Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Shaktikanta Das on Friday cut interest rates by 75 basis points to 4.4 per cent.

He also announced several measures to inject Rs 3.74 lakh crore liquidity into the system.

The RBI said it was maintaining its ‘accommodative’ stance, and would maintain its position ‘as long as necessary’ to revive growth, while ensuring inflation remained within target.

This came a day after finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman released a Rs 1.7 lakh crore package to combat the impact of the 21-day coronavirus lockdown,

RBI has last reduced CRR on February, 2013, by 25 basis points.
