We expect policy rate to be at current level or lower for a long time: Sanjay Malhotra, Governor, RBI

While policy rates in India are likely to stay at current levels or even go lower for an extended period, there are risks as well, Malhotra said. Inflation is looking benign and going forward, underlying inflation is expected to remain low. It will depend on growth-inflation dynamics as they play out. We are still living in very uncertain times, the RBI Guv added.
