Welcome to CNBC-TV18's Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are top developments from around the world ahead of the trading session of January 29 -After showing weakness from Friday's highs, the Nifty50 witnessed a sharp sell-off on Monday, closing at a 7-month low. The index managed to hold levels above 22,800 but ended the day 263 points lower at 22,829, with 42 out of 50 stocks closing in the red. -Most heavyweights saw a closing in the red while ICICI Bank ended higher after Q3 earnings. FMCG stocks like HUL and Britannia were among the top Nifty gainers, both rising over 1%. On the other hand, the IT index fell 3%, dragged down by global cues. HCL Tech, Tech Mahindra, and Wipro were the top Nifty losers. -Going ahead, market sentiment remains on the edge as investors brace for Wednesday's Federal Reserve rate decision and accompanying policy guidance. This unease is further fueled by mixed earnings reports, geopolitical tensions, and the impending Union Budget, all of which have contributed to the prevailing uncertainty. -Stocks to watch: Coal India, Tata Steel, Indraprastha Gas, Kaynes Technology India, Piramal Enterprises -Earnings: Bajaj Auto, Hindustan Zinc, Hyundai Motor India, Bharat Heavy Electricals, Cipla, JSW Energy, Suzlon, ideaForge Technology, and TVS Motor Company -Additionally, global developments weighed heavily on Indian markets. The recent launch of DeepSeek, a Chinese AI startup, and former U.S. President Trump's abrupt tariff announcement on Colombia have created fresh headwinds. DeepSeek's emergence as the No. 1 free app on the iOS App Store has intensified concerns, as it positions itself as a free alternative to ChatGPT, which has signaled its intention to shift toward a for-profit model. -Global cues: Most Asian shares dropped following a bruising session on Wall Street caused by fears the valuation of artificial-intelligence companies had become excessive. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index slipped as much as 0.6% with Japan's largest technology firms leading declines. That was after the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 both tumbled Monday as a cheap AI model from Chinese startup DeepSeek fueled concern valuations may be hard to justify. Many Asian markets, including China and South Korea, are shut Tuesday for the start of the Lunar New Year holidays. -In commodities, oil steadied — after sinking by nearly 2% on Monday. Brent crude traded near $77 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate was above $73. -This morning, GIFT Nifty was trading at a premium of nearly 100 points vs Nifty Futures' Monday's close, indicating a gap-up start for the Indian market.

Here are top news from around the world ahead of the trading session of October 21 -The market recorded its third consecutive weekly loss, marking the longest losing streak of 2024, despite a surge on Friday that helped reduce the decline. A recovery in banking majors during the final session helped pare some losses, with both the Nifty and Sensex closing above 24,860 and 81,220, respectively. -Sector performance was mixed, with banking, financials, and realty posting decent gains, while auto, metals, and FMCG sectors were the top losers. The broader indices reflected a similar trend, as the midcap index lost nearly a percent while smallcap closed slightly positive. -Today, in the absence of any major triggers, market participants will focus on upcoming earnings for direction.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.1%, to its own record set the day before, and the Nasdaq composite gained 0.6%.

That was despite a slowdown in subscriber growth. -In US earnings this week, Tesla Inc. faces questions on its production targets and regulatory challenges after the unveiling of its much-hyped Cybercab failed to enthuse investors and quell concerns over its recent vehicle sales. -Now, despite the ongoing positivity in the US markets, the Indian markets have been largely unresponsive, a divergence likely to persist due to continued foreign fund outflows. Ajit Mishra of Religare Broking says that any change in the fund flow pattern would also be on the participants' radar. -This morning, the GIFT Nifty was trading flat versus Nifty Futures' Friday's close, indicating a muted-to-negative start for the Indian market.

-Welcome to CNBC-TV18's Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are the top developments from around the world ahead of the trading session of August 1  -It's yet another day of waiting for the Nifty to cross 25,000. Nifty and 25,000 are now separated by 49 points. It still seems a long way away considering the index came within 0.2 points of that on Monday, 30 points on Tuesday and 16 points on Wednesday but could not cross that landmark. 24,984 was the high made by the Nifty on Wednesday and that now becomes the first hurdle to cross on Thursday for the Nifty. -Global cues are important today as the US Federal Reserve has kept interest rates unchanged but Chair Jerome Powell said that a rate cut in September is "on the table" provided that data continues to be as encouraging as it currently is.  -Wall Street cheered the Fed commentary with the S&P 500 marking its best day since February this year, while the Nasdaq ended with gains of over 2%. -This morning in Asia, equities and US futures were broadly higher on firming signs that the Federal Reserve will soon cut interest rates. Japanese stocks fell to reflect a stronger yen. Equities in Australia and South Korea rose alongside Hong Kong share futures. Contracts for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 both climbed to compound Wednesday's advances ignited by a tech rally.  -In terms of commodities, oil prices rose in early Asian trading, extending strong gains in the previous session after the killing of a Hamas leader in Iran raised the threat of a wider Middle East conflict and on signs of strong oil demand in the U.S. Global benchmark Brent crude futures rose 0.8%, to $81.51 per barrel this morning.  -Back home, Nifty ended the month of July with gains of 3.9%, following up a 6.6% advance in June. August generally has been a positive month for the Nifty as it has delivered positive returns in three out of the last four years. Last year saw the index fall 2.5%, but gained 3.5% in 2022, 8.7% in 2021 and 2.8% in 2020.  -The first day of the new month will also be the weekly options expiry of the Nifty 50 contracts. -Stock to track: Infosys, Coal India, Tata Steel, Bank of Baroda, Prestige Estates, Phoenix Mills, Relaxo Footwear  -Earnings: Adani Enterprises, Adani Ports, Sun Pharma, ITC, Tata Motors, Dabur, Kalyan Jewellers, Thermax, Tube Investments, HPL Electric and Power, and Godrej Agrovet  -The Gift Nifty was trading 0.02% ahead of the Nifty futures' Wednesday close, implying a flat start for the market today.   Tune in to the Marketbuzz Podcast for more cues

Welcome to CNBC-TV18's Marketbuzz Podcast. Here are all the developments from around the world ahead of the trading session on July 31 -And for the third day in a row, the question remains – will the Nifty 50 hit 25,000 today or not? Because Tuesday's trading session almost felt like a repeat telecast of Monday's episode. The Nifty opens higher, scales higher, makes a high, ignites hopes of scaling 25,000 yet again and then comes a sell-off in the final few minutes of the session, taking the Nifty back to the exact same levels at which it started the session at. -Today is also the last trading day of the month and as volatile a month as this has been, the index has so far gained 3.5% since the start of July. -Stocks to watch: Tata Consumer Products, Ajanta Pharma, Dixon Technologies, Indus Towers, Navin Fluorine, Torrent Power, Macrotech Developers -Earning: Four Nifty 50 constituents - Coal India, Mahindra & Mahindra, Maruti Suzuki and Tata Steel report results along with broader market names like Adani Power, Ambuja Cements, Aster DM Healthcare, Bank of Baroda, BHEL, Deepak Fertilisers, Birlasoft, Godrej Properties, Mankind Pharma, Prestige Estates and Zee Entertainment. -HDFC Securities' Nagaraj Shetti belives the short-term Nifty trend is choppy but the near-term trend remains intact, and that the overall chart pattern is indicating some more consolidation or a minor dip in the next 1-2 sessions before a bounce from the lows. -In terms of global cues, Asian stocks clung to familiar ranges on Wednesday after contrasting results from tech bellwether Microsoft and chipmaker AMD suggested a divide in the AI landscape while the yen was firm ahead of the Bank of Japan's policy decision. -Central banks dominate investor attention on Wednesday, with the decision from the Federal Reserve also due later in the day with markets expecting the U.S. central bank to stand pat on rates but indicate rate cuts are on the way. The BOJ on the other hand is expected to detail plans to taper its huge bond buying on Wednesday and debate whether to raise interest rates. -In commodities, oil rose for the first time in four sessions after an industry report pointed to a fifth week of drawdowns in US stockpiles. Brent crude for October traded above $78 a barrel after tumbling by 4.1% over the prior three days. Tune in to the Marketbuzz Podcast for more cues

The exit poll results were also on similar lines of market anticipation. -Most exit polls released predict a historic third term for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is projected to secure more than 350 seats, comfortably crossing the halfway mark in the Lok Sabha. Although it may fall short of the ambitious '400 paar' target -An exit poll conducted by News18 Poll Hub is expecting the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) to win between 355 - 370 seats for the Lok Sabha elections. The Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) is expected to win between 305 - 315 seats, which is nearly at par or slightly higher than the 303 seats the party won in 2019. -The Nifty had a forgettable last week as investors chose to book profit from record levels and wait for the exit polls outcome by sitting on the sidelines. The index ended 2% lower in the week gone by. Investors lost over ₹8 lakh crore courtesy of the weakness seen last week. However, they might look to recover most of that sooner or later, after the exit poll outcome. -Expert commentary is key to watch today, Prashant Khemka of White Oak Capital believes that the Nifty will be hitting levels of 50,000 in the next five years, which is more than double of where it currently is. Raamdeo Agrawal, Chairman and Co-founder of Motilal Oswal Group, believes this could mark the beginning of a 'higher for longer' market rally, especially if the BJP achieves its '400-paar' target. -Among the sectors that brokerages have bet on that are likely to be the key beneficiaries on the continuation of the current government would be PSUs, railways, defence, and other manufacturing and capex oriented sectors. Raamdeo Agrawal of Motilal Oswal though, expects the banks to emerge as the outperformers. CLSA also prefers larger banks due to the valuation comfort. -Stocks to watch: Hero MotoCorp, Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki India, TVS Motor, Mahindra & Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, Eicher Motors, Escorts Kubota, defence PSUs, railway stocks, Adani Ports, Canara Bank, Welspun Corp, Aurobindo Pharma, MOIL, Coal India, Ashoka Buildcon, REC, Inox Wind, Aarti Pharmalabs -On the global front, Asia-Pacific stock markets mostly rose Monday ahead of a private survey on China's manufacturing sector. Wall Street futures were calm ahead of the first trading day in June, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures up 25 points, or less than 0.1%. S&P 500 futures were flat, and Nasdaq 100 futures were down 0.1%. -Oil extended losses this morning after OPEC+ set out a plan to restore some suspended production as early as October, despite concerns over the demand outlook and robust supply from outside of the group.

Indian benchmark indices — Sensex and Nifty 50 — are likely to open the trading session of November 13 in green, a day after Samvat 2080 started on a strong note. On the day of Diwali Muhurat trading on November 12, Nifty 50 ended nearly 100 points higher at 19,523 and Sensex closed 350 points higher at 65,250. For the Nifty, 19,500-level was the level that the index managed to cross on the upside and that is now a key level to hold as it aims for 19,600. Meanwhile, the US markets ratings agency Moody's has downgraded the US credit rating outlook and thus, a certain amount of negative sentiment in US equity indices on November 10. However, for the last two consecutive trading weeks, all of the US indices ended with gains. In some further positive news flow for the domestic market, crude prices fell close to 5% in the week gone by with Brent futures now trading and hovering closer to the $80 a barrel mark. The earnings session has almost reached its final lap with a few more days left when listed companies will report their quarterly results. Grasim Industries and Manappuram Finance are due to report their earnings later in the day. Coal India, ONGC, SAIL, LIC, Biocon and Eicher Motors are among the other stocks in focus.

In the recent market activity, we observed a range-bound performance with minor fluctuations. The Nifty Bank yesterday closed with a modest gain of around 25 points, while the midcap index rose by approximately 91 points. However, the overall market sentiment saw a dip of 143 points in the Sensex, and the Nifty also struggled to breach the levels around 19,004 to 19,500. In terms of institutional participation, net selling prevailed, with institutions selling over 1,700 crores and buying around 1,500 crores. This suggests that institutions remained net sellers in the market. One significant influence on the global markets was the hawkish comments made by Powell, which affected the US markets. The S&P witnessed a correction, breaking its longest winning streak since 2021, and the Asian markets followed suit. Additionally, oil prices hovered around $79 to $80 per barrel in response to these developments. Despite the Nifty indicating a lower start, macroeconomic factors may provide some support to cushion the market fall. In terms of corporate earnings, several companies, including Biocon, Coal India, ONGC, Tata Motors, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, and Tata Chemicals, are scheduled to release their results, which will be closely watched by investors.

Led by the IT giants Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Infosys, the top listed companies by market capitalisation have reported net increase in employees to their total headcount in FY22, according to analysis from the annual reports. Of them, TCS closed the year ended March with all-time high net addition of 103,546 employees, while Infosys hired 85,000 fresh college graduates, with a net addition of 54,000 employees. IT companies are battling high attrition, fueled by a sharp rise in demand for automation and digitalisation across all industry sectors. The software behemoths are compensating the same with high fresher recruitments. Meanwhile, oil-to-telecom conglomerate Reliance Industries recorded the highest net addition during FY22 with 107,000 employees. In the banking services, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank added 21,486 employees and 7,094 in the financial year respectively. The hiring outlook is strong too in the near term. According to a teamlease report, the corporates “intent to hire” showed a substantial increase of 7% for the ongoing July-September quarter to 61% and it might hit 70% in the coming quarters largely driven by hiring from tier-2 cities. Now, if we look at most of the listed PSUs, employee headcount has shrunk in FY22. This was the trend observed across sectors. Employment in PSUs is categorised as ‘on-roll' and ‘off-roll'. Managerial staff, supervisory and non-executive employees fall under the on-roll category. Casual and contract workers are classified as ‘off-roll' staff. India's largest state-owned bank State Bank of India headcount was lower at 244,250 in FY22, compared with 245,652 in FY21. Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) too saw its employee strength drop marginally to 31,254. Meanwhile, BPCL employees fell to 8,594 in FY22 from over 9,000 in the previous fiscal. Meanwhile, Coal India and GAIL too saw its employee count drop. Indian Railways' ticketing and tourism arm IRCTC and SBI Life Insurance are the only companies among the top 15 PSUs that have reported an increase in the employee strength in FY22.   According to a report in a national daily, the fall in employee count has been coming down for many years. SBI saw its employee numbers go up when there was a merger with five other small banks in 2017-18. ONGC and NTPC had reported employee increase or hired many years ago. So, what explains this phenomenon and why are PSU companies not hiring or increasing their headcount? [Byte of Radhicka Kapoor, Senior Visiting Fellow, ICRIER]

Now is the time to help junior coal mining companies expand or help bring newcomers on board, amid high coal prices and solid existing and incoming demand, XMP Consulting senior coal analyst Xavier Prévost said this week. He noted, in a lecture hosted by the University of the Witwatersrand on June 8, that South Africa was poised to replace displaced coal supply from Russia, as many markets moved to boycott Russian exports following that country's invasion of Ukraine. For example, the European Union (EU) has agreed to a partial embargo on Russian oil, immediately impacting about 75% of Russian oil exports. “If South Africa can export 25% of what Russia used to export to Europe, we can make a fortune,” Prévost averred. If the EU is to ban all Russian coal imports by August 10, as planned, coal traders are anticipating a jump in European demand. Another promising opportunity is that of India's State-owned Coal India issuing tenders for coal procurement. The country's coal demand is expected to surge by 48% to 1.45-billion tons a year by 2029/30, from 980-million tons in 2021/22. About 7 GW of energy generation capacity is set to be commissioned in India over 2022 and 2023, with 39 thermal coal plants being built. In 2021/22, India added eight thermal coal plants totalling 4.49 GW of capacity. India imported 219-million tons of coal in 2021, and 47-million tons in the year-to-date. However, Prévost cautioned that India's interest in South African coal was limited, as high calorific value 6 000 kcal/kg coal (RB1), which South Africa produced, was too expensive and, conversely, RB3 (5 500 kcal/kg), used in sponge steel production was not in demand in the country, after India imposed export duties on some steel products. Once international prices start cooling, many consumers, including India, will resume imports. Coal has nonetheless seen a rebound in global demand in recent years. Apart from high pricing and reluctant buyers in some regions, with no deals for coal having been reported by the Richards Bay Coal Terminal in the last week, there are also the issues of South Africa's coal stockpiles being low and logistics – railways and ports – being highly inefficient. Prévost said State-owned freight utility Transnet's railway lines had been suffering under a scourge of vandalism and theft, while the ports were bearing the brunt of various negative impacts in recent years. He lamented that although there were huge opportunities for South Africa to continue supplying coal to the world, it needed to bring more coal miners on stream, resolve logistical issues and continue to develop cleaner coal technologies. “As a result of the current lack of incentives and capital to implement new coal projects, South African production is stagnant and old mines are almost exhausted or dropping production drastically. “What South Africa needs now is to bring new mines on stream,” he said. COAL RATIONALE Prévost advocates for continued use of coal currently and in the future, deeming it critical to the world as it provides affordable, much-needed electricity, as well as builds societies through its use in steel and cement. About 37% of the world's electricity is generated from coal, while nearly 70% of global steel production depends on coal, according to World Coal Association (WCA). “There is not another source of energy more dependable, abundant and cheap that can replace coal. Coal is the only alternative to energy poverty,” Prévost said, citing the WCA and adding that there were still 1.1-billion people globally without access to electricity. As it stood, China, Russia and the US had 98% of the world's 860-billion tons of coal resources, but there remained many undiscovered resources around the world. Russia was at risk of having no demand for its 225-billion tons reserve of coal, as President Vladimir Putin has rendered Russia's economy ‘cancelled', Prévost noted. There were enough coal resources to sustain production for 118 more years, whil...

India is the world's third-largest producer of electricity, and three-quarters of this electricity comes from coal-based thermal power plants. But despite having one of the world's largest coal reserves, the country is often teetering on the brink of a power crisis. Last year, it was an unexpected surge in demand as the economy picked up after a deadly Covid wave; this year, it's been an earlier-than-expected intense heatwave coupled with the war in Ukraine that is making coal imports costly and unaffordable. In fact, the power crisis rose to such a level that over 100 passenger trains had to be cancelled to make way for coal carriages. So, does India's coal shortage stem from a lack of proper risk allocation, inefficient coal production, or a failure to anticipate a surge in demand? In this edition of WorklifeIndia, we discuss what's behind India's power crisis.

India's power consumption spiked to an all-time high of 132.98 billion units in April amid the rise in mercury level in the country. According to India's power ministry, the country's electricity demand is expected to rise to 220 gigawatts in the next two months as meteorological department forecasts above normal maximum temperatures in west-central, north-west, north and north-eastern regions. It's not surprising then, that power-related stocks have been the favourable destinations with investors this year. The stock prices of power sector companies, including power generation and power distribution, have done materially better than benchmark indices.   Shares of companies like Adani Power, Tata Power, Power Grid, NTPC have surged from 2 to 175%, so far, this year. In comparison, the S&P BSE Power index has gained over 35%, while the benchmark S&P BSE Sensex index declined over 7% during the same period.   However, despite the rally, analysts remain bullish on related stocks and expect power utilities to benefit from the spread between rising power demand and acute energy crisis.   Speaking to Business Standard, AK Prabhakar, Head of Research, IDBI Capital, said NTPC will be the biggest beneficiary of coal-shortage crisis. He is positive on NTPC, Tata Power and Torrent Power. While power demand is likely to remain elevated till June, Coal India will be a beneficiary from peak power demand, he said. However, higher employee costs a worry for Coal India's margin.   That said, some industrial units in states like Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, are reportedly considering production cuts amid power outages. Moreover, the dwindling inventory of coal, which contributes nearly 80 per cent of India's power generation, has also failed to keep pace with the elevated energy demand.   Though stated-owned Coal India has ramped up supplies to power plants by 6.7 metric tons from a year ago, analysts remain uncertain whether the increased output would cater to both international as well as domestic demand. Analysts assume Coal India to benefit from higher volume growth due to accelerated dispatches of coal to power plants at domestic front.   According to Abhijeet Bora, Senior Analyst, Sharekhan by BNP Paribas says Coal India a beneficiary from higher volume growth YoY. Fixed costs dent outlook, while earnings outlook for power-generation companies remains intact, he says adding that he is bullish on NTPC, Power Grid and Tata Power.   Meanwhile, high prices of imported coal due to geopolitical uncertainties are expected to send power tariffs through the roof.  In March, merchant power prices surged to 8.2 rupees per unit as against an average of 4 rupees per unit.   According to a report by CRISIL Ratings merchant tariffs could remain over 6 rupees per unit this quarter – the highest in the past five fiscals.   Overall, with production reviving to pre-pandemic levels, the need for clean power supply also gives immense scope of growth for the power sector. Therefore, analysts expect the momentum in power stocks has more steam left.   Lastly, investors saw markets shut on a choppy note, as frontline indices Nifty 50 and Sensex closed 0.67% lower each. However, primary markets were abuzz as the mega LIC IPO was subscribed over 2.91 times on the final day. As regards today, investors will watch out for earnings report card of Asian Paints, Cipla, Vodafone Idea and Gujarat Gas.

The initial public offer of Life Insurance Corporation is set to open for subscription today.   At Rs 21,000 crore, the offer will be India's biggest issue till date. The next two biggest issues that hit the Street in the past were that of Paytm-owner One97 Communication, and state-run Coal India.   Globally, this is the world's fifth biggest IPO in calendar year 2022.   LIC's IPO witnessed robust traction from leading investors including SBI Mutual Fund, Axis Mutual Fund and Aditya Birla Sun Life MF. The company raised around Rs 5,627 crore from anchor investors on Monday, at Rs 949 per share. However, much of this amount was raised with the help of domestic mutual funds as foreign funds invested little over Rs 1,600 crore. Analysts say the low demand may be because of the present risk aversion among foreign portfolio investors. Nonetheless, the government is hoping to see bumper subscription levels for LIC, riding on the back of retail and non-institutional investors. Over 8,500 crore rupees worth of shares have been reserved for retail investors, policyholders and employees in the IPO. LIC policyholders are entitled to a discount of 60 rupees over the issue price, the retail investors will be offered the issue at a discount of Rs 45 per equity share. Therefore, if you are someone who is wondering whether to apply for India's biggest IPO amid market volatility, here're the key things that you should know. LIC's total assets under management is over 3.2 times the total AUM of all domestic private peers. It also enjoys premium based market share of 64%. At the upper price band of Rs 949, LIC is available at a price-to-embedded value of 1.1x, which is at a discount of 65% compared to the average valuation of private life insurance players. This valuation, analysts believe, factors-in most of the negatives that the insurer is currently facing.   Speaking to Business Standard, Nirav Karkera, Head of Research at Fisdom says LIC is conceding market share to private peers, and its huge dependence on sales agent network could be a vulnerability. LIC's profitability, margins remain under pressure, he says.  The company's lower value of new business margin, that is indicative of profit margin, was at 9.9% for FY21 compared with 23-26% for private players. It further has lower short-term persistency ratio relative to private peers, which shows lower customer stickiness.   However, the insurer's strong market presence, coupled with the highest return on equity ratio, domestically, is keeping analysts bullish on the issue.   According to Karkera, LIC is capable of recouping lost ground and the IPO could be a long-term value creation story. LIC's growth prospects outweigh challenges, he says.    B Gopkumar of Axis Securities, too, sees LIC as a long-term investment bet. While he expects the near-term market volatility to weigh on the stock performance, he believes the under penetration of insurance and improving financialisation of savings could make LIC a long-term value bet. Given this, analysts remain uncertain about the initial listing gains, but view the IPO as a mid-to-long term investment opportunity. As of Tuesday, the stock was commanding a premium of Rs 60 per share, indicating a likely listing gain of 6%.   Overall, though the markets are volatile, analysts believe there is enough liquidity in the Indian markets for a large issue like LIC to get enough subscriptions.

What can India do to address its perennial power shortage?

This year's March was hottest in over a century, leading to earlier-than-usual surge in electricity demand. The big mismatch in demand and supply forced several states to resort to power cuts. India gets 75% of its electricity from coal. And the average coal stocks at domestic power plants have fallen to nine days as of mid-April, the lowest in at least eight years.  This is way lower than the government-mandated norm of an average 24 days of stock. It prompted The All India Power Engineers Federation to warn of an impending energy crisis in 12 states.  The shortage of electricity as a percentage of demand has shot up to 1.4% this month compared to 1.1% in October when India last faced a serious coal shortage. Bihar, Jharkhand, Haryana and Uttarakhand are facing an electricity deficit of more than 3% each while Andhra Pradesh is facing a power shortage of 8.7%. According to Central Electricity Authority (CEA), as of April 17, out of 173 plants that it tracks, 101 are left with critical levels of coal stock. To supply coal to the thermal power stations, 453 wagons are required. While only 379 were available in the first week of April, which has now increased to 415. But the shortage is worsening the supply crisis.  State-run Coal India, which accounts for 80% of India's coal output, increased its production by 27% in the first half of April. But the world's largest coal mining firm said the escalating demand -- driven up by post-pandemic economic buoyancy and hotter than normal summer -- seem to be 'dwarfing' the supply increase.  Coal India has sharply reduced supplies to the non-power sector which includes aluminium smelters, cement factories and steel mills despite record production. It raised its supplies to the power sector by 14% in the first half of April.  Nomura has said that if supply does not catch up with the demand, it would result in more power outages in summer and a diversion of coal from non-power sectors, weighing on industrial output and increasing electricity costs. This can become "another stagflationary shock", it warned. So why does India face a recurring coal shortage and how can the issue be addressed? Even as power outages rise, the coordination between power, coal, and railway ministries has also come to the fore. Ashok Khurana, director-general of the Association of Power Producers told Business Standard that the blame game has always plagued the power sector. Coal India, on its part, said that it is coordinating with these ministries to build up stock at power plants but exhorted power plants designed to run on imported coal to meet their requisite imports set for the year.

After erasing morning gains and hitting a low of 59,084 in early deals, bulls lifted the BSE Sensex index over 853 points from the day's low. The index finally settled 673 points, or 1.14 per cent, higher at 59,856. Its NSE counterpart Nifty50, too, zoomed 181 points to settle above the 17,800-mark at 17,807.   NTPC, which gained over 5 per cent, was the top Nifty gainer. It was followed by ONGC, PowerGrid, SBI, Titan and RIL. On the downside, Tata Motors, Coal India, Sun Pharma, Shree Cement, and Tata Consumer Products capped the upsides for the index.   The broader markets, on the other hand, underperformed the benchmarks by a wide margin. The BSE MidCap and SmallCap indices ended with small gains of 0.05 per cent and 0.4 per cent, respectively.   Sectorally, banking shares were largely responsible for the up move throughout the day. The Nifty Bank index closed 1.2% up, led by gains in SBI, Axis Bank, Kotak Bank, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank. Another winner was the Oil & Gas index, which closed 1.3% higher. ONGC, Reliance, Gujarat Gas, GAIL, and IOC clocked gains ranging between 0.9 and 4%.   The IT index, which was an underperformer in the early part of the day, also recouped losses and closed in the positive zone. Pharma, on the other hand, could not recover and ended 0.8% lower.   The shares of sugar companies were also in demand. They rallied as much as 20 per cent amid heavy volumes on a strong outlook. Triveni Engineering & Industries soared over 12 per cent, crossing its previous high level hit on December 28 on the BSE.   Similarly, Balrampur Chini Mills surged over 14% to touch a new record high level. Others such as Dwarikesh Sugar and Uttam Sugar closed 20% higher on the BSE. Rating agency CRISIL expects sugar mills to see improvement in both revenue and profitability in the 2022 season on the back of a 16-17 per cent rise in sugar prices.   That apart, among stocks, share prices of Tata group companies Tata Teleservices Maharashtra and Automotive Stampings & Assembles were locked at the 5% upper circuit on the BSE. The stock prices of the two companies have zoomed over 2,400 per cent in the past one year, as against a 23% rise in the Sensex during this period.   On the down side, mining major Vedanta was among the top losers as the stock crashed over 6% on the BSE. Investors seemed to have been unimpressed with the company's aluminium output numbers for the Oct-Dec quarter. The company said it produced 579,000 tonnes of cast metal aluminium at its smelters in the December quarter, a 16 per cent rise from a year ago, but only a marginal jump of 2 per cent over the previous quarter. The Lanjigarh refinery, meanwhile, produced 472,000 tonnes of alumina, 8% less than in the preceding quarter.

The S&P BSE Sensex, which opened quietly, later gained strength during the day to hit a high of 59,266. The index then settled 929 points higher at 59,183 levels.   The NSE Nifty50, meanwhile, ended the day at 17,626, up 272 points after touching an intra-day high of 17,647. The top gainers on the index included Coal India, the Bajaj twins, Tata Steel, ICICI Bank, IndusInd Bank, and HDFC Bank. The laggards were largely from the pharma space, including Cipla, Dr Reddy's Labs, and Divis Labs. Nestle India, HUL and M&M were some of the other top losers.   After a stellar two-year run for the Nifty during which it even left the S&P 500 behind at times, analysts at global investment firm UBS believe that the index's current valuation does not fully reflect upcoming headwinds. In a report, it said these headwinds include rising interest rates, both globally and in India, and importantly, the return of India's current account deficits. Given these factors, a multi-month pause for the index may be in order, according to the report.   This apart, among sectors, all indices today clocked smart gains, barring the Nifty Pharma index, which ended 0.5 per cent lower.   Banks, Financials, Auto, and IT shares led the benchmark indices to their respective fresh highs of the day. The Nifty Bank and Private Bank indices were the top performers, rising 2.7 per cent each, followed by the Nifty Financial Services, which was 2.5% up.   The Nifty IT index closed 1% higher today after hitting a record high of 39,286. Individually, the shares of IT major TCS hit a 13-week high of Rs 3,829, up 2.5 per cent, in intra-day trade. The stock has gained 4 per cent in the past three days on the BSE, and hit its highest level since October 8, 2021. The company's December quarter results are scheduled to be declared on January 12.   Auto shares also remained in demand on the back of healthy sales data for the month of December. Auto majors Tube Investments, Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland, Bharat Forge and Maruti were among the top gainers on the Nifty, all of which ended between 1 and 7% higher.   Eicher Motors rallied 5.5 per cent on the BSE, for instance, after the company's Royal Enfield brand reported a 43 per cent rise in month-on-month sales at 73,739 units in December. The company reported its best reading in several months. On a year-on-year basis, the Royal Enfield sales grew 7 per cent.   Besides, the shares of textile companies also maintained their upward movement on improved outlook. Shares of Vardhman Textiles and Sangam India hit their respective record highs, while Cantabil Retail touched a 52-week high on the BSE.   Lastly, on the macroeconomic front, India's manufacturing activity lost some momentum in December, easing to a three-month low of 55.5, after hitting a 10-month high in November, amid fears that the rapidly spreading cases of Covid-19 may hit consumer sentiment and output.
