RBI MPC Outcome | Market wizard Anil Singhvi says no change in rate, stance as expected

Zee Business Managing Editor Anil Singhvi pointed out that the central bank's latest policy has no liquidity-related measures, also along expected lines. 

MPC kept the repo rate, or the key interest rate at which it lends short-term funds to commercial banks, unchanged at 6.5 per cent in its February 2024 review, in line with the expectations of most economists.
