RBI to conduct 14-day variable rate reverse repo today to control liquidity
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will conduct a 14-day variable rate reverse repo (VRRR) auction on Friday for a notified amount of Rs 50,000 crore. The auction will be held between 10:30 am and 11:00 am, the central bank said in a press release. The reversal of these funds will take place on March 10.
