Despite its progressive intentions, the tax failed to raise sufficient revenue for the monarch, as people boarded up their windows to lower their tax liability. Window tax was a property tax based on the number of windows in a house. In addition, the minister also lifted capital gains for stock market investors who cash in within a year from 15% to 20%. While the tax raises more than £3 billion ($3.9 billion) annually, it has given birth to far riskier forms of speculation while simultaneously hurting the stock market. However, given the lofty valuations that Indian stock markets currently trade, the tax to skim the excesses might be a positive development over the longer term.

New Delhi CNN —Indian stocks plunged Tuesday as vote counting in the country’s election suggested Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s dream of a landslide victory is at risk, raising doubts about his ability to push through more aggressive economic reforms. India’s benchmark Sensex index, which tracks 30 large companies, and the broader Nifty 50 index each closed down by nearly 6%. The worst daily drop for Indian stocks since 2020 came just 24 hours after both indexes hit record highs as weekend exit polls prompted experts to predict a resounding victory for Modi. The 73-year-old ran on his economic record over the past 10 years, a period of robust growth for India. But investors have complained about the high price of Indian stocks and some analysts believe a correction could be healthy for markets.

The Fed on Wednesday held key interest rates unchanged as widely expected, but warned that the battle against inflation was far from over. Higher interest rates dry up liquidity from the markets, increasing the cost of capital. The small-cap and mid-cap stocks fell 1.3% and 0.9% on Thursday, respectively.

BENGALURU, June 16 (Reuters) - Indian information technology (IT) company Tata Consultancy Services (TCS.NS) said on Friday it has mutually agreed with insurance provider Transamerica to end a $2 billion contract, citing reasons including a challenging macro environment. The 10-year contract, signed in early 2018, involved TCS working with U.S.-based Transameria to enable the digitization of more than 10 million policies into a single integrated platform. Administration of those policies, including life insurance and retirement and investment solutions, will be moved to a new servicing model, which will take about 30 months, TCS said. "It's more of a sentimental negative rather than a big impact on the financials of TCS," said Siddhartha Khemka, head of retail research at Motilal Oswal Financial Services. "We don't see a big impact because of this.

BENGALURU, Dec 22 (Reuters) - Indian shares slipped on Thursday, with declines seen across most sectors after monetary policy minutes revealed strong concerns about elevated inflation, while fears about rising COVID-19 cases in China weighed on sentiment. India's health minister on Wednesday said the pandemic was "not over yet" given "the rising cases of COVID-19 in some countries". Asian markets also advanced after the bounce in U.S. shares, with the MSCI Asia ex Japan (.MIAPJ0000PUS) rising 1.49%. India's retail inflation eased below the RBI's upper tolerance limit of 6% for the first time in 2022 in November, but core inflation stayed above 6%. Khemka also said the remarks from the RBI minutes were "consistent with the central bank's adherence to tackling inflation".
