Reserve Bank of India reduced its Contingent Risk Buffer from 7.5% to 6.5%, a move that significantly boosted the dividend transferred to the central government for FY26 by nearly Rs 92,000 crore. Analysts noted that without the reduction in the risk buffer, the RBI’s payout to the Centre would have remained below Rs 2 lakh crore, highlighting the central bank’s evolving approach toward balancing financial stability and fiscal support. #RBI #India #Economy #Finance #Banking #Government #Markets
