RBI Raises Repo Rate by 25 Basis Points After Nearly 4 Years
The Reserve Bank of India increased the repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.50%, marking the first hike in nearly four years. This move responds to rising inflation risks driven by higher crude prices and weaker agricultural output. Economic growth has exceeded expectations, and global interest rate changes are pressuring capital flows and emerging markets, prompting RBI to adjust its monetary policy.
