MUMBAI - Umesh Kumar Mehta, chief investment officer, SAMCO Mutual Fund, said the following on the Reserve Bank of India's third bi-monthly monetary policy for 2025-26 (Apr-Mar) detailed on Wednesday:
Keeping the repo rate unchanged is the most prudent policy action taken by the MPC. Given that the Indian rupee is weakening and narrowing of the global interest rate differentials, the scope for rate reduction was slim. In the interest of stability of the currency given the volatile trade conditions, status quo on interest rate is the best that the monetary authority can do. End
