FM Sitharaman's LTCG tax remarks lift Sensex by 1,100 points. Can markets hope for a review?
Indian equities rallied on Tuesday, with the Sensex surging over 1,100 points after Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said discussions around long-term capital gains tax (LTCG) and securities transaction tax (STT) were ongoing. IT stocks also supported gains, led by HCL Tech and TCS. However, mixed broader-market trends, elevated crude prices and inflation concerns continued to temper investor sentiment.
