RBI
ups interest rates, lending costs may rise
New Delhi, January 28
The cost of borrowing for consumers and corporates may go up as the RBI
surprised today with a 25 basis points increase in key interest rates
unleashing, in the process, a sharply focused battle against high
consumer inflation which has been corroding household budgets. This was
an 8 for 8 policy as the RBI increased the short-term lending (repo)
rate to 8 per cent from 7.75 per cent and set a path for achieving a 8
per cent consumer inflation target by January next year.
