Mehrishi was speaking at a news briefing after the finance ministry struck a pact with the RBI to make targeting inflation the cornerstone of India's monetary policy, setting a central target for consumer price growth of 4 per cent.
"The Act would be amended in the 2015/16 fiscal year after consultations with the RBI and other stakeholders", Mehrishi told reporters.
