22 June 2026 | Reserve Bank of India
The RBI released the June 2026 issue of its monthly Bulletin on 22 June 2026, with one speech, one article and current statistics. The article on the State of the Economy says geopolitical tensions and trade disruptions persisted despite the recent interim peace deal in West Asia.
It states that the Indian economy grew at 7.8 per cent in Q4 of 2025-26, supported by private consumption and fixed investment, that high-frequency indicators for the first two months suggest sustained momentum in 2026-27, and that CPI inflation remained anchored despite a pick-up in May. The external sector remained resilient, supported by FDI inflows and adequate forex reserves. The views are those of the authors, not the RBI.
Key facts- Bulletin: June 2026, released 22 June 2026
- Q4 2025-26 GDP growth: 7.8%
- Drivers: private consumption and fixed investment
- Note: article views are the authors' own
Exam takeaway: The State of the Economy article in the RBI Bulletin is written by RBI staff and not an official RBI position.
