The repo rate is the rate at which the RBI lends money to commercial banks, while the SLR is the percentage of total deposits that banks are required to maintain in the form of liquid assets like cash, gold, or government securities. BPLR (Benchmark Prime Lending Rate) is not a policy rate, but rather an interest rate set by individual banks for their most creditworthy customers.

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    The main reason for demand pull inflation is a combination of all the factors mentioned: an increase in money supply, an increase in commercial expenditure, and an increase in foreign demand for goods. When there is an increase in money supply, people have more money to spend, leading to an increase in demand for goods and services. Additionally, when commercial expenditure increases, businesses are investing more in production and advertising, which also leads to an increase in demand. Lastly, an increase in foreign demand for goods means that there is a higher demand for a country's exports, leading to increased production and inflation.

Banks are required to comply with the policy rates set by the central bank but do not have the authority to decide them.
