RBI policy brings cheer for Indian stocks: Nifty Bank soars over 800 points, realty skyrockets
New Delhi [India], June 6 (ANI): The Indian stock indices ended on a strong note and surged after the larger-than-expected policy rate cut, reflecting elevated optimism among the market participants on the last trading day of the week. At the end of the trading on Friday, the BSE Sensex was at 82,188.99, up 746.95 points or 0.92 per cent, and the Nifty 50 was up 252.15 points or 1.02 per cent. The market analysts say that the RBI's decision to cut the repo rate exceeds expectations and gives a strong message to the markets that the apex bank is willing to move aggressively when macroeconomic conditions allow. Following the MPC outcome announcements, Nifty Bank hit a new high, and the Central Bank was surprised with a larger-than-expected policy rate cut of 50 basis points, taking the repo rate to 5.5 per cent. The Nifty Bank ended at 56,578.40, climbing over 817 points. 'This big rate cut will impact the margins of the banks and, therefore, bank stocks will be under pressure in the near term. However, the credit growth that this rate cut will hopefully stimulate will compensate for the dip in margins,' said VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited.'The Indian stock market responded optimistically to RBI's surprise and aggressive growth push policy,' Vijayakumar further added. CS Setty, Chairman at State Bank of India & Chairman at IBA said, 'RBI today's monetary policy communication was action-packed - innovative, out of the box and an unanticipated surprise.' 'The policy is definitely positive for all sectors of the economy, particularly for banking and finance. In particular, lower cost of borrowing will act as a counterbalance to any uncertainty,' he added. The investors also reacted strongly to the Realty, which rose over 4 per cent. Reacting to the rate cut announcement, Mayank Jain, CEO, KREEVA, a real estate developer, said, 'The reduced borrowing cost will not only strengthen homebuyers' sentiments but also help in easing the liquidity flow in the market. 'In light of significant market volatility and real estate witnessing a surge in the investment flow, this proactive approach signals the central bank's strong commitment to thrust economic momentum and boost investor confidence,' Jain added. Except for Media, which was one per cent down on Friday, all other sectoral indices ended higher with metal, auto, and consumer durables jumping over one per cent each. (ANI)

RBI aims to boost economic growth, liquidity with jumbo rate and CRR cuts
Mumbai: In a move to invigorate India's slowing economy and in the wake of consistently easing inflation, the rate-setting committee of India's central bank slashed the repo rate by 50 basis points (bps) on Friday, twice the 25 bps that was widely expected. Further it complemented the policy rate cut with a 100 bps reduction in the cash reserve ratio (CRR). A basis point is one-hundredth of a percentage point. 'Inflation is under a lot of control now, and we can accept that we have won the war,' RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra said at a media briefing on Friday following the MPC meeting, adding that the central bank has reduced inflation projection for FY26 to 3.7% from 4% earlier. The unexpected bounty was cheered by the stock markets, with the BSE Sensex closing 0.92% up at 82,188.99, and the Nifty 50 surpassing the 25,000 level with a 252 pts upswing to close at 25,003.5. Bond markets, too, reacted positively, with the shorter end of the yield curve seeing some softening. The 10-year G-sec yield hit an intraday high of 6.290, before rising 4.3 bps to close at 6.289. The repo rate is the rate at which banks borrow from RBI, and CRR refers to a certain percentage of cash that all banks have to keep with the RBI as a deposit. After Friday's cut, the repo rate stands reduced to 5.5% from 6% earlier, and CRR to 3% from 4% earlier. The cut in CRR is expected to infuse liquidity worth ₹ 2.5 trillion in four tranches from 6 September to 29 November. The last time the CRR was cut by 100bps was during the covid-19 pandemic in 2020, when economic growth needed a major push. 'It is imperative to continue to stimulate domestic private consumption and investment through policy levers to step up the growth momentum,' Malhotra said at the media briefing. 'This changed growth-inflation dynamics calls for not only continuing with the policy easing but also frontloading the rate cuts to support growth. The MPC will be carefully assessing the incoming data and the evolving outlook to chart out the future course of monetary policy in order to strike the right growth-inflation balance.' According to Malhotra, the announcement of CRR cut four months in advance is aimed at ensuring certainty to banks and markets regarding the health of the economy. Five of the six MPC members voted for a 50 bps cut, with only Saugata Bhattacharya voting for a 25 bps rate cut. The six-member also changed the policy stance back to neutral from accommodative, citing limited space for further monetary easing. After including Friday's rate cut, MPC has cumulatively cut repo rates by a 100 bps since February this year, a development that economists widely expected would take the full year to roll out. Most treasury heads and economists polled by Mint had predicted a 25 bps rate cut along with no change in policy stance. Only State Bank of India (SBImp) had predicted a 50 bps cut in interest rates. While the MPC has maintained FY26 GDP growth forecast at 6.5%, it expects economic activity to maintain the momentum in the fiscal year, supported by private consumption and fixed capital formation. The committee however cautioned that spillovers emanating from protracted geopolitical tensions, and global trade and weather-related uncertainties could pose downside risks to growth. The MPC lowered its consumer price inflation (CPI) forecast by 30 basis points to 3.7% as the outlook remains benign. However, the committee expects FY27 inflation at 4.5%. High production of wheat and pulses in the rabi crop season along with early onset of monsoon, augurs well for the inflation outlook. Majority of economists, who were earlier expecting 50-100 basis points repo rate cut during the year, are now reading the policy action as an extended pause for the year. HDFC Bank said in a research note on Friday that the RBI is likely to stay on pause on rate cuts at least in the next two policies (August and October). 'Given the inflation trajectory, the RBI has space to cut the repo rate by another 25-50 bps in this cycle, but we see the probability of that happening to be low at this stage. For now, in our base case, we see the policy rate remaining unchanged at 5.5% for 2025.' Nomura, however, expects terminal rates at 5%, with a likely pause in August, followed by 25 bps rate cuts each in October and December. With this cut in repo rate and CRR, the MPC expects policy transmission to be faster than before. 'The comfortable liquidity surplus in the banking system has further reinforced transmission of policy repo rate cuts to short term rates,' said Malhotra in his policy statement. 'However, we are yet to see a perceptible transmission in the credit market segment, though we must keep in mind that it happens with some lag.' Economists also expect that some of the liquidity infusion could be offset by the RBI reducing its forward book. As of April 2025, RBI's forward book stood at $53 billion (up to one-year segment). Between February 2025 and April 2025, RBI reduced its dollar short position by $26, resulting in liquidity drain of $2.3 trillion. 'We believe that the liquidity infusion through the CRR cut would help cushion the rupee drain from the maturity of the RBI's forward book over the coming months,' added HDFC bank in its note.
