RBI THROWS A GOOGLY - HIKES REPO RATE BY 25 BPS

about 13 years ago

This rate hike is keeping in line with the Urjit Patel report where the RBI is looking at a shift from WPI to CPI and priority remains price stability though the Governor did voice concern over the falling growth. The forward guidance given by RBI is dovish and this would be highly data dependent. A "dovish" stance means there are no aggressive undertones to the document. On the other hand, a "hawkish" tone would have meant the exact opposite

LETTER TO THE PM

about 6 years ago

On the occasion of Republic Day, an open letter to the PM, urging him to look into matters which are a priority today. It’s a tongue-in-cheek message and hope everyone takes it in the right spirit; after all, we all are living in an extremely intolerant India today, negating so many things written in the Constitution, the very thing we are celebrating as “Republic Day.”

STRIKING WHERE IT HURTS

about 6 years ago

Privatisation of any PSU is a contentious issue for any Govt as dealing with the trade unions is a huge hurdle. No one really wants to take this risk. The Govt this time has decided to take the plunge, which is why it wants to test the waters with two banks first. But it needs to get this right.

RBI – SENSIBLE ECONOMICS

about 6 years ago

While remaining aggressively accommodative without cutting rates, RBI did a very good job. Clearly, RBI has time-and-again showed us during this pandemic that it has so many more tools; tinkering with the interest rate is just one of them and need not be the whole and soul of the policy decisions.

DO WE REALLY NEED MORE BANKS?

about 6 years ago

At the end of all this, the underlying question is whether we need so many more banks? Cities and metros are as such flooded with banks and rural India will rarely bank with private sector. You go to places like Kaza in Spiti or Hanle in Ladakh, we still find a PSU ATM or bank; this is even today.

RBI KEEPS EYE ON INFLATION

about 4 years ago

Under the current circumstances, this is the best move which RBI could have made and we need to take recourse on that. Just as RBI remained overall optimistic about the Indian growth story, we too need to our heads over the clouds and not fall for all the recessionary talks – our domestic power in itself is huge and that should be a good factor to keep our focus on.

RBI GOES TONGS & HAMMER BEHIND INFLATION

about 4 years ago

A few days ago, the US Fed hiked rates by an aggressive 75 bps and yesterday the Bank of England raised rates by 50 bps. And that pretty much indicated the RBI’s decision today – aggressive and decisive.RBI hiked the rate by, as expected, a 50 bps with immediate effect; aggressive but much needed to tame the wild inflation.

RBI - REASSURING AND DESTRESSING

about 6 years ago

There is no over-arching moratorium granted – that’s the bottomline.

RBI – ASSUMES ROLE OF A LIGHTHOUSE AS STORM RAGES

about 5 years ago

When the entire globe is in a turmoil, its best to wait out the storm and allow things to settle before making major decisions – that’s how RBI’s MPC has viewed its take on interest rate decision. Hoping that the war troubles will end soon and crude will soon start retracting, while keeping an eye on inflation, which RBI thinks is not a big cause for worry, the MPC unanimously voted to maintain a status quo.

Q1FY21 GDP – COVID KILLS GROWTH

about 6 years ago

No one is going to take these numbers too seriously as the data is not 100% given the challenges it had in collection of data on account o the lockdown and pandemic. The markets most certainly did not – it fell today not on account of the expected GDP contraction but due to re-emergence of skirmishes at the India-Chinese border and implementation of the new margin system from September. A fall in GDP was already discounted by the market thus it has moved on beyond Q1.

RAJAN'S FIRST CREDIT POLICY - FOLLOWS FOOTSTEPS OF PREDECESSOR

There was so much anxiety over this speech because it was to convey what her opinions were about Brexit and how Britain planned to achieve it.

This is Rajan firing his last salvo and a good one at that! Keeping up with the promised deadline of 1sy July to release clarified and re-clarified guidelines for 'on tap' Licensing of Universal Banks in the Private Sector and the new, clarified guidelines are good. The biggest takeaway from this - all the big corporates, who dreamed of owning a bank too, well, their dreams have most certainly been crushed. The RBI has explicitly said that large industrial houses

MARKETS AT NEW HIGH - WHAT EXACTLY ARE WE CELEBRATING?

Willing to take the risk of being called a party pooper, one cannot understand the reason for this surge at this juncture. Pre-budget rally?

RBI DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES!

about 7 years ago

The lockdown is not in the hands of the RBI but it has done what it could do the best – keep the NBFCs and banks alive. The measures announced today will not arrest the economic fall but what RBI has tried to do is assure the lenders that it will continue to do what is required, as liquidity is what will matter the most once lockdown is lifted.

NOT THE BORING 25 bps BUT INTERESTING 35 bps CUT!

about 7 years ago

Neither yours nor mine; neither 25 nor 50; RBI trimmed rates by 35 bps while maintaining its accommodative stance – this means there could more rate cuts or status quo but no rate hike. Well, 35 bps is closer to the 50 than to 25, that’s the silver lining here and we have given up going by the multiples of 25.
