Below the Expectations on Upcoming Monetary Policy by Mr Vimal Nadar, National Director and Head of Research, Colliers India 

“Starting in February, the RBI has reduced the repo rate by 100 bps in 2025 through three successive rate cuts. Given the uncertain global economic outlook, volatile trade environment due to resetting tariffs, we expect the Central Bank to remain vigilant and keep the benchmark lending rate steady at 5.5%. The neutral stance is also likely to continue, signaling the end of easing monetary policy cycle. With the transmission of lower interest rates to end users getting completed, we expect real estate developers & lenders to benefit from reduced financing costs. Additionally, prospective homebuyers have started benefiting from lower home loan interest rates & discounts as we usher into the festive second half of 2025, keeping housing sales steady across the major residential markets of the country.”
