Mumbai, Jun 7 (IBNS): The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI's) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), at its second bi-monthly meeting on Wednesday, said it has decided to keep the policy repo rate under the liquidity adjustment facility (LAF) unchanged at 6.25 per cent, on the basis of an assessment of the current and evolving macroeconomic situation.

Consequently, the reverse repo rate under the LAF remains at 6.0 per cent, and the marginal standing facility (MSF) rate and the Bank Rate at 6.50 per cent.

The RBI, in its release said that the decision of the MPC is consistent with a neutral stance of monetary policy in consonance with the objective of achieving the medium-term target for consumer price index (CPI) inflation of 4 per cent within a band of +/- 2 per cent, while supporting growth.
