RBI Monetary Policy Committee Meeting: Experts Predict Repo Rate Status Quo
RBI MPC Meeting this week: Date, time, where to watch live streaming of RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra’s monetary policy statement

Experts expect the central bank to maintain a status quo on repo rate.

RBI Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meet date, time: The MPC, under the leadership of Reserve Bank of India (RBI) governor Sanjay Malhotra, met this week for the bi-monthly monetary policy review. The committee will assess several economic parameters, including the repo rate, liquidity conditions, CPI inflation and GDP growth outlook for India's economy.The timing of RBI’s monetary policy assumes significance since it comes at a time when India and the US have failed to reach a trade deal. Instead, US President Donald Trump has announced a 25% tariff on India, with warnings of higher duties due to India’s oil trade with Russia.Experts expect the central bank to maintain a status quo on repo rate. The RBI-led MPC has already reduced the repo rate by 100 basis points or 1% since the start of this year. While CPI inflation has reached benign levels, RBI may choose to hold rates to await clarity on the emerging India-US trade dynamics.The panel comprises the RBI governor, a pair of senior central bank officials, alongside three members appointed by the government.

よかれと思ってやっているのに逆効果!? 愛車の寿命を縮めるNGカーケア5選
愛車を大切に扱っているつもりが、実は知らず知らずのうちに車の寿命を縮めてしまっていることがあります。日常的に何気なく行っているケアでも、間違った方法はトラブルの元に。今回は、意外と多い「やりがちなNG行動」を5つピックアップし、その理由と正しい対処法を詳しく解説します。NG行為1:下り坂でNレンジに入れて燃費を節約しようとする下り坂でAT車のシフトをNレンジにするのは、一見燃費が良くなりそうですが、実は逆効果。現代のAT車はDレンジのままアクセルを戻せば、エンジンが燃料噴射を抑えて効率的に走行してくれます。Nレンジにするとエンジンからの駆動力が断たれ、AT内部の潤滑オイルを送るポンプが停止し、内部の損傷リスクが高まるため非常に危険です。たとえ誤操作しても安全機能で保護されていますが、基本的には絶対に避けましょう。NG行為2:タイヤの空気圧を必要以上に高く設定する空気圧は車ごとに適正値が決まっており、燃費や走行性能を保つためにも守るべきポイントです。高めに設定すれば燃費がよくなると思われがちですが、過剰に高くするとタイヤの衝撃吸収力が低下し、足回りの部品にダメージを与えたり、偏摩耗や雨天
