RBI Hits Pause Button for unchanged the repo rate for the third consecutive time

RBI Repo Rate: Governor Shaktikanta Das said today that the Reserve Bank of India has kept the ‘repo’ rate or ‘key lending rate’ unchanged at 6.5% for the third consecutive time.

RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das said that the six-member Monetary Policy Committee has unanimously decided to keep the repo rate unchanged.

Das said that the ‘Monetary Policy Committee‘ unanimously decided to keep the repo rate unchanged at 6.50% after detailed consideration of all relevant aspects.

He further said that five out of six monetary policy experts were in favor of keeping the repo rate unchanged, focusing on aligning inflation with the growth target.

However, expressing concern over the rapid increase in inflation in the past few months, Das said, “The central bank is vigilant to maintain its strictness.” Inflation spiked in July and August due to increase in vegetable prices. However, vegetable prices may come down soon.

With the repo rate unchanged, the Standing Deposit Facility (SDF) rate stood at 6.25% and the Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) rate and bank rate stood at 6.75%.

Similarly, loan interest rates are also expected to remain unchanged.
