Mumbai: Indian equity markets ended the week on a positive note after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced a 25 basis point cut in the repo rate, bringing it down to 5.25 percent. The Monetary Policy Committee, led by Governor Sanjay Malhotra, also maintained a neutral policy stance.

The central bank delivered a double surprise-cutting rates and sharply lowering the FY26 inflation forecast to 2 percent from 2.6 percent, while raising the growth projection to 7.3 percent from 6.8 percent. Analysts said these moves reflect strong confidence in the economy and improving price stability.
