    RBI's stance on global growth

  • "Global growth has been slowing more than anticipated through 2016 so far, with weak investment and trade damping aggregate demand. Meanwhile, risks in the form of Brexit, banking stress in Europe, rebalancing of debt-fuelled growth in China have slanted the outlook to the downside."- RBI

  • Statistics showed that India's retail inflation dipped to 5.05% before decreasing further to touch 4.3% in September.

    While the committee members felt that there were risks to the 5% inflation target, it was also reported that they could be acceptable.

    The committee felt that some of the economic activities were showing signs of revival, and would require growth, thus creating room for cutting rates.
