6 August, 2025 : Indian Stock Market LIVE – Nifty-Sensex close in red, Pharma-IT-Realty down

Hello, and welcome to our live coverage of the Indian markets on Wednesday, August 6, 2025. The mood is cautiously watchful ahead of the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) highly anticipated Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) outcome scheduled for 10 AM today. The policy announcement will be closely watched for guidance on the repo rate after the central bank already cut rates by a cumulative 100 basis points this year, spurred by easing inflation but set against a turbulent global backdrop including new US tariffs on Indian exports.

Yesterday, Indian equities traded under pressure. The Sensex fell 308 points (0.38%) to close at 80,710.25 while the Nifty 50 lost 73 points (0.30%) to end at 24,649.55, weighed down by losses in energy, IT, and banking heavyweights such as Adani Ports, Reliance Industries, and Infosys. IndusInd Bank and Titan were among the few notable gainers. 

GIFT Nifty, the offshore indicator for Indian markets, trades just below its previous close, signaling a muted start for domestic indices this morning. Meanwhile, Indian ADRs had a mixed overnight session, with counters like HDFC Bank and Tata Motors drifting lower, reflecting some persisting caution among global investors. 

Stay tuned for rolling updates and real-time analysis as we track the market’s reaction to the RBI’s decisions and other global cues.
