The NSE Nifty 50 index commenced the day on a positive note, marking a gain of 2.05% and closing in the green territory. Surging above the 23,250 mark, the Indian benchmark indices recorded their third consecutive session of gains on June 7. This impressive performance was bolstered by a broad-based rally, with the Nifty surging by 468.75 points or 2.05%.
Market sentiment remained upbeat, fueled by positive developments on both the monetary policy and political fronts. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) revised its forecast for FY25 GDP growth upwards to 7.2%, while maintaining interest rates unchanged for the eighth consecutive term. This decision, coupled with anticipation of political stability at the centre, contributed to a sustained rally in the domestic market.
The RBI’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) opted to keep the key repo rate unchanged at 6.5% and maintained its stance of ‘withdrawal of accommodation’. This decision, supported by an upward revision in India’s GDP growth forecast for FY25, underscores the central bank’s commitment to balancing economic stability and inflation management.
The RBI’s decision to maintain interest rates signals economic stability, instilling confidence among investors. Furthermore, measures introduced to enhance liquidity in the banking system are expected to stimulate lending activity and drive profitability for financial institutions. The upward revision in GDP growth forecasts for FY25 has alleviated market concerns, particularly amidst global uncertainty and the recent formation of a new government.
The Nifty 50’s remarkable performance, reflects the prevailing bullish momentum in the market. Positive developments in monetary policy and political stability have fueled investor optimism, driving the domestic market to surpass previous records. The RBI’s commitment to managing inflation while supporting economic growth further strengthens market sentiment, paving the way for sustained upward movement in the coming sessions.

Indian Rupee Strengthens on Dollar Sales and Positive Asian Market Sentiment
The Indian rupee concluded the week on a stronger footing, bolstered by dollar sales from domestic corporates and a general uptrend in most Asian currencies. Closing at 83.3725 against the U.S. dollar, the rupee exhibited resilience, marking an improvement from its previous close of 83.4725. Notably, the currency recorded a marginal week-on-week increase of 0.1%.
Non-deliverable forwards suggest a largely flat trajectory for the rupee, hovering around the previous session’s closing rate of 83.4725. Market analysts predict minimal fluctuations, with a low probability of the dollar/rupee exchange rate surpassing 83.50. Any downward movement is anticipated to be modest, within a range of 3-4 paise.
Regarding the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) upcoming policy decision, experts anticipate no significant market impact. With robust economic growth and inflation slightly above the target level, it is unlikely that the RBI will alter the policy rate or stance. The focus of investors will primarily be on the central bank’s commentary on inflation and liquidity management.
The performance of the rupee’s Asian counterparts, which mostly demonstrated strength, alongside a marginal decline in the dollar index, contributed to the rupee’s positive momentum. Market participants eagerly awaited the release of the monthly U.S. jobs report, considering its potential impact on the Federal Reserve’s interest rate outlook amidst prevailing uncertainties.
The Indian rupee’s recent strengthening against the U.S. dollar, fueled by domestic dollar sales and favorable Asian market trends, reflects investor confidence. While projections indicate stability in the near term, attention remains focused on the RBI’s policy stance and global economic developments, particularly the forthcoming U.S. labor market data and its implications for monetary policy.
