Domestic equities continued their downward trend for the second consecutive session, as the Nifty slipped below the 24,600 mark. The sentiment remained cautious amid broad-based profit booking, reflecting a bearish undertone.
The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) unanimously decided to keep the repo rate unchanged at 5.5%, maintaining its policy stance as neutral. This decision weighed on investor confidence, contributing to persistent selling pressure throughout the day.
