pacific region, such as Korea and Taiwan, the sentiment has turned cautious, said analysts. According to them, small-cap and mid-cap stocks may remain under pressure while large-caps will remain relatively stable.

The Union government collected over ₹24,500 crore through GST on health insurance and reinsurance premium in the last three years, Finance Ministry data showed on Monday. This will further push the demand for lowering GST on health insurance.

GST on health insurance and re-insurance premium is 18 per cent. However, schemes such as Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY), Universal Health Insurance Scheme, Jan Argoya Bima Policy and Niramaya Health Insurance Scheme do not attract GST.

A perfect storm of global events has come together to trigger a correction in stock markets across the world. The first signs of weakness came from the so-called Magnificent Seven stocks, which rode the Artificial Intelligence (AI) narrative to propel the US Nasdaq-100 by threefold from Covid lows. Now though, a string of weak quarterly earnings from Tesla, Microsoft, Alphabet et al has led investors to question if they have been over-investing in AI without material revenues to show for it. Fears of an ‘AI bubble’ have already tanked the Nasdaq 100 by 11 per cent from its recent peak.

Notwithstanding the bloodbath in the equity markets, five new fund offers of mutual funds will open for subscription this week. Among them, there will be three passively managed funds of HDFC MF, Bandhan MF, Birla MF and two thematic funds of Motilal Oswal MF and Bank of India MF.

Of late, most of the mutual funds are building their passive offerings to attract new investors interested in equity investment after observing sharp run in equity indices.

Capital market regulator SEBI has directed asset management companies to adopt an institutional mechanism for identification and deterrence of market abuse including front-running and fraudulent transactions in securities. The mechanism consists of enhanced surveillance systems, internal control procedures and escalation processes to deter misuse of sensitive information.

Capital market regulator SEBI has directed mutual funds to value their investment in the AT-1 bonds issued by banks on Yield to Call basis as suggested by the National Financial Reporting Authority.

The National Financial Reporting Authority has recommended that since the market practice for AT-1 bonds has been observed to trade at or quote prices closer to Yield to Call basis, valuation of AT-1 Bonds on Yield to Call basis (adjusted with appropriate risk spreads) will be consistent with the principles of market-based measurement under Ind AS 113.

SEBI has proposed to make it mandatory for all bonus issues to be implemented within 15 days from the date of approval by board, and made available for trading within two days from the record date.

Though the ICDR Regulations prescribe overall timelines regarding implementation of the bonus issue, there are no specific timelines regarding credit of bonus shares and trading of such shares, from the record date of the issue.

The holding of domestic institutional investors (DIIs) rose to 16.23 per cent during the quarter. Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), however, saw its share across 282 companies decreasing to an all-time low of 3.64 per cent.

Contrary to ours and street expectation of margin compression due to weaker sales and mix, the division margin expanded by 20bps led by stable GM & tighter cost control.
