India’s Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) remains unchanged at 3.00%, according to the latest data updated on 07 October 2026. The indicator shows no movement from the previous level of 3.00%, signaling a continuation of the Reserve Bank of India’s existing stance on mandatory bank reserves.
By keeping the CRR steady, the authorities are maintaining the same proportion of deposits that commercial banks must hold as cash reserves with the central bank. With no revision to this key ratio, liquidity conditions in the banking system are preserved at prior levels, avoiding any immediate tightening or easing via this channel.
The unchanged reading at 3.00% suggests that, as of the latest update, policymakers have opted for stability in this particular monetary tool, rather than using the CRR to inject or absorb additional liquidity from the financial system.
