Krisumi Corporation Expects RBI to Keep Rates Unchanged to Support Growth and Housing Demand

As the Reserve Bank of India prepares for its upcoming Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting, industry participants have outlined their expectations regarding the policy outlook amid evolving economic conditions.

Commenting on the upcoming policy decision, Mr. Kunal Rishi, Chief Operating Officer, Krisumi Corporation, said:

"The RBI is currently navigating a complex macroeconomic environment, where it must carefully balance inflation management with the need to sustain growth momentum. While inflationary pressures warrant close monitoring, global uncertainties and evolving geopolitical developments continue to create challenges for economic activity. In such a scenario, maintaining confidence across industries and supporting the broader growth trajectory remain equally important policy considerations. Given the prevailing volatility in the global environment, any further rate hike at this stage could weigh on industry sentiment, particularly across interest-sensitive sectors.

In this context, we believe the RBI should maintain its growth-supportive stance. The ideal approach would be to keep rates unchanged to support economic activity. For the housing sector, lower borrowing costs are critical to sustaining homebuyer demand and enhancing affordability. A supportive rate environment would encourage home purchases, strengthen consumer confidence, and provide a positive impetus to the real estate sector, which has strong linkages with the broader economy."

According to Krisumi Corporation, a stable interest rate environment would help support consumer confidence and housing affordability while contributing to overall economic activity. The company noted that policy stability remains important amid global economic and geopolitical uncertainties.
