The Reserve Bank of India on Monday announced a series of steps aimed at maintaining “orderly” market conditions and “congenial” financial conditions.

There are indications that food and fuel prices are stabilising and cost push factors are moderating. In addition, the recent appreciation of the rupee is working towards containing imported inflationary pressures. The RBI remains vigilant about these developments. In support of the accommodative stance of monetary policy, the RBI is committed to ensuring comfortable liquidity and financing conditions in the economy.
