The Nifty kept the pace ahead and didnt disappoint investors by registering an all-time high on 3rd April. The optimism on D-street was fuelled by the core sector, Which showed stronger growth in February at 2.1 percent Vs 1.5 percent in January, Also the government recorded the highest GST collection in the last month of the fiscal 2018-19 at Rs 1.06 trillion. However, after making the top, benchmark indices drifted in the negative territory with Skymet report concerns, the private weather forecaster which estimated that monsoon could be below average due to the El Nino effect.

In the aftermath of weekly expiry and RBI Monetary meet the market witnessed high volatility and profit booking from a higher level which finished the indices below 11,600 Mark. The MPC decided to reduce the policy rate by 25 bps to 6 percent, A key takeaway from the policy is the projection of benign inflation for FY2020.
