The governor said there was some loss of economic momentum due to the third pandemic wave, and the demand for contact intensive sector is muted.

Further, the Central bank has left the benchmark interest rate or repo rate — the rate at which banks borrow from the Central bank — unchanged at 4 per cent for the tenth consecutive time and decided to continue with an accommodative stance.
