RBI's Rate Cut Sends Market Soaring: Sensex Climbs 700 pts, Nifty Flirts with 25K

The Reserve Bank of India's unexpected 50 basis points rate cut sparked a surge in the stock market, with the Sensex rising nearly 700 points and the Nifty nearing the 25,000 mark. The move shifted the policy stance to 'neutral,' signaling a potential halt in future rate cuts. While banking and realty sectors saw gains, some analysts predict challenges ahead for banking stocks due to margin pressures despite expected credit growth.

Sensex, Nifty continue to correct even as global equities recover from rout

Indian benchmark equity indexes, Sensex and Nifty, continued to decline despite global equities recovering. Valuation concerns and global uncertainties are denting investor sentiment.

Rupee falls 35 paise to hit all-time low of 83.48 against US dollar

The Indian rupee depreciated to a record low of 83.48 against the US dollar as the greenback strengthened against major currencies. The decline was driven by the surprising interest rate cut by the Swiss National Bank, which increased the likelihood of a rate cut by the European Central Bank. Foreign fund outflows also impacted the rupee. However, the domestic equity market showed gains, with the Sensex rising by 0.26% and the Nifty by 0.39%. Overall, the rupee is expected to have a negative bias due to the strong US dollar and potential rebound in crude oil prices.
