RBI Keeps Repo Rate Unchanged at 5.25%, Raises Growth Forecast

The Reserve Bank of India has held the repo rate steady at 5.25% in its final bi-monthly policy review, with the decision taken unanimously by the Monetary Policy Committee. RBI slightly raised inflation projections for early 2026–27 due to higher precious metal prices, while upgrading GDP growth forecasts to 6.9% and 7.0% for the first two quarters. The move signals policy continuity amid stable macroeconomic conditions.
