MUMBAI: Indian stock markets ended higher on Friday after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) cut the repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.25 per cent.

The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), led by Governor Sanjay Malhotra, also kept its policy stance neutral.

Along with the rate cut, the RBI sharply lowered its inflation forecast for FY26 to 2 per cent from 2.6 per cent and increased its growth projection to 7.3 per cent from 6.8 per cent earlier.
