Borrowers may face higher monthly repayments if the Reserve Bank of India raises its repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.5% at the upcoming Monetary Policy Committee meeting from 5.25%. Rising crude oil prices and rupee depreciation are fueling inflation, leading to expectations of this hike. Banks may adjust EMIs or repayment terms based on individual loan agreements.
