The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will meet next week on 3-5 August. So far, RBI has raised the repo rate by 90 basis points in two tranches since May 2022 to 4.9%. The street is expecting the Central Bank to raise the repo rate between 25-50 basis points. Anything above 50 basis points markets will react negatively and vice versa. Investors should closely watch out for the RBI governor’s commentary, to know the policy stance, inflation forecast, and growth projection as this will set the market direction.

Auto Sales

 

The auto sales graph is expected to see an upward direction in July. This is due to robust demand in July across all segments except for the tractor segment.

On a monthly basis,  8 out of 21 trading sessions, FIIs were net buyers in the Indian equity cash segments. They have sold only Rs 6567.71 crores in the month of July, the lowest since October 2021 whereas DIIs have bought more than 10500 crores in July.
