RBI cuts repo rate by 25 basis points, slashes GDP growth estimates

Live Mint  

The Reserve Bank of India today cut its benchmark interest rates for the fifth time this year to boost economic growth. The RBI today cut repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.15%, which takes its cumulative cuts so far this year to 135 bps. The RBI also cut its GDP growth estimates to 6.1%, from earlier estimate of 6.9%. Several measures announced by the Government over the last two months are expected to revive sentiment and spur domestic demand, especially private consumption," the RBI added. The RBI had earlier mandated banks to link all fresh floating rate home and auto loans to an external benchmark like the repo rate or the rate on short-term treasury bills since the start of this month.
