Meanwhile, the Indian stock market has faced increased instability lately due to global recession concerns. These concerns have been triggered by former U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff measures.
Amidst the uncertainty, the benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty 50 ended the day lower, even as the Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee announced a 25 basis point cut in the repo rate and a change in its policy stance.
