RBI holds rates, vows to keep price stability
\n<\/strong>The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has decided to keep the policy repo rate unchanged at 6.50% for the second consecutive meeting.

The MPC will closely monitor the inflation outlook, considering uncertainties such as the monsoon and El Nino. The focus will be on gradually withdrawing accommodation while supporting growth. The RBI has projected a real GDP growth of 6.5% for 2023-24 and expects CPI inflation to average 5.1% in the current fiscal year.<\/p>\n
