RBI Monetary Policy Update – August 2025

The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) held its latest meeting from August 4 to 6.

Repo rate remains unchanged at 5.50% – meaning interest rates for banks and loans will stay the same for now.

Although inflation is low and the economy is growing well (India’s GDP grew by 7.4% in Q1), the RBI is watching closely before making any further rate cuts.

Experts believe the RBI may cut the repo rate later this year if prices stay stable and growth continues.

 This means loans may get cheaper in the coming months, helping businesses and consumers.
