RBI Monetary Policy: The Reserve Bank of India maintained key lending rates unchanged for an eighth consecutive time with a larger split in votes. Governor Shaktikanta Das emphasised the need for price stability in the growing economy. The unexpected vote split indicates a potential shift towards a rate cut in future policies, though 'greater elbow room' for price stability may not demand an immediate cut. The RBI's stance aligns with market expectations, with a focus on balancing inflation and growth. Despite robust economic growth, inflation remains a concern.
