RBI keeps repo rate unchanged at 5.5%
MUMBAI: The Reserve Bank of India ( RBI ) held policy rates steady at 5.5% with a unanimous vote from all six members of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), maintaining a 'neutral' stance. The decision aligns with market expectations, as the central bank awaits further transmission of earlier rate cuts and clarity on tariffs. This marks the first status quo under Governor Sanjay Malhotra , who took office earlier this year. The RBI lowered its FY26 inflation forecast to 3.1% from 3.7% earlier, while retaining the growth projection at 6.5%.

In response to US President Donald Trump 's 'dead economy' comment, the RBI governor said, 'We are contributing about 18% to global GDP growth, which is more than the US, where the contribution is expected to be much lower at 11%." Live Events 'So, we are doing very well and will continue to further improve,' he said. 'Volatility Persists' In April, the RBI had cut its FY26 growth forecast from 6.7% to 6.5% in the backdrop of the first set of tariff announcements from the Oval Office 'It is very difficult to predict what the impact will be going forward,' Malhotra said, on whether the projections factor in the impact of punitive tariffs. 'We are hopeful that we will have an amicable solution,' the RBI governor told the media, ahead of the US announcing an additional 25% tariff on Indian goods, following a similar increase on Tuesday. SBI chairman CS Setty said the RBI's decision to hold rates was expected, citing trade uncertainties and lagged policy effects. 'Inflation is likely to remain under check at 3.1% for FY26, and growth impulse is expected to be intact,' he said. LOOMING TARIFF THREAT The MPC's decision came ahead of US President Donald Trump imposing fresh tariffs over New Delhi continuing to purchase oil from Moscow which the Oval Office believes has helped fuel Russia's war efforts. Economists estimate existing 25% tariffs could reduce growth by 20-30 basis points. One basis point is a hundredth of a percentage point. Malhotra said MPC chose to go for status quo amid geopolitical uncertainties and 'wait for further transmission of the frontloaded rate cuts to the credit markets and the broader economy'. The RBI had earlier cut rates by 100 bps and announced a phased 100 bps CRR cut starting September. Goldman Sachs described the policy announcement 'somewhat hawkish'. The 10-year government bond yield climbed 9 basis points (bps) to 6.42%, reaching levels last seen in early May. Yields have risen despite a 50 bps rate cut in June, and Wednesday's decision, along with the governor's comments, tempered expectations of a rate cut in October. 'There will be some volatility; we are living in very uncertain times,' he said. 'The US dollar has seen appreciation and then depreciation, movements on both sides of about 10%.' The Indian rupee edged higher to 87.73 against the dollar, up from its previous close of 87.80. The benchmark BSE Sensex retreated 0.21% to end at 80,543. 'GLOBAL GROWTH ENGINE' Refuting comments from President Trump that India is a 'dead economy,' the governor said that India is contributing significantly to global growth. Economists, including SBI's Soumya Kanti Ghosh, who had advocated easing rates by a quarter percentage point, said the central bank raised the threshold for any further rate cuts. However, Madhavi Arora, chief economist at Emkay Global , argued that focusing narrowly on one-year inflation projections is increasingly misplaced amid shifting global dynamics.

Narayana Health to add 2,000 beds, expand insurance schemes in FY26
Bengaluru-headquartered hospital chain Narayana Health aims to grow its domestic revenue by 10 per cent in FY26, in line with industry benchmarks, a senior company official said. Managing director and chief executive officer Emmanuel Rupert told Business Standard: 'Last fiscal we did about Rs 4,349 crore in India revenue and we want to grow at a rate at which the healthcare industry is growing — over 10 per cent. We look to be on the same momentum and revenue.' Sandhya J, chief financial officer at Devi Shetty's Narayana Health, said the company plans to scale up its Aditi and Arya health insurance schemes in Karnataka and West Bengal. 'The entire healthcare ecosystem is failing in trust. We are on the path to solve the trust deficit and episodic interference of fund transfer. On the back of this, we aim to double down on our insurance scheme and build a strong customer base in Bengaluru, Shivamogga, Mysore, and Kolkata.' Commenting on efforts to improve profit after tax (PAT), which declined 2.3 per cent to Rs 196 crore in Q1 due to increased investments in integrated care and other financial costs, Sandhya said PAT optimisation will improve as the India business grows. Some clinics have started breaking even, reducing losses from the health insurance schemes. 'Over a period of time, we will be able to keep the losses in check and expand margins in the domestic business. PAT should improve. Finance cost will continue to increase due to the Rs 3,000 crore project to add 2,000 beds across India over the next three years. The integrated care dilution will continue over the next year but we hope to maintain a decent level of cash burn.' She added that a large part of the funding will come through bank borrowings and non-convertible debentures (NCDs) as needed. So far, Rs 800 crore has been raised for projects already signed. The CFO noted that about Rs 1,500–2,000 crore in loans might be raised in this fiscal, depending on upcoming project developments. 'We are exploring opportunities to expand, some might be inorganic as well. Borrowings will be linked to the construction progress of our current projects.' During the quarter, revenue from international patients declined, primarily due to reduced footfall from Bangladesh. Narayana expects this trend to continue, given ongoing geopolitical tensions. 'The goal is to keep focusing on domestic growth and see how well we can push the numbers. Eventually, in the next two to three years, we believe that revenue contribution from Bangladesh will go down to zero. Not to miss, the country is building its own healthcare infrastructure.' Looking ahead, Narayana expects its integrated care business to account for a larger share of overall revenue. At present, cardiac sciences and oncology contribute approximately 33 per cent and 16 per cent, respectively. On Tuesday, the Clinical Research team and Medha AI developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that predicts left ventricular ejection fraction from ECG images, enabling early heart failure detection and improved diagnostic access. 'All along we have waited for Western countries to develop these technologies. Today we are developing this because this country is blessed with phenomenally skilled, passionate software engineers and AI experts. This is our strength. We have made massive investments in building the digital platform, which is far ahead of all the other hospitals. With the great combination of a digital platform and the AI tool, healthcare will never be the same,' said Devi Prasad Shetty, chairman and founder of Narayana Health, at a media briefing. The company said that trained on over 100,000 ECG images paired with echocardiogram reports, the model showed strong predictive performance. With external validation across 14 tertiary centres and over 57,000 patients, it identified 97 per cent of individuals with severely reduced ejection fraction (≤35 per cent).
