Investors appeared a bit cautious after RBI raised inflation estimates for FY27, which put pressure on the market. The decision to keep interest rates at 5.25% was as expected, but RBI comments and rise in inflation expectations put an end to the market’s initial rally.

How was the market’s opening?

RBI has once again not made any change in the interest rates and has kept the repo rate at 5.25%. Furthermore, RBI has maintained ‘neutral’ stance; This means that there are neither signs of interest rates rising right now nor are there any strong expectations of rates falling immediately. The market was expecting this decision, so there was no major shock.

Indian stock markets opened strongly on Friday. BSE Sensex opened at 74,629.94, above its previous close of 74,360.01, while Nifty 50 was trading above 23,450. All major indices were trading in the green during early trading. Maximum buying was seen in IT and healthcare stocks, with Infosys, Tech Mahindra, Max Healthcare and TCS being the top gainers.
