In light of SEBI Insider Trading Regulations, explain with reasons whether the following information is deemed as price sensitive : RBI has increased its repo rate by 25 basis points.

Answer & Explanation:

Information Status: Not Unpublished Price Sensitive Information (UPSI) Reason: An increase in the RBI repo rate by 25 basis points is a public announcement made by the Reserve Bank of India. This information is generally available to the public and affects the entire economy and financial markets, not just a specific company in an unpublished manner. Therefore, it does not qualify as UPSI under SEBI Insider Trading Regulations.
