RBI employees staged a rare protest against a new promotion policy that makes Grade B-to-C advancement vacancy-linked, with officers warning the move could sharply slow career progression at the central bank.

One thing most people realize too late: Phase 1 is a filtering exam.
Not a perfection exam.
You do not need to attempt every question.

You need to:
• Identify easy marks quickly
• Avoid low-probability guesses
• Manage time aggressively
• Stay calm when the paper feels unfamiliar
That changes your score more than studying one extra PDF.

Another major mistake?
Ignoring mock analysis.
Most aspirants only track scores.
Top performers track:
• Accuracy by section
• Time lost per question
• Repeated mistakes
• Weak decision patterns

From ₹3 to around ₹93 per dollar (1947–2026) may look like a simple fall of the rupee, but it is not just a sign of economic weakness. Over time, inflation in India has been higher than in the US, which naturally leads to currency depreciation.

India has also run persistent trade deficits, meaning higher demand for dollars for imports like oil.

In addition, global factors such as wars, financial crises, and capital flows have strengthened the dollar periodically.

So, this trend reflects a combination of inflation, external sector dynamics, and global currency movements rather than a pure “decline” of the Indian economy.

India’s central bank is in talks with global regulators, Indian lenders and government officials to understand the potential risks posed by Anthropic’s new artificial intelligence model Mythos, three sources said.

The Reserve Bank of India’s preliminary assessment – just like that of global regulators – suggests Mythos could pose cybersecurity risks by accelerating the discovery and exploitation of software vulnerabilities.

Anthropic's Mythos AI can autonomously scan vast codebases to detect and chain together previously unknown vulnerabilities at a speed no human could match. Experts warn this capability could bring down critical systems like banks or hospitals within hours if misused. The risk is amplified in India’s banking and telecom sectors, which still depend on older, harder-to-patch systems, making them prime targets for rapid exploitation.

Recently, according to the World Economic Outlook released by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), India has slipped from being the fourth largest economy in the world to the sixth position in terms of nominal GDP. India now stands sixth after the United States, China, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom. However, this decline is more a result of statistical adjustments and exchange rate movements than any fundamental weakness in the Indian economy.

Major Factors Behind the Decline:

Exchange Rate and Depreciation of the Rupee: Since the IMF compares economies based on nominal GDP in US dollar terms, the exchange rate plays a decisive role. The significant depreciation of the Indian rupee against the US dollar has reduced the dollar value of India’s GDP in global markets, thereby affecting its ranking.

Base Year Revision: In February 2026, India revised the base year for GDP calculation from 2011–12 to 2022–23. This change was necessary to reflect current consumption and production patterns more accurately. However, due to this statistical revision, a downward correction of around 3.5% in nominal GDP estimates was observed, which temporarily impacted the ranking.

Impact of Global Demand and Inflation: Higher inflation levels in developed countries (especially the UK and Germany) have increased their nominal GDP. In contrast, India has managed to keep inflation relatively under control. Since nominal GDP includes inflation, European economies gained a relative advantage in rankings.

Global Economic Slowdown: At the global level, supply chain disruptions and geopolitical tensions (such as the Ukraine conflict and crises in West Asia) have led to a rise in crude oil prices. This has put pressure on India’s fiscal deficit and inflation.
