Kya hua
7 October 2026 ko RBI ne repo rate ko 25 basis points badhakar 5.25% se 5.50% kar diya aur policy stance ko neutral se hata kar calibrated tightening par le gaya.
Mujhe kya farq padta hai
Agli bank statement cycle se loan EMIs badh jayengi; aage aur hike ki gunjayish hai kyunki RBI ne CPI inflation 5.2% ka anuman lagaya hai.
Yaad rakh
3.5 saalon mein pehla hike — EMIs up, savings better.
Aage kya umeed karein
- Banks aam taur par policy hikes ko do se teen statement cycles ke andar borrowers tak pass kar dete hain.
- Savings accounts aur fixed deposits par zyada return milna shuru ho jana chahiye kyunki banks deposits ki pricing badal rahe hain.
- Agar supply-side inflation pressure bana rehta hai toh aage hike ki gunjayish hai.
Aur context aur kis par asar
Central bank ne mangalvar ko apne benchmark lending rate ko 25 basis points badha diya, jisse yeh 5.50% par aa gaya. Yeh February 2023 ke baad RBI ka pehla upward move tha. Monetary Policy Committee ne neutral label bhi hata diya aur iski jagah calibrated-tightening stance chuna.
Economic projections zyada badle nahi: FY27 mein real growth 7.1% hai, aur consumer price inflation 5.2% hai. Apne press conference mein, Gov. Sanjay Malhotra ne is baat par zor diya ki RBI price stability aur financial stability dono par apna focus banaye hue hai.
Gharwalon ke liye, home-loan, car-loan aur credit-card EMIs agle do se teen statement cycles mein badhne wale hain, halanki savings aur fixed deposits par accha return milna shuru ho jana chahiye. Pichla hike, February 2023 mein 6.50% tak, rate moves mein sadhe teen saal ke pause ki shuruat tha.
