RBI Keeps Policy Rates on Hold at 7.25%

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) held its policy rate at 7.25 per cent on Tuesday, pausing as widely expected after a spike in food prices sent consumer inflation to an eight-month high.

All but four of 51 analysts polled by Reuters had predicted the RBI would keep the repo rate on hold.

The central bank has reduced the policy rate by a total 75 basis points since January, when it embarked on an easing cycle.
