Mumbai: Indian equity benchmarks closed slightly higher after the Reserve Bank of India left interest rates unchanged. The Sensex gained around 0.19%, while the Nifty 50 ended with modest gains as investors welcomed the central bank’s decision to maintain policy stability.
Market experts said banking and financial stocks remained in focus following the RBI’s announcement. Small-cap shares outperformed the broader market, while investors continued monitoring crude oil prices and global geopolitical developments.
Analysts expect market sentiment to remain driven by corporate earnings, inflation trends and global economic developments over the coming weeks. Investors are also closely watching movements in international energy markets and foreign institutional investment flows.
