Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty began trading on a positive note on Thursday (December 11, 2025) but soon pared all early gains to trade in the negative territory amid weak trends in Asian markets and persistent foreign fund outflows.

The 30-share Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) index, Sensex, opened higher and climbed 149.3 points, or 0.17% to 84,540.57. The 50-share National Stock Exchange (NSE) index, Nifty, also advanced 45.05 points to 25,803.05.

Stock markets rally as RBI cuts interest rate; Sensex jumps 447 points

admin — Fri, 05 Dec 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Stock market benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty rallied on Friday (December 5, 2025) after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) cut key benchmark interest rate for the first time in six months and took steps to boost liquidity to support a “goldilocks” economy in the face of high US tariffs.

Rising for the second day in a row, the 30-share BSE Sensex advanced 447.05 points, or 0.52%, to settle at 85,712.37. During the day, it jumped 531.4 points, or 0.62%, to 85,796.72.

The 50-share NSE Nifty climbed 152.70 points, or 0.59%, to 26,186.45.

The six-member monetary policy committee, led by RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra, voted unanimously to lower the repurchase or repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.25% and retained a neutral stance, which give room for further rate cuts.

In doing so, the RBI seems to have shrugged off concerns over fall in the rupee, which breached 90 to a dollar this week.

The RBI lowered its inflation forecast for the fiscal year through March to 2% from 2.6%, while raising its GDP growth projection to 7.3%, from the previous estimate of 6.8%.

From the Sensex firms, State Bank of India, Bajaj Finserv, Bajaj Finance, Maruti, HCL Tech, Larsen & Toubro, Mahindra and Mahindra and Infosys were among the major winners.

However, Hindustan Unilever, Eternal, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, and Sun Pharma were among the laggards.

Rate-sensitive stocks — bank, auto and realty — ended higher.

“Indian markets have enthusiastically responded to the RBI’s unexpected 25 bps rate cut, a move that seemed unlikely given the strong Q2 GDP data. This surprise, combined with sharply lower inflation forecasts and supportive liquidity measures, has triggered a risk-on sentiment across equities. Rate-sensitive sectors such as autos, real estate, and NBFCs are leading the gains due to reduction in cost,” Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Ltd, said.

Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth ₹1,944.19 crore on Thursday (December 4, 2025), while Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) bought stocks worth ₹3,661.05 crore, according to exchange data.

In Asian markets, South Korea’s Kospi, Shanghai’s SSE Composite index and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index settled in positive territory while Japan’s Nikkei 225 index ended lower.

Markets in Europe were trading higher. U.S. markets ended on a flat note on Thursday (December 4, 2025).

Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, climbed 0.16% to $63.36 per barrel.

On Thursday (December 4, 2025), the Sensex edged higher by 158.51 points, or 0.19%, to settle at 85,265.32. The Nifty climbed 47.75 points, or 0.18%, to 26,033.75.

Snapping the four-day losing run, benchmark stock indices Sensex and Nifty rebounded on Thursday (December 4, 2025) on buying in tech and IT shares.

The 30-share Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) index Sensex edged higher by 158.51 points or 0.19% to settle at 85,265.32. During the day, it rose by 380.4 points or 0.44% to 85,487.21.

The 50-share National Stock Exchange (NSE) index Nifty climbed 47.75 points or 0.18% to 26,033.75. Sensex dropped around 613 points or 0.72% while Nifty shed nearly 230 points or 0.8% in four straight sessions to Wednesday (December 3, 2025).

Tata Consultancy Services, Tech Mahindra, Infosys, HCL Tech, Bharti Airtel, Sun Pharma, Bharat Electronics and Trent were the major gainers among Sensex scrips. However, Maruti, Eternal, Kotak Mahindra Bank and Titan were among the laggards.

Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) offloaded equities worth ₹3,206.92 crore on Wednesday (December 3, 2025), while Domestic Institutional Investors (DIIs) bought stocks worth ₹4,730.41 crore, according to exchange data.

“Domestic markets closed flat amid mixed global cues and caution ahead of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) policy. Early value-driven gains were restrained by a record-low Rupee and persistent FII outflows. However, lowered expectations of an RBI rate cut supported a mild currency rebound, helping indices stabilise towards the close,” Vinod Nair, head of research, Geojit Investments Limited said.

In Asian markets, South Korea’s Kospi, Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index settled lower, while Japan’s Nikkei 225 index and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index ended in positive territory.

Equity markets in Europe were trading higher. The U.S. markets ended higher on Wednesday (December 3, 2025). Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, climbed 0.38% to $62.91 per barrel.

On Wednesday (December 3), the Sensex dipped 31.46 points or 0.04% to settle at 85,106.81. The Nifty skidded 46.20 points or 0.18% to 25,986.

Equity benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty slipped in early trade on Thursday (December 4, 2025), but later bounced back to trade in positive territory, amid value buying at lower levels.

The 30-share Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) Sensex declined 156.83 points to 84,949.98 in early trade. The 50-share National Stock Exchange (NSE) Nifty skidded 47 points to 25,938.95.

However, later both the benchmark indices recovered their early lost ground and traded higher. The BSE benchmark quoted 146.52 points higher at 85,244.78, while the Nifty traded 36.70 points up at 26,024.80.

From the Sensex firms, Hindustan Unilever, Eternal, Titan, Power Grid, UltraTech Cement and State Bank of India were among the laggards.

“Nifty slipped below the 26,000 mark yesterday (December 3), extending its losing streak to a fourth straight session with market breadth firmly favouring the bears. A sliding rupee, and persistent FII outflows continue to weigh on sentiment, while upcoming Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and Fed policy decisions and geopolitical developments could add fresh volatility,” Prashanth Tapse, senior vice president (Research), Mehta Equities Ltd, said.

In Asian markets, South Korea’s Kospi traded lower while Japan’s Nikkei 225 index Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index quoted in positive territory.

U.S. markets ended higher on Wednesday (December 3).
