According to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI)'s bank holiday calendar and the National Portal of India, June 7, 2025 (Saturday), is the official holiday for Id-ul-Zuha (Bakrid).

India shuts unit at country's largest nuclear power plant for maintenance
India has shut a unit at its Kudankulam nuclear reactor , the largest in the country, for scheduled maintenance last week, according to an outage report, possibly spiking power prices for southern regions. The 1,000 megawatt (MW) Unit 1 at Kudankulam in the southern state of Tamil Nadu was shut on August 3, the Central Electricity Authority, the country's power advisory body, said in a report dated August 7. Confirming that one unit of Kudankulam is under maintenance, a senior official with Tamil Nadu Distribution and Generation Company said the state might have to tap market sources if the need for additional demand arises. The official from the state government did not want to be identified as India's nuclear facilities are controlled by the federal government. Earlier, the Kerala State Electricity Board Ltd (KSEBL) filed a petition with the state's electricity regulator, saying the shutdown is expected to worsen the peak-hour electricity shortages in some southern states, driving up short-term power procurement costs. The 65-day outage, coupled with low volumes on power exchanges and increased demand from neighbouring states, had forced it to procure 300 MW of peak-hour power at rates as high as 9.18 rupees ($0.1048) per unit of electricity. The utility finalised purchases from Tata Power at 8.75 rupees per unit and Greenko Energies at 9.18 rupees per unit for the slot between 07:00 PM IST and 00:00 AM IST slot throughout August, the petition showed. "The projected peak-hour deficit of around 600 MW in August 2025 may worsen due to the scheduled refuelling outage of the Kudankulam nuclear power plant," KSEBL said. Kerala's electricity regulator approved the emergency procurement but flagged concerns over the high tariffs . The other 1,000 MW unit 2 at Kudankulam is operating normally, according to the Tamil Nadu government official. India aims to expand nuclear capacity to at least 100 gigawatt by 2047, up from about 9 gigawatt currently. ($1 = 87.6212 Indian rupees)

RBI said to have sold at least $5 billion to boost rupee
Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel India's central bank sold US dollars across both onshore and offshore currency markets this month to prop up the rupee as it weakened toward a record low, according to people familiar with the Reserve Bank of India sold at least $5 billion worth of the US currency, one of the people said, asking not to be identified as the information is private. The RBI didn't immediately respond to an email requesting comment on the matter. If the trend persists, it could become RBI's largest month of net dollar sales since rupee fell to 87.89 per dollar last week, just shy of its all-time low as US President Donald Trump doubled tariffs on Indian goods on Aug. 6 to 50% as a penalty for its purchases of Russian oil. A weaker rupee could fuel imported inflation and strain an already fragile economic intervention suggests a potential shift away from the RBI's previously restrained approach under Governor Sanjay Malhotra, who took office in rupee has depreciated more than 2% so far this year, making it among Asia's worst-performing currencies. Roughly half of that drop came in the past two weeks after it became evident Trump was planning to increase the tariffs.'The recent RBI intervention seems to have more to do with their dislike of the volatility in the exchange rate,' said Dhiraj Nim, currency strategist at Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd. The rupee traded steady at 87.62 per dollar on multiple occasions last week, the central bank was seen stepping into the offshore market just before domestic currency trading began at 9 a.m. Mumbai time, according to two of the people familiar with the matter, who declined to be identified as they aren't authorized to speak on on so-called non-deliverable forwards allows the central bank to guide the rupee's trajectory without having to sell large volumes of dollars outright. The central bank heavily relied on this strategy last RBI's latest foreign-exchange reserves data also point to increased intervention, with the stockpile falling by $9.3 billion, the steepest drop since November, to $689 billion in the week through Aug. 1. Part of the decline may reflect valuation changes in global currencies, not solely the central bank's dollar sales or purchases.
