Market mein aaj RBI ke decision ke baad halke se badal chha gaye hain. Repo rate mein **0.25%** ki hike hui hai, jiske baad Sensex aur Nifty dono red mein band hue hain.
RBI ki Monetary Policy Committee ne aaj sabko shock dete hue Repo rate mein 25 basis points (yani 0.25%) ka jump kar diya hai, jisse yeh rate ab 5.50% par pahunch gaya hai. February 2023 ke baad yeh pehli baar hai jab rates badhaye gaye hain, aur RBI ne 'calibrated tightening' ka signal de diya hai.
Iska seedha asar market par dikha. BSE Sensex 429 points girkar 72,638.70 par band hua, aur Nifty 173 points toot kar 22,603.05 par settle hua.
Market mein kyu hai itna darr?
RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra ne saaf kar diya hai ki abhi unka main focus inflation control hai, na ki rate cuts. Halanki RBI ne GDP growth forecast ko badha kar 7.1% kiya hai, lekin 5.2% ka inflation projection investors ki chinta badha raha hai. Higher rates ka matlab hai companies aur aapke liye loan mehnga hona, jisse business spending slow ho sakti hai.
Sector par impact
Rate sensitive sectors jaise ki Auto, Realty aur Metal mein sabse zyada sell-off dekha gaya. Logo ko darr hai ki loan mehnga hone se ghar aur gadi ki demand kam ho jayegi. Wahi dusri taraf, PSU banks ne thodi himmat dikhayi hai.
External pressures bhi heavy hain
Sirf RBI ka hike hi nahi, global issues bhi market ko pareshan kar rahe hain. Indian Rupee girkar 96.78 (vs USD) ke 5-month low par hai. Upar se Brent Crude oil ke price $101 ke paar nikal gaye hain. Bharat jaisa oil-importing country ke liye yeh inflation ka bada khatra hai. Ab sabki nazar agli inflation data aur RBI ke agle moves par hai.
