MARKET COMMENTERY

Index heavyweight and housing finance major HDFC led losses for key benchmark indices. Shares of the housing finance major edged lower after the company reported a muted growth in bottom line in Q1 June 2015. The barometer index, the S&P BSE Sensex, was provisionally off 102.76 points or 0.37% to 27,458.62. The market breadth indicating the overall health of the market turned negative from positive in late trade. The market sentiment was edgy after the latest data showed that foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) pressed sales of Indian stocks yesterday, 27 July 2015.

STOCK BUZZ
 
1. HDFC fell 2.64% to Rs 1,300. The company's net profit rose 1.21% to Rs 1360.98 crore on 9.39% rise in total income to Rs 7068.28 crore in Q1 June 2015 over Q1 June 2014. The result was announced during market hours today, 28 July 2015. On consolidated basis, HDFC's net profit rose 17.69% to Rs 2204.29 crore on 13.76% growth in total income to Rs 11440.62 crore in Q1 June 2015 over Q1 June 2014.
2. Most power generation stocks declined. JSW Energy (down 7.45%), Jaiprakash Power Ventures (down 3.92%), Reliance Power (down 1.86%), GMR Infrastructure (down 1.79%), Torrent Power (down 1.16%), Adani Power (down 0.37%), Tata Power (down 0.14%), edged lower. Reliance Infrastructure (up 0.14%), CESC (up 0.26%), NHPC (up 0.27%) and NTPC (up 2.13%) edged higher.

HOT PURSUIT
 
1. Meanwhile, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Raghuram Rajan reportedly said yesterday, 27 July 2015, that inflation targets should not be changed every three years as that would mean changing goal posts as soon as the system starts to internalize it. The RBI governor's comments follow the release of a new draft of the proposed Indian Financial Code which suggested that inflation targets should be reset every three years following consultations between the government and the RBI. The draft also suggested setting up a seven-member monetary policy committee (MPC) which would have four members appointed by the government. An earlier proposal to give the RBI governor veto power over decisions of the MPC has also been removed.

2. Meanwhile, India's weather office, the India Meteorological Department (IMD), said in its daily monsoon update issued yesterday, 27 July 2015, that the Southwest Monsoon was vigorous over Rajasthan and Gujarat state and was active over Gangetic West Bengal, Odisha and West Madhya Pradesh during the past 24 hours until 8:30 IST.
