Frequently Asked Questions

How does RBI rate cut affect the stock market?

An RBI rate cut signals looser monetary policy, reducing borrowing costs for companies and consumers. Bank Nifty typically reacts most — NIM pressure short-term, but loan growth acceleration long-term. Rate-sensitive sectors (real estate, autos, NBFCs) rally. The Nifty 50 typically rises 0.5-1.5% on a surprise 25bps cut.

What is the difference between Repo Rate and Reverse Repo Rate?

Repo Rate (6.5% in 2025) is the rate at which banks borrow from RBI — it sets the floor for all lending rates. Reverse Repo Rate is what banks earn when they park funds with RBI. The Repo Rate is the primary policy lever; reducing it is a "rate cut" that stimulates the economy.
