The growth and inflation projections for the fiscal year remain at 7 percent and 4.5 percent respectively, and the voting stance remains consistent at 5-1. Experts believe that this is a good time to invest in fixed-income products and lock in high yields across various products such as government bonds, corporate bonds, and fixed deposit instruments.
