expensive

Answer / ashish srivastav
Repo is short term whereas Bank rate is long term. Thus
Repo rates are also called short term lending rate and Bank
rates are called long term lending rates. Now if the Repo
rate > Bank rate, it signifies that short term borrowing of
funds is more expensive for commercial banks. Incedentally,
this short term borrowing through Repo is required by the
banks to maintain its CRR. Thus if Repo rate is increased,
bank will reduce its lending to public because to maintain
the CRR bank will have to now borrow from RBI at a higher
Repo rate. Thus increase of Repo is done to suck liquidity
from the economy.

Answer / harsha
This is one of the tool that RBI has to control
liquidity/inflation.
When RBI revises the rate for lending MONEY against
Securities to BANKS, it is called REPO RATE. Here, the RBI
is the Lender and the Banks are the borrower. If the REPO
rate is raised by the RBI, then Banks have to borrow money
at higher rate.
When RBI revises the rate for lending SECURITIES for Money
to BANKS, it is called REVERSE REPO RATE. Here, the RBI is
the Borrower and the Banks are the Lender. If the REVERSE
REPO rate is raised by the RBI, then RBI has to borrow
money at higher rate.
