    India raises interest rate to 5.90% to tame inflation

    New Delhi :  India’s central bank on Friday raised its key interest rate by 50 basis points to 5.90% in its fourth hike this year and said developing economies were facing challenges of slowing growth, elevated food and energy prices, debt distress and currency depreciation.

    Reserve Bank of India Governor Shaktikanta Das projected inflation at 6.7% in the current fiscal year which runs to next March. June was the sixth consecutive month with inflation above the central bank’s tolerance level of 6%, he said in a statement after a meeting of the bank’s monitoring committee.

    He said the central bank will remain focused on the withdrawal of the accommodative monetary policy.

    The bank’s monetary committee slashed the real economic growth forecast to 7% for the current financial year from 7.2% forecast in August.

    The economic growth for the first quarter of the next financial year is expected around 6.7%.

    Das said the world has been confronted with one crisis after another, but India has withstood shocks from the coronavirus pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine.

    Das also said the Indian rupee has depreciated by 4% since April against 14% appreciation in the U.S. dollar.  The Indian rupee has plunged to an all-time low of 81.58 rupees to one U.S. dollar.
