The BSE Sensex fell for the third straight session on Thursday, closing at its lowest level in near 6-1/2 months on continued selling by foreign investors due to worries over retrospective taxes and a delay in land acquisition bill.
GST slab release impacted sensex today. The slab of 12% & 18% is clever move by the government to increase taxes on the services. It is expected that sensex will be under pressure till the time fine blue print don't come out as the slab rates are higher than expected.
