Stock Market LIve Updates August 22: The Indian market closed the week ended on August 19 with marginal gains as the benchmarks Nifty50 and Sensex settled ...
India's impressive GDP growth and favorable leading indicators in the context of global growth slowdown have the potential to attract more FII flows but the rising dollar and bond yields are strong headwinds. The speculation on UPI charges came following a recent Reserve Bank of India (RBI) discussion paper on digital payment charges. The experts are of the view that the market may see consolidation this week after over 8% gain in the past one month. A shooting star in weekly, and a bearish engulfing in daily chart hints that the 18100-18200 trajectory has probably come to an end. Five of the top-10 valued firms together lost Rs 30,737.51 crore in market valuation last week, with Reliance Industries Limited taking the biggest hit. The speech of Fed chair may give guidance on the future rate hikes and fiscal tightening to curb the inflation. Between October 2021 till June 2022, they sold a massive Rs 2.46 lakh crore in the Indian equity markets. The dollar index is back above 108 and the US 10-year bond yield is at 2.99%. Among sectoral indices, except FMCG, all Nifty indices slipped in the red. Traders will stare at the prospects of 17000 again, for the August expiry, but will fancy slim chances of recovery, should Monday volatility fail to penetrate 17600 and manage to pull back above 17720 which meets the internal trendline. But FIIs are unlikely to buy aggressively in the present context of rising dollar. Snapping 7-day winning streak, the market closed with more than one per cent cut amid multiple factors.
After the pandemic eased, companies turned in robust results and rewarded their top honchos with higher salaries last year.
Automobile companies come next in the list of generous paymasters. Pawan Munjal, Managing Director of Hero MotoCorp, drew around ₹2 crore lesser in FY 2021-22 compared to the previous financial year. C Vijayakumar, CEO of HCL Technologies, got the largest increase in remuneration in FY22. But a large part of the increase was due to ESOPs exercised by him during the year. It is no secret that the public sector pays much lesser compared with the private sector. Other chiefs who witnessed large increases in their pay-packets were Satish Pai of Hindalco Industries and Salil Parekh of Infosys. Around three-fourth of the compensation in 2021-22 was, however, due to long-term incentive received from HCL America Inc. The profit linked commission earned by Sajjain Jindal more than doubled in FY22. Third on the list is CP Gurnani MD & CEO of Tech Mahindra. India Inc showed great resilience in the first year of the pandemic, managing decent profit growth, despite the lockdowns and impaired economic activity. While average salary in FY21 was ₹16.41 crore, it increased to ₹23.83 crore in FY22. The jump in aggregate pay-packets of CEOs/MDs last fiscal year was largely due to sharp increases in the salaries of few.
