RBI keeps rates unchanged for eighth consecutive time

Ever since the February 2023 review, the Reserve Bank's panel has left the repo rate the benchmark rate below which a lender cannot extend loans and the rate at which banks borrow from the central bank changed at 6.50%.

unThe policy boosted both the equity and money markets with indices closing at record highs while the rupee gained 14 paise against the greenback.

However, fearing delayed rates cut, the bond yield remained above 7% to close at 7.016%.
