RBI MPC keeps policy rate unchanged at 5.25%

The Reserve Bank of India's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) kept the policy repo rate unchanged at 5.25%. The MPC observed that the higher inflation was mostly on account of fuel and food, with little sign of generalisation of price pressures so far. The status quo reflects a cautious stance amid the recent uptick in retail inflation.
