Reserve Bank of India Monetary Policy Meeting Likely to Maintain Repo Rate at 6.50%, as indicated by a poll of economists. Factors contributing to this decision include higher-than-expected GDP growth, easing retail inflation, and the scaling down of rate hikes by central banks in advanced countries. The RBI’s focus on liquidity management and concerns about the impact of the monsoon on food inflation also play a role. Market participants are eagerly awaiting the RBI’s comments on these matters.
