The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), established on April 1, 1935, is India's central banking institution responsible for regulating the monetary policy of the Indian rupee. Its key functions include issuing currency, controlling inflation, acting as a banker to the government and banks, and managing foreign reserves. Following nationalization in 1949, the RBI became wholly government-owned and has a significant role in promoting financial stability and developing the banking system in India.
