The Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) commenced its three-day meeting on April 6, 2026, with significant policy decisions expected to be announced on April 8 at 10:00 AM. Chaired by Governor Sanjay Malhotra, the committee will evaluate critical factors including interest rates, inflation, and growth outlook amid rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and a depreciating rupee.
