“I don’t expect the RBI to announce a rate cut in the policy. After three consecutive cuts since February 2025, the repo rate now stands at 5.50%. Inflation has eased sharply—CPI dropped to 2.10% in June —yet global uncertainties, particularly U.S. tariff pressures, demand caution. Maintaining rates allows the RBI flexibility and stability while supporting liquidity measures. So at this stage, further rate cuts seem unlikely, though targeted support for sectors like MSMEs-SMEs is expected.”
