The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has announced the new monetary policy today. The Monetary Policy Committee of RBI, which ran from June 6 to 8, has decided not to make any change in the repo rate for the time being. This means that the repo rate will remain at 6.5 percent.
Two issues were very important before the Monetary Policy Committee headed by the RBI Governor. Firstly, to control inflation in the country and secondly, to deal with adverse global conditions.
This meeting of the Monetary Committee of RBI was very important because of the high retail inflation and the interest rate hike by the central banks of developed countries, especially the US Federal Reserve.
no change in the repo rate
The RBI Governor today announced the decisions of the Monetary Committee on the repo rate, reverse repo rate, and other related decisions. Apart from this, the governor also discussed the current domestic and global economic situation. However, before today's announcement, many economists believed that there would be no change in the repo rate this time as well.
