RBI June 2025 Policy: Repo Rate Cut, Impact on EMIs & SIPs


📊 What is Repo Rate and Why Does it Matter?

Repo rate is the interest rate at which RBI lends money to banks. If it is reduced:

  • Banks get money cheaper.

  • Banks can reduce interest on loans and EMIs.

  • This encourages more people to borrow, spend, and invest — which boosts the economy.

💡 Example:

If your home loan interest rate was 9.0%, now your bank may reduce it to 8.5%. This means lower EMIs!

How Much of Your Salary Should You Save and Invest?

Image
Recently, someone asked this question in a public forum, and I thought of sharing a simple and practical answer for everyone’s benefit.   One of the most common questions people ask is: "How much percentage of my salary should I save and invest?" The truth is, there’s no fixed percentage for everyone—it completely depends on your monthly expenses and lifestyle . To get a clear picture, I recommend you start by creating a personal cash flow statement . A cash flow statement helps you track: Your monthly income Fixed and variable expenses Actual savings left at the end of the month Once you know your exact monthly savings , it becomes easy to calculate your saving percentage of income. From there, you can decide how much you want to allocate towards investments like mutual funds, SIPs, or insurance plans. If you need a cash flow Excel sheet , I’d be happy to create and share one with you. It’s a great first step toward gaining control over your finances. https...
