The Indian rupee closed at 94.945 on Friday in comparison to its previous at at 95.79 on Thursday evening. The Indian rupee strengthened significantly, climbing 74 paise to trade near 95.04 against the US dollar following the Reserve Bank of India decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25 percent. After opening at 95.72 and reaching an intraday high of 95.78, the currency recovered from its previous close of 95.74 as market sentiment shifted in response to the central bank announcement.

Sensex closed the day at 74,243, lower by 117 points or 0.16%. Meanwhile, NSE Nifty ended at 23,366.70, down 49.85 or 0.21%.

The Indian stock market experienced a volatile trading session on June 5, 2026, closing marginally lower as the Sensex fell by 117 points to 74,243 and the Nifty 50 dropped 49.85 points to 23,366.70. This downward trend followed the Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy announcement, which kept the repo rate unchanged at 5.25% while simultaneously lowering growth projections for FY27 to 6.6% and raising the inflation outlook to 5.1% due to global geopolitical risks. Although the central bank and the government introduced measures to attract foreign capital and support the rupee, investor sentiment remained cautious, leading to profit booking and extending the market's losing streak to a second consecutive week.
