Cenbank Throws a Surprise Party RBI surprised markets with a 50 bps repo rate cut to 5.5%, eased CRR to inject ₹2.5 lakh crore liquidity, and shifted stance to 'neutral' amid inflation concerns. Cheaper loans and ample liquidity boosted equities, with Sensex rising 766 pts. The move supports growth as inflation moderates, while banks have begun lowering deposit and lending rates. #rbi #interestrates #stockmarket
