The decision marked the first rate increase since 2023.<\/p>\n<p>A higher policy rate can make borrowing more expensive if lenders pass on the change.

That persistence helps explain why policymakers are emphasizing tighter financial conditions rather than near-term relief.<\/p>\n<p>For borrowers, sustained inflation can complicate the path of future rates: lenders may remain cautious about lowering loan costs while price pressures are still unsettled.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section aria-labelledby=\"loaning-news-section-3\">\n<h2 id=\"loaning-news-section-3\">Indian Borrowing Costs May Stay High<\/h2>\n<p>HSBC and Goldman Sachs expect the Reserve Bank of India to raise interest rates again in December. That is a forecast, not a confirmed policy decision.<\/p>\n<p>If further increases materialize, prospective borrowers could face a longer period of elevated Indian borrowing costs.
