major indices of the Indian stock markets have staged a weekly rally with small

On
Monday, investors were spooked by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's hint of
raising taxes on income generated via stock market. Besides, continuous outflow
of foreign funds dragged the key domestic indices lower. However, the Finance
Minister Arun Jaitley clarified on Sunday itself that the government has no
plans to impose long-term capital gains tax on share transactions in the
upcoming budget, describing media reports of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's
speech earlier as erroneous. Market sentiments however remained low on Monday.
The BSE market breadth was tilted in favour of the bears -- with 2,015 declines
against 583 advances. On the NSE, there were 197 advances, 1,249 declines and
53 unchanged. Pharma stocks continued to be under pressure as were metal stocks
after there was a sharp decline of metal prices in Asian trade. Trading was
listless, and NSE trading volumes were on the lower side at just 62.77 crore. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions
An
auditors body on Monday sought independent powers of investigation for
Parliament's Public Accounts Committee (PAC), and demanded that banks, other financial
institutions and PPP projects be brought under the purview of India's official
auditor. "The Institute of Public Auditors of India (IPAI) has strongly
demanded that the PAC be given enough powers to take up issues for
investigation on its own. “It also advocated to bring banks, other financial
institutions and projects under the public-private partnership (PPP) within the
scope of the Comptroller and Auditor Generals' (CAG) audit," the body of
public finance specialists said. Bank Nifty closed lower on Monday. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions
