Live: RBI Policy Expectations| Rupee Slide, Strong GDP & Soft Inflation – Will MPC Cut Or Pause?
The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will announce its interest rate decision on Friday, with the street sharply divided over the outcome. While industry hopes for a 25-basis-point cut amid benign inflation and a government focus on growth, others expect the central bank to stay cautious. The RBI had kept the repo rate unchanged at 5.5% during its previous meeting on October 1, marking a second consecutive pause after cutting rates by 100 basis points in the first half of 2025. However, the recent slide in the rupee may complicate the rate call. Catch this conversation between Moneycontrol’s Nandita Khemka and CNBC-TV18’s Latha Venkatesh for expert insights on what to expect from the MPC. #rbi #monetarypolicy #rbigovernor #rupees

Nifty Holds Key Support; Volatile Trade Likely on Sensex Expiry | Opening Bell Live
The Nifty 50 remained under pressure for the fourth straight session on December 3, slipping 0.2% amid persistent weakness in momentum indicators. However, the index managed to hold above its 20-day EMA (25,970) on a closing basis. Experts say a decisive move below these levels could strengthen the bears and drag the index toward 25,840 - last Wednesday’s low. On the upside, a rebound above 26,070 and 26,150 may offer short-term relief, though traders are advised to stay cautious. Global cues remain mixed, with the GIFT Nifty signaling a subdued start on Sensex expiry day.
