Banks only decide on minimum a/c balance: Guv
Gozaria (Guj): Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Sanjay Malhotra on Monday said banks are free to decide the minimum balance for savings accounts and that it does not fall under the regulatory domain of the RBI. He was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a function on 'Financial Inclusion Saturation Drive' organized at Gozaria village Panchayat in Gujarat's Mehsana district. Asked about a private bank increasing the minimum balance required for savings accounts, Malhotra said: 'The RBI has left it to individual banks to decide on what minimum balance they want to set. Some banks have kept it at Rs10,000, some have kept Rs2,000 and some have exempted (customers). It is not in the regulatory domain (of RBI).' In a recent decision, private lender ICICI Bank increased the minimum balance requirement for those opening new savings accounts from August 1. The minimum average monthly balance (MAB) has been increased by five times to Rs50,000 from Rs10,000 on savings bank account, as per the lender's website. Similarly, MAB for semi-urban locations and rural locations have been increased five times to Rs25,000 and Rs10,000, respectively. Incidentally, the State Bank of India has decided not to penalise savings account holders if they do not keep minimum balance. Traditionally, public-sector banks have lower balance requirements compared to private lenders with the requirement waived for Jan Dhan accounts. Several public-sector banks have done away with the requirement, and customers who fail to maintain the minimum prescribed balance do not need to pay a penalty. Speaking at the event, Malhotra said digital literacy was very important to succeed in the new age. 'Earlier they used to say if you do not study you will not prosper. In today's age, this is the same for digital literacy. If you do not have digital literacy you will not progress,' he said.

Investors are positively assessing the upcoming US-Russia Summit this week, which may possibly give way to a de-escalation in geopolitical tensions.

As many as 2,237 stocks advanced, while 1,930 declined and 170 remained unchanged on the BSE. 'Markets started the week on an upbeat note, gaining nearly a percent and providing a breather after the recent decline.

Indian Largecap IT stocks: A relative safe haven amid market volatility?
Indian largecap IT stocks, once trading at premium valuations, have seen a sharp derating amid a sectoral slowdown, persistent negative news flow, and an uncertain global demand outlook. Industry bellwether Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has seen its trailing twelve-month price-to-earnings (PE) ratio fall from 41x to around 20x, even as its profit CAGR stood at 8.5% and stock CAGR at about 6% over the past five years. While the Nifty IT Total Return Index (TRI) and sectoral earnings per share (EPS) have compounded at roughly 12.5% annually over the past two decades, the index has lagged the broader Nifty over the last three to five years. Analysts at DSP Mutual Fund note that IT's weight in the Nifty is now hovering near decade lows, but the sector's fundamentals remain robust, with top-tier companies continuing to deliver return on invested capital (ROIC) above 40%. This could set the stage for relative outperformance if valuations correct further. However, this positioning is more about relative safety than absolute return potential. Market strategists at DSP MF suggest that in the current volatile environment, a defensive portfolio comprising largecap IT, banks, and select other blue-chip stocks could help investors weather short-term turbulence while preserving capital. "With IT's weight in the Nifty near decade lows, and leading firms still generating ROICs above 40%, the sector may offer relative outperformance if valuations fall further. This doesn't signal that these stocks can deliver absolute returns, but when compared to the rest of the market, this may act as a relatively better investment avenue. The defensive bucket of IT, Banks and a few other largecap stocks can be used to tide over the market volatility," said Sahil Kapoor, Market Strategist and Head of Products at DSP Mutual Fund.
