In balancing act, cuts cash reserve ratio and frees up ₹1.16 lakh crore to support growth
THE Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Friday chose to stay the course on inflation control, refusing to make any knee-jerk reaction to the growth slump reported in the second quarter with a repo rate cut.
RBI's monetary policy committee (MPC) led by governor Shaktikanta Das decided to maintain the repo rate at 6.5% for the 11th time on the trot. The last time it changed the repo rate—the interest rate at which RBI lends money to commercial banks—was in February 2023, when it raised it by 25 basis points.
