Sensex, Nifty opening: Will markets rise or fall with RBI MPC decision today?

India Today 1 hr ago·7 Oct 2026, 3:04 am

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is set to announce its monetary policy decision today, a key event for the stock market. Investors are closely watching whether the central bank will hold interest rates steady or make a change. This decision influences the cost of borrowing for companies and the returns on fixed deposits, directly affecting investor sentiment.

A rate cut could boost stock prices by making loans cheaper and boosting corporate profits. Conversely, a hike might cool down the market by increasing borrowing costs. The outcome will set the tone for trading for the rest of the week, making this a crucial session for tracking market movements.
