Indian equities continued to face selling pressure, with the Nifty 50 registering its sixth consecutive session of decline, ending the week lower by 0.82%. The downturn was largely driven by muted corporate earnings growth and lingering concerns over the U.S.–India tariff situation, which weighed on investor sentiment.
The RBI’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) kept the repo rate unchanged, as anticipated, citing inflation under control with CPI at multi-year low levels. However, Governor flagged potential inflationary pressures ahead, projecting CPI to rise up to 4.9% in Q1FY27, adding a cautious undertone to the market mood.
In commodities, gold and silver outperformed, gaining over 2% and 4%, respectively, as investors shifted towards defensive assets amid global uncertainties. The uptick in bullion reflects a broader risk-off sentiment as market participants brace for potential macroeconomic headwinds.
