Indian indices
The key indices slipped sharply in the afternoon session after trading in a tight range amid volatility and swung between gains and losses. Heavyselling in BHEL, Hindalco, TCS, Sterlite Industries and Sun Pharma dragged markets lower. The broader markets too ended lower. Investors were also cautious ahead of the Q3 Infosys' results on Friday which is likely to set mood for the overall earning season. It was a second straight fall for markets as selling intensified. The Sensex and the Nifty fell 3 points in today's trade.

Movement of the Indian indices for the day:

The Indian markets opened today's trading session on a positive note but failed to maintain the initial gains till the end. Selling pressure in majority of the sectors and profit booking in index heavyweights weighed on the sentiments which led the markets to float in the red zone. The indices were trading in the green zone till the late morning session, but the markets witnessed reversal trend and swung between gain and losses till the end of the day. Sensex hit the intraday low at 19596.38 in the afternoon trade. The positive global cues could not create major impact on the domestic markets.

Adding further, Indian equity benchmarks surrendered to profit-booking and gave up all of it morning gains in afternoon trade. The morning rally, which was on the back of the government's decision to hike railway fares after a decade, was short-lived. Also the buying in OMCs on hopes of fuel price hike on cards which would be submitted to the federal cabinet was not of much help.

The major event that took place today was, HSBC's cut in GDP forecast for the year ending in March to 5.2% from 5.7%, and its forecast for the next fiscal year to 6.2% from 6.9%, according to a report released on today (January 10, 2013).

The Sensex closed at 19663.55, down by 3.04 points and the Nifty fell by 2.85 points to settle at 5968.65 in trade today.

Following are the stocks/sectors which were in news today: 

  • Shares of Indiabulls Power and Bharat Heavy Electricals declined after Barclays Capital and Citigroup warned two thermal power projects. At the end of the day Indiabulls Power closed down by 4% while BHEL fell over 2%.
  • Tata Motors rose, extending its previous day's rally, after the company's ADR surged over 6%, ahead of its JLR unit's wholesale volume numbers, which are scheduled to be released early next week. At the end of the stock closed 2.07% higher.
  • Stocks of cement companies surged on near-term outlook concerns raised by global research firm JP Morgan.
  • KFA hit 10% upper circuit after a letter sent to staff from Vijay Mallya outlined plans for a revival to be funded with Rs6.5 bn from his UB Group.
