How does RBI earn money ? & why the RBI is more of a banker than a regulator. Last year, the RBI transferred over โน87,000 Crore to the government, and it's expected to surpass โน1,00,000 Crore in FY 2025. But how does the RBI generate this enormous revenue? Itโs all about understanding smart financial strategies, something the RBI excels at. In 2023, the RBIโs main source of income was interest, earning a staggering โน1.4 Lakh Crore. Hereโs how it works: - When the government needs money, it raises funds by issuing bondsโessentially loans from the public. - The RBI acts as a middleman, facilitating the sale of these bonds and even buying/selling them in bulk to manage inflation and money supply. - While holding these bonds, the RBI earns interest. Thatโs not all. The RBI also earns interest from its forex reserves, currently valued at $704 Billion Dollars. The RBI also profits from buying and selling foreign currencies, capitalizing on price differences, if any, to generate additional income. Takeaway : Whether you're running a central bank, a business, or a startup, the lesson is clear, smart financial planning is the key to long-term success.

Many traders and investors often overlook fixed income instruments, but having a portion of the portfolio in debt is essential for stability. Buying bonds in India is very easy, yet people do not give much consideration to bonds or debt mutual funds.
