Rate-sensitive sectors like banking, NBFCs, real estate and automobile to gain amid easing rates: Report
New Delhi [India], : Sectors such as banking, NBFCs, real estate, and automobiles are expected to be the key beneficiaries of the current easing interest rate environment, according to a report by Nexedge Research. The report mentioned that with borrowing costs on a downward trend, these rate-sensitive segments are likely to witness stronger credit flow, lower financing costs, and improved demand conditions. It said, "Banking, NBFCs, real estate, and automobiles are well positioned to benefit from lower borrowing costs." The report also noted that the Indian economy is entering a phase marked by benign inflation and ample liquidity, creating a sustained low-interest rate backdrop. This is already evident in the falling money market rates and a notable softening in the 10-year government bond yield. The report mentioned that the decline in yields has boosted bond prices and improved return prospects for fixed-income investors. It said, "Money market rates and bond yields are trending lower, with the 10-year G-sec yield already softening, boosting bond prices and supporting fixed-income returns." The report highlighted that inflation is currently hovering near the lower end of the Reserve Bank of India's target range of 2-6 per cent. With the RBI maintaining a neutral policy stance, the market is beginning to price in the possibility of further rate cuts. This combination of falling inflation and proactive monetary easing is seen as supportive for both equity and bond markets. The report suggested that these factors together are strengthening the medium-term macro outlook, offering a positive backdrop for investors and further momentum for India's economic growth. The RBI's Monetary Policy Committee on Friday cut the repo rate by 50 basis points to 5.50 per cent . This larger-than-expected cut marks the third consecutive reduction in 2025, totalling 100 bps of easing since February. Consequently, the Standing Deposit Facility rate stands adjusted at 5.25 per cent, and the Marginal Standing Facility rate and Bank Rate are set at 5.75 per cent. The RBI has also reduced CRR by 100 bps to augment durable liquidity in the banking system. This CRR cut will be implemented in phases beginning September 6, , and November 29, 2025, and is expected to release roughly ₹ 2.5 trillion of liquidity by November 2025, bolstering bank lending capacity.

FIIs infuse ₹15,208 crore; remains net sellers in 2025. Will FPIs make a comeback in 2025?
Both Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) and Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs), remained net buyers on Friday, June 6, despite the Nifty moving within a tight range near its all-time highs. Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) or FIIs recorded net purchases of ₹ 1,009 crore, having bought equities worth ₹ 15,208 crore and sold ₹ 14,198 crore on Friday, as per data available on NSE. In comparison, DIIs were notably more active, registering net purchases of ₹ 9,342 crore. DIIs acquired shares amounting to ₹ 22,522.51 crore while offloading ₹ 13,180 crore worth. Although there were positive inflows during the day, FIIs have continued to be net sellers in 2025, having sold equities worth ₹ 1.24 lakh crore so far. On the other hand, DIIs have consistently backed the market, with their net purchases approaching ₹ 3 lakh crore since the beginning of the year. In June so far, FIIs have recorded net outflows of ₹ 4,575.59 crore, whereas DIIs have made net purchases totaling ₹ 16,170.95 crore, highlighting the strong domestic backing that has been driving recent market resilience. According to a report by Iconic Wealth, FIIs hold 18.8 per cent of Indian equities versus an average of 30 per cent for EM (ex-China). This leaves wide runway for fresh global capital to chase the India growth story over the coming decade. Since 2015, FIIs have trimmed their allocation to large-cap stocks from around 80 per cent to under 77 per cent. However, during the same period, they significantly broadened their portfolios—now holding positions in 80 per cent of Nifty-500 companies compared to just 20 per cent twenty years ago, the report revealed. FIIs are steadily increasing their exposure to sectors like chemicals, EMS, telecom, financials, and infrastructure—driven by themes such as the China+1 strategy, tech-enabled consumption growth, and the ongoing capex upcycle. "From hundred favourites to four hundred front runners: FIIs have moved from investing in just top 20% of Nifty 500 companies till two decades ago to 80% today, while their allocation to the Nifty 50 has simply dwindled to historic lows - indicating that global investors now see opportunity across the full breadth of Indian market," said Srikanth Subramanian, Co-Founder & CEO, Ionic Wealth.
