RBI Expected to Raise Repo Rate Amid Rising Inflation and Economic Growth
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is widely expected to raise its repo rate by 25 basis points in its October policy review, following the US Federal Reserve's recent hike. Inflation in India has risen for three consecutive months, reaching 4.82% in August, with projections of 5.9% in the December quarter. While inflation remains less broad-based than in 2022, economic growth has been stronger than anticipated, presenting a complex scenario for the RBI's Monetary Policy Committee.
