RBI hikes repo rate

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) hiked its repo rate by 0.25 per cent to 8 per cent. The move according to the RBI is to dampen inflation, saying it was now better prepared to deal with the risk of major capital outflows roiling emerging economies. RBI, however, said that if retail inflation eases as projected, it does not foresee further near-term monetary policy tightening.
