INDIAN EQUITY MARKET WRAP UP - 05 APR 2016

INDIAN BENCHMARKS: SENSEX TANKS 516 POINTS IN THUMBS-DOWN TO RBI, NIFTY 50 AT 7603

Dalal Street had built in too much of hope from the Reserve Bank of India, it seems!

The 25 basis points repo rate cut that the central bank delivered at its first rate-setting meeting of the new financial year was not enough for equity investors, who resorted to a large-scale selling that took the benchmark Sensex down by over 500 points.

Bank stocks bore the brunt, with top lenders State Bank of India and ICICI Bank tanking nearly 6 per cent each, and BSE Bankex shedding over 3 per cent to emerge the biggest loser among all sectoral indices. All 12 components of Nifty Bank ended with losses. Among other rate-sensitive sectors, BSE Auto index fell 2.80 per cent, led by losses in Tata Motors, Eicher Motors and Apollo Tyres. The BSE Realty index lost 2.60 per cent, while the Capital Goods index shed 2.64 per cent, reflecting the market's dissatisfaction with the less-than-expected rate cut.
