Indian stock market: The week starting from April 6, 2026 is going to be very special for the Indian stock market. The impact of many big developments can be seen on the stock market this week. Today, through this news, we are going to tell you about 5 such factors, which can affect the movement of the stock market next week.
RBI MPC meeting
The meetings of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Reserve Bank of India for the financial year 2026–27 (FY27) will run from Monday, April 6 to Wednesday, April 8. Ajit Mishra, Research SVP, Religare Broking, said, “The monetary policy decision of the Reserve Bank of India will be an important event, in which participants will be closely watching the signals on interest rates and inflation expectations.”
The market expects that in view of rising inflation, the Reserve Bank will keep the repo rate stable or there is a possibility of a slight change in it. Apart from this, the Governor’s comments on the country’s GDP growth and inflation can also have an impact on investor sentiments.
tension in the middle east
The sixth week of war is going on between America and Iran. Instead of decreasing, the tension is increasing. According to reports, Iran has shot down two American planes, while Donald Trump has warned that if Tehran does not agree to any agreement or does not reopen the Strait of Hormuz, then he will create havoc.
If the tension between the two countries increases further, then foreign investors (FIIs) will withdraw money from the Indian stock market and invest it in safe investments like gold or dollars. This will increase selling in the stock market and companies and investors will suffer huge losses.
crude oil prices
Oil prices are on the rise due to the blockade of the Homurz Strait and the crisis in Iran and the Red Sea. On Saturday, the benchmark Brent crude reached $109. Before the start of the war, Brent crude was trading around $72 per barrel, but since the US and Israel attack on Iran on February 28, its prices have increased by more than 50 percent.
Since India imports 80 percent of its oil needs. In such a situation, if crude oil becomes expensive, the expenditure on imports will also increase. This will weaken the rupee and increase pressure on shares of companies like paint, tires and lubricants.
Fourth quarter (Q4 FY26) results
Companies have started announcing their fourth quarter results from this week. In such a situation, the effect of the results of the companies and the profits earned by them will be visible on their shares.
FII selling and US data
In the week starting from Monday, the impact of the statements of US Federal Reserve officials and inflation data will be seen on the stock market. If inflation figures in America are higher than expected, then the Federal Reserve may increase interest rates. Due to high interest rates for a long time, it has a negative impact on the global stock markets. Similarly, if American bond yields increase, then selling may be seen in the Indian stock market.
