With liquidity injections measures, RBI has prepared the ground to facilitate a rate cut by MPC
- The repo rate has remained static for almost two years, but with easing retail inflation and declining GDP growth, there are expectations for a rate cut by the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) to prioritize growth.
- However, the depreciating rupee may delay a rate cut as it could stoke inflation through imports, particularly crude oil.
- The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has taken measures to create conditions for a rate cut, including liquidity infusion measures and reducing the cash reserve ratio.
- Economists from HSBC, DBS Bank, and Deutsche Bank AG expect a 25-basis point rate cut in the February meeting, followed by another cut in April to support growth and improve policy transmission.
