Sensex plunges 1,688 pts as new virus variant spooks global markets

A new variant of Covid-19 virus, first found in Botswana which can possibly resist available vaccines, pushed global investors onto the backfoot, that in turn led to a sell-off in risky assets. As a result, investors on Dalal Street too pressed the panic button, leading to a 1,688-point slide in the sensex — the biggest single-session loss in over seven months — which closed at 57,107. In late trades, the index had even entered the sub-57k mark, its first foray in that territory in 3 months.

India to Pakistan: Expedite 26/11 trial, give up double standards

Underlining that it is not ready to accept any sort of "closure" on the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, the government gave a renewed push to punish the guilty on the 13th anniversary of the terror strikes by summoning a senior Pakistani diplomat and calling for an expeditious trial in the long pending case. In a note verbale, it also asked Pakistan to abide by its commitment to not allow territories under its control to be used for terrorism against India.

RBI keeps big business houses out of banking

Reserve Bank of India has not accepted a proposal to consider large corporates or industrial houses for a banking licence. It has however allowed promoters of banks to hold up to 26% in their banks, which is a positive for many lenders including Kotak Mahindra Bank, IndusInd Bank, Bandhan Bank and CSB Bank. The new norms allow those who have already diluted stakes to hike their shareholding.

As farmers dig in on MSP, govt experts point out cons

Even as farm unions are pitching for a legal guarantee to MSP, government experts say that legalising MSP to procure 23 crops would disrupt market equilibrium, drive out private trade, and lead to inflation and a decline in agricultural exports. Officials feared that farmers would actually be hit and cited Niti Aayog’s working paper on farm reforms to argue that liberalised markets were more favourable to growth than government support and interventions in the market over a period of time.
