    With UPI, its wallets versus banks

    With UPI, its wallets versus banks

    • Banks are getting insecure about wallets and apps now getting into the payments market with the help of UPI, and ICICI Bank had recently blocked PhonePe, Flipkart's wallet app, from transactions with ICICI Bank accounts. NPCI has now stepped in and asked the bank to unblock the app, saying that they are compliant with UPI guidelines. 

    • Donald Trump becomes the US President today, and is prepared to sign a slew of executive orders during his first week that crack down on immigration, climate policy, and trade. His early steps are likely going to be a sharp break from the Obama era, and analysts are speculating that his early efforts will be pro-traditional industries like coal and steel. He may also try and crack down on US companies moving jobs abroad.

    Amazon and Flipkart may be fighting for a small e-commerce pie

    Amazon and Flipkart may be fighting for a small e-commerce pie

    • RBI Governor Urjit Patel has met with a parliamentary panel, and reportedly said that the bank has so far pumped over Rs. 9.2 trillion of new notes into India's banking system. About Rs. 15.4 trillion rupees of old notes had been withdrawn by demonetization. While the queues outside banks and ATMs have abated, the effect is still being felt across Indian industry, with consumer spending down in every area from autos to FMCG. 

    • The e-commerce blood war between Amazon, Flipkart and Snapdeal may be especially intense because India's e-commerce market may not be growing as rapidly as expected. According to LiveMint estimates, E-commerce sales in India were just around $14-14.5 billion in 2016, little changed from 2015, and the market does not seem to be on track to hitting the $60 billion target many analysts had estimated by 2020. Instead, it may be at least another decade before India nears the size of China's $630 billion e-commerce market.

    Government wants a dividend of up to $2.2 billion from Hindustan Zinc Ltd (HZL), sources say

    Government wants a dividend of up to $2.2 billion from Hindustan Zinc Ltd (HZL), sources say

    • The government and management at Hindustan Zinc are locking horns, with the cash-hungry central government pushing for a big dividend payout from the company. The Indian government owns 29.5% of HZL, and is pushing for a dividend of Rs. 10,000 crore+ rupees ($1.47-2.20 billion), to be paid to them by March 31, officials said.

      HZL is majority-owned by Vedanta Resources Plc and reportedly has more than Rs. 36,000 crore in surplus cash. The company is opposed to the government's push and would like to reward investors with a share buyback instead. The push by the government comes as its lockers have been emptied out by demonetization, with finances across government departments and government-owned firms deeply strained. Either way, shareholders are in for a big payoff - through dividends or buyback - and the stock has hit a new 52 week high today. 

    • Axis Bank is trending strongly up in expectation of its Q3 results, as investors are hopeful of good news from the company. The bank - which had received plenty of bad press around demonetization, with officials prosecuted for laundering black money - is seeing optimism from analysts who are expecting strong net profits. RBI has also relaxed the reporting of stressed loans by an additional 90 days, which may allow banks like Axis to defer the reporting to the next quarter.

    Reliance crosses the Rs. 8,000 crore mark for first time in standalone net profit

    Reliance crosses the Rs. 8,000 crore mark for first time in standalone net profit

    • Finance Minister Jaitley has now pushed the rollout of the GST reform by three months, saying that a July 1 rollout is "more realistic". The FM, in the final meeting among the central and state officials before the Budget, finally managed to break a deadlock among the state governments, reaching an agreement on how the taxes would be collected.  

    • Reliance Industries saw a landmark in its Q3 results,crossing the Rs.8,000 crore mark in stand-alone net profit for the first time. But more than one-third of this number was 'other income', as the company's gross refining margins failed to hit the $11.3 a barrel many analysts expected - it stood instead at $10.8 a barrel. Still, the company has managed to provide impressive numbers in a muted, post-demonetization results season. 

    • Stock in spotlight: Dynamatic Technologies, the aerospace engineering company, which has seen strong growth in recent quarters on the back of new orders which are set to continue into FY18 according to management.

    After Indian IT, Trump now targets Indian Pharma

    After Indian IT, Trump now targets Indian Pharma

    On Wednesday, during Donald Trump's first news conference in a while, the incoming US President targeted the international pharma industry, with specific attention given to pharma imports into the US. "We’ve got to get our drug industry back," he said during the conference, "Our drug industry has been disastrous..they supply our drugs, but they don’t make them here, to a large extent." 

    Most drug imports in the US are for low-cost generic drugs, and three-fifths of such drugs are from India. The leaders in exporting pharmaceuticals in key categories - for seizures, cardiac disease, and diabetes - to the United States are three Indian companies: Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Aurobindo Pharma, and Cipla.

    Trump has already made it clear that he is going to act against the IT service model of core Indian firms such as Infosys and TCS. By promising tightening or an outright ban on H1B visas, as well as tariffs on outsourcing, he has clouded the outlook for these IT firms, as they prepare for immediate executive actions once he takes office. 'Bringing jobs back' has been a key refrain of Trump during the election, and it remains to be seen how much this talk will translate into serious curbs agains Indian IT, and now generic Indian pharma. 

    What might limit the Trump administration is however, cost. The cost of medication in the US has spiralled up in the last decade - in 2015 list prices of drugs increased by over 12% in the US according to the IMS, a trend that includes various life-saving drugs. Much of the exports to the US from Indian companies are generics which provide competition to brand-name drugs in the United States and keep costs low for critical medication. About 30% of all USFDA-approved drugs now belong to India generic companies. Trade curbs is near-certain to bring up the cost of medication for Americans.

It is expected to announce the GST rollout date, which initially planned for April 1 2017, is likely to miss that deadline.

    Infosys posts better than average result, but Donald Trump affects guidance

    Infosys posts better than average result, but Donald Trump affects guidance

    • Infosys posts better than expected returns, but lowers guidance: Infosys announced a higher than expected 7% percent increase in net profits for the December quarter, but pared its revenue guidance for the entire FY17, saying that it expected to grow between 8.4% - 8.8%. The earlier guidance had ranged between 8% - 9%. The IT major may be attributing some downside risk to incoming President Trump, who has promised to cancel the H1B visa program and tax international goods and services.  

    • After months of swirling rumors on the possibilities of the future Tata Sons Chairman, the holding company named long-time Tata insider Natarajan Chandrasekaran - CEO of TCS - as the new Chairman. This is the kind of nomination unlikely to rock the boat or try to upend old rules, and Tata Sons clearly hopes to calm markets after the rocky exit of Cyrus Mistry. The questions on corporate governance and the control of the Tata Trusts have gone unanswered, as these issues are being challenged in various court cases.
