At a time when core inflation remains moderately low, the Reserve Bank of India has kept the policy repo rate unchanged at 6.5 percent after giving six consecutive hikes. As announced by RBI governor Shaktikanta Das last month after the monetary policy committee meeting, the decision to pause any hike has been taken for that particular meeting and it will not hesitate to take action if necessary. With the unchanged repo rates, not all banks have taken this into consideration, thus keeping their loan rates and fixed deposit interest rates also unchanged. However, a few banks have indeed hiked their interest rates on fixed deposits, effective from May 2023.
