The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is projected to increase the benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points in October and again in December, according to SBI Research. This move aims to address rising crude prices and inflationary pressures. The next Monetary Policy Committee meeting is scheduled for 5-7 Oct 2026.
