How repo rate used as a tool to control inflation?

Whenever the banks have any shortage of funds they can borrow it from RBI. Repo rate is the rate at which our banks borrow rupees from RBI. A reduction in the repo rate will help banks to get money at a cheaper rate. When the repo rate increases borrowing from RBI becomes more expensive. Hence, When the repo rate is hiked, the bank gets loan at a higher interest rate from RBI, and henceforth Banks give loan to retail customer/ corporate customer at a more higher rate, so demand for the loan from the customers of bank decreases decreases and there is less money in the market. Since, the liquidity of the marked is sucked by increasing Repo Rate, public can't afford to pay more for any particular commodity, and hence the inflation of the economy gets controlled.

Why has the Repo rate taken precedence over the bank rate as a short term?

Repo rate is basically to fulfill the short term fund requirements of the firms.By increasing repo rate the central bank tries to absorb liquidity from the economy,but it does not directly affect the market interest rate as banks try to bear the burdenof additional money them selves in order not to loose customers as the other banks might be less dependent on repo rate and might not increase the interest rate on lending. But an increase in bank rate makes credit directly dearer for the banks and as it is long term in nature so banks increase their interest rate on lending, which reduces plannned aggregate investment in the economy and thus hampers growth directly.Repo rate increase might also affect investment but the impact is not that severe and direct as bank rate.As the central bank has to maintain a balance between the growth and inflation rate, so it is trying to control inflation by taking other monetary measures that does not affect the growth of the economy directly.
