The Union Budget 2024 has introduced several changes that will impact traders in the Indian stock market: 1. Short-term capital gains tax on equity investments held for less than one year has been increased from 15% to 20%. 2. Long-term capital gains tax on equity investments held for more than 12 months has been raised from 10% to 12.5%. 3. Securities transaction tax (STT) on futures trading has been increased from 0.0125% to 0.02% and on options trading from 0.0625% to 0.1%. These tax hikes are expected to have a short-term negative impact on the stock market, as indicated by the decline in the Nifty 50 and S&P BSE Sensex indices after the announcements. However, the tax changes are also expected to bring more rationality to options trading and encourage long-term investing. The government aims to curb the frenzy in equity derivatives trading and speculative behavior. Overall, while the tax increases are marginal, they will likely push traders to be more cautious and focus on long-term investment strategies rather than short-term speculation. #Traders #Unionbudget #Finance #Taxrates #Investing

Indian Markets: A Mixed Bag with Potential Indian stock markets closed strong Yesterday, with the Nifty surging nearly 3%. However, experts caution that this might be a temporary high, with potential volatility ahead of the Union Budget 2024. Prime Minister Modi's meeting with leading economists today underscores the government's focus on crafting a budget that steers the economy in the right direction. Despite the caution, some analysts remain optimistic, projecting the Sensex to reach 90,000 by year-end. This optimism likely reflects confidence in the government's ability to present a growth-oriented budget. In the coming days, it's important to stay informed about both budget developments and corporate earnings reports, which can significantly impact market movements. #Budget2024 #PolicyWatch #BullishMarket #IndianEconomy #india

Panorama February 2024 edition is out now! Panorama is a meticulously crafted report that offers a comprehensive view of the macro factors and market trends shaping India's economic landscape. Download the full report here: https://360.one/24/A26fEb Here are the key insights from the report: 1. The increase in capital spending has been the main factor contributing to the higher fiscal deficit compared to FY19. However, improved direct tax collections and lower devolution to states have helped alleviate the impact on the Centre's finances. 2. The quality of government spending continues to improve, with capital expenditure as a percentage of GDP and total budgeted expenditure both showing improvement in the FY25 budget estimates. Post-pandemic, the government has also significantly reduced spending on subsidies to achieve fiscal consolidation. 3. Rural-centric spending experiences modest growth of 2.6% YoY in the FY25 interim budget. However, the allocation to rural housing significantly increases as the government prioritises housing for the middle class. 4. Gross borrowings are budgeted to be lower by Rs 1.3 tn in FY25. Aggressive fiscal consolidation benefits the debt market by restricting the borrowing required to finance the deficit. Small savings collections could also surpass budget estimates, reducing the government's borrowing requirements in the future. 5. The G-sec supply-demand outlook appears favourable, with large FPI debt flows expected due to the inclusion of Indian government securities in the JP Morgan emerging market bond index suite. 6. Liquidity conditions in the banking system remain in deficit, primarily due to substantial government balances held with the RBI. Short-term rates should ease as government spending picks up and the RBI's rate-cut cycle starts to get factored in. 7. OMO sales by the RBI and changing market expectations of the Fed rate cut cycle pose potential risks to the debt market outlook.
