RBI MPC meeting begins today; policy rate decision Wednesday. The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meets today, September 29, 2025, in Mumbai to review the economy. They will conclude their discussions on October 1, with the policy rate decision scheduled for 10:00 AM IST.
Governor Sanjay Malhotra leads the MPC, which meets every two months. The committee examines inflation trends, growth data, fiscal updates, and global conditions. Its decisions directly affect lending rates, borrowing costs, and economic activity.
Analysts are closely watching this meeting. Many expect the RBI to cut rates by 25 basis points. They point to low inflation and global uncertainties as reasons. However, some experts believe the MPC may hold rates steady to assess previous moves and protect stability.
Moreover, the committee will discuss improving liquidity and enhancing credit flow to support growth. This meeting arrives amid mixed economic signals — growth is stable, but global risks are rising. Thus, the decision will carry significant weight.
The RBI will announce its decision on Wednesday, October 1, at 10:00 AM. They will stream it live on their official YouTube channel and social media. Governor Malhotra will explain the reasoning behind the decision at a press conference afterward.
For businesses, banks, and households, this meeting matters. Borrowing costs, credit availability, and investment decisions depend on its outcome. Therefore, the MPC’s announcement could influence India’s economy for months.
