Post-Session: Sensex, Nifty end lower after RBI holds repo rate

Benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty50 ended in the red on Wednesday after the Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), led by Governor Sanjay Malhotra, kept the repo rate steady at 5.50 per cent.



Despite growing global trade concerns—including the recent 25 per cent tariff imposed by the US on Indian exports—the RBI maintained its GDP growth projection for FY26 at 6.5 per cent. Governor Malhotra noted that these global risks were already factored into the outlook, and current data does not justify a revision.



On a positive note, the central bank significantly lowered its inflation forecast for FY26 to 3.1 per cent from 3.7 per cent, citing easing food prices, a good monsoon, and strong foodgrain stock levels.



The 30-share benchmark index ended at 80543.99 down by -166.26 points or by -0.21 % and then NSE Nifty was at 24574.2 down by -75.35 points or by -0.31 %.

Sensex touched intraday high of 80834.43 and intraday low of 80448.82 The NSE Nifty touched intraday high of 24671.4 and intraday low of 24539.2
