The Hindu  

The Reserve Bank of India further reduced the key interest rate or the repo rate by 40 bps on Friday, after a yet another out-of-turn Monetary Policy Committee meeting as the COVID-19 pandemic induced lockdown continues, albeit with calibrated relaxations. The central bank also extended the loan repayment moratorium for another three months till August 31. “The MPC is of the view that headline inflation may remain firm in the first half of 2020-21, but should ease in the second half, aided also by favourable base effects,” Mr Das said. The central bank also extended the loan repayment moratorium for another three months, till August 31. On the export side, increase in export credit period to 15 months from 1 year and buttressing EXIM Bank through ₹15,000-cr line of credit is also timely,” he added.
