The revised policy repo rate will be applicable from 6-6-2025.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-7\">Key Points from RBI\u2019s revised Monetary Policy Statement and New Repo Rate:<\/h3>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-8\">\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-9\">In a meeting led by the <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Governor of RBI<\/span>, Mr. Sanjay Malhotra, the MPC voted to reduce the policy <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">repo rate by 50 basis points (bps) bringing it to <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">5.50%<\/span><\/span>. This adjustment is initiated as part of RBI\u2019s broader mandate to achieve a medium-term consumer price index (\u2018<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">CPI\u2019<\/span>) inflation target along with achieving the <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">sustained economic growth<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-10\">\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-11\">The reduction in repo rate marks a strategic shift in India&#8217;s <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">monetary policy<\/span>, reflecting confidence in inflation control and a commitment to economic growth. The consumers and businesses will benefit from lower borrowing costs, but the uncertainties of market remain, which will require a close monitoring of global and domestic factors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-12\">\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-13\">The Standing Deposit Facility rate is now 5.25%, while the Marginal Standing Facility rate and Bank Rate have been adjusted at 5.75%.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-14\">\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-15\">The RBI has shifted its policy stance from \u2018<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">accommodative<\/span>\u2019 to \u2018<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">neutral<\/span>\u2019 indicating a more balanced approach to future financial policy decisions.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ai-optimize-16\">\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-17\">The MPC highlighted robust economic growth, with Gross Domestic Product (\u2018<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">GDP<\/span>\u2019) expanding by 7.4% in Quarter 4 of 2024-25.
