Stock Market LIVE Updates: Technical view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: "The index has witnessed a significant recovery from negativity as the Nifty reversed momentum following an inverted hammer pattern. On the hourly RSI, a hidden positive divergence is visible. However, sentiment remains “sell on rise” as long as the index stays below 24,850. Only a decisive move beyond 24,850 might induce a rally towards 25,250/25,500. On the lower end, support is placed at 24,500."

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Expert's view

Stock Market LIVE Updates: "India’s Q1 GDP growth of 7.8 per cent, exceeding projections, has reinforced investor confidence in the economy’s resilience amid global uncertainties. Expectations of GST rationalisation at the upcoming council meeting continue to bolster sentiment, supporting discretionary consumption. This optimism is particularly benefiting sectors such as Auto and Consumer Durables. However, the risk of a potential revenue shortfall from proposed GST slab adjustments has heightened concerns over increased government borrowing, pushing domestic bond yields higher. Additionally, the impact of recently imposed tariffs is expected to become more evident from Q2 onwards, with markets awaiting greater clarity on their wider economic implications, which will be pivotal in determining near-term market trends."

Stock Market LIVE Updates: GST 2.0 should pave way towards single nationwide tax rate: Report

Stock Market LIVE Updates: The long-term success of Goods and Services Tax (GST) lies in moving towards a single nationwide tax rate, and that GST 2.0 must act as the stepping stone by keeping to just two slabs 5 per cent and 18 per cent while capping the peak rate firmly at 18 per cent, not 40 per cent, a report said.

 

"Creating a 40 per cent slab, even for a narrow set of sin or luxury goods, will set a precedent for creeping expansion. Over time, more items will be drawn into this category, undermining the very purpose of simplification," Think Change Forum, a think tank, said in a report on Monday. READ MORE

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Trump plans hefty tax on imported drugs, risking higher prices, shortages

Stock Market LIVE Updates: India's strong GDP growth fails to boost equity markets amid US tariffs

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Cut GST on automotive tyres, don't treat them like luxury goods: ATMA

Stock Market LIVE Updates: Automotive Tyre Manufacturers Association on Monday sought a reduction of GST rates on tyres for automobiles to 5 per cent from the current 28 per cent, while asking the government not to treat it on par with luxury goods, citing its cost impact on key sectors such as transportation, agriculture, mining, and construction.
