RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra Meets Finance Minister Ahead of October MPC Meeting
Reserve Bank of India Governor Sanjay Malhotra met Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman following India's record 7.8% GDP growth in Q1 of the current financial year. The RBI's Monetary Policy Committee is set to meet in October, with the central bank maintaining the repo rate at 5.25% in August. An SBI report recommends raising interest rates by 25 basis points in October and December due to external shocks, rising crude oil prices, and inflation concerns amid geopolitical uncertainties.
