Sensex

Dismal economic growth projections, heavy selling of financial sector stocks and IMF worries on the current recession have significantly dented investors' sentiments.


10-yr yield (%)

Bond yields declined marginally on expectations of increased open market operations and additional liquidity measures from RBI.

USD-INR

The rupee continues to weaken due to the strengthening of USD amid risk aversion and rising demand for safe assets.

CPI combined (%)

Falling food prices and low demand for non-essential goods due to the nationwide lockdown has contributed to the softening of consumer inflation.
