The European Union (EU) downgraded its
economic outlook for Britain and the rest of the bloc on Tuesday, saying the
Brexit vote ushered in uncertainty and would weigh on growth. The gross
domestic product (GDP) growth in the 19-country eurozone is expected to slow to
between 1.3% and 1.5% in 2016 from the previously estimated 1.7% in May. The
same growth figures are expected for next year. This implies a loss of GDP of
0.25% to 0.5% by 2017, which is less than in Britain (1.0% to 2.75%), said a
report published by the European Commission, the bloc's executive arm.
"The UK's 'leave' vote is expected to slow private consumption and
investment and impact on foreign trade," it noted. The report warned that
Britain's referendum had created an "extraordinarily uncertain
situation," which is likely to prevail for some time, and would affect not
only Britain but also the rest of the EU economy through several transmission
channels, mainly uncertainty, investment, trade, and migration. These issues
are likely to have a bearing on the investments by foreign institutional
investors in emerging markets like India.

The government has not allowed any
pharmaceutical company to increase prices of drugs beyond permissible limits,
parliament was told on Tuesday. "Few companies have given representations
for increasing prices of medicines beyond permissible limits mentioning various
reasons like increase in cost, tax, foreign exchange rates etc. However, no
company has been given permission to increase the prices so far," Minister
of Chemicals and Fertilisers Ananth Kumar told the Lok Sabha. He said the
government has brought down prices of 404 medicines under the National List of
Essential Medicines, 2015 (revised schedule-I) of the Drug Price Control Order
(DPOC) 2013. The government has earlier "reduced the ceiling prices of 530
medicines as on 2/3/2016 under NLEM 2011 of DPCO 2013 (original schedule-I) on
the basis of the negative wholesale price index," he said. Schedule I of
DPCO 2013 contains the national list of essential medicines. The S & P BSE
Healthcare index closed at 16450.18, up 2.38% on Wednesday on the BSE. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions
