Whenever the banks have any shortage of funds they can
borrow it from RBI. Repo rate is the rate at which our
banks borrow rupees from RBI. A reduction in the repo rate
will help banks to get money at a cheaper rate. When the
repo rate increases borrowing from RBI becomes more
expensive.
The rate charged by RBI for its Repo operations is 4.75%
and Reverse Repo rate is 3.25%.
