New Delhi: Since the RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das instructed the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) to raise the repo rate by 25 basis points to 6.5 percent in February. A total of six increases, or 250 basis points, have been made to the repo rate. The RBI was compelled to boost its benchmark rate by 250 basis points to 6.50 percent over six increments starting in May 2022 since inflation had exceeded the central bank's tolerance ceiling of 6 percent for ten months in 2022.

Nearly all banks have announced hikes in interest rates on fixed deposits in reaction to the rising repo rate (FDs).
