Bank Rate- this is an interest rate that RBI charges to
commercial banks for providing them loans of long term nature.

Repo Rate- this is also interest rate that rbi charges to
commercial banks but for short term loans(approx. 18 days).
another point that differentiate repo rate from bank rate is
that , for taking this short term loan commercial banks has
to deposit some securities to RBI.thats why it is also
called discounting rate.

Reverse Repo- this is interest rate RBI provides to
commercial banks for their deposits with RBI.
