Indian equity markets traded in the positive territory during the mid-afternoon trade session on Wednesday as positive global cues, along with a strong rupee, buoyed investors' sentiments. Besides, the market sentiments were lifted as Finance Minister Arun Jaitley moved the Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST) Bill, 2017, along with three other GST Bills for consideration of and passage by the Lok Sabha. However, with the near month March 2017 derivatives contract expiry on Thursday, some caution prevailed. Buying was witnessed in banking, capital goods and consumer durables stocks. There were 702 advances, 964 declines and 94 unchanged. 

Positive global cues and declining USD/INR supported the bullish sentiment. FMCG (fast moving consumer goods), power, cement and telecom sector stocks witnessed good strength, while IT (information technology), pharma, auto, oil-gas, textile and media-entertainment stocks traded with mixed sentiments. The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions

All members of the Rajya Sabha should resign if they have any pride left, Congress leader M. Veerappa Moily said in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday, slamming the government for undermining the house of elders by bringing in legislation to the lower house as money bills to ensure their passage. The Congress leader was participating in a debate on four GST bills in the Lok Sabha. "It is the biggest step in federal law, federal finances. You are a representative of the council of states. Finance Minister, you are denying rights to yourself," Moily said, referring to Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, a Rajya Sabha member. The safe passage of the new legislation in Parliament will ensure stability in Indian stock markets.

Kotak Mahindra Bank announced its strategic plan to double its customer base in next 18 months. For this, the bank has launched a ‘unique new phenomenon called 811’. Uday Kotak says branch expansion will be more measured from here on as the bank can cater to a wider customer base with fewer branches. Kotak says the board will take decision on how much capital it will raise and how much of it will be primary. Kotak Mahindra Bank shares closed at Rs858.95, down 0.10% on the BSE.
