By not reducing any of the key rates in its third-quarter review of the monetary policy, the Reserve Bank has sent a clear signal to commercial banks that they need to reduce their lending rates and make cheaper credit available to the customers. RBI is clearly of the view that banks have yet to pass on the benefits of the previous cuts in interest rates announced by it. Obviously, the Reserve Bank is not happy with the response of the banks, particularly private and foreign banks, to the initiatives taken by it so far. It feels there is enough scope for banks to do more.
As it is, the Reserve Bank in a space of just one quarter brought down the repo rate (the rate at which RBI lends overnight funds to banks) from 9 to 5.5 percent. The reverse repot rate (the rate at which RBI accepts deposits from banks) was brought down to 4 percent, what the RBI Governor Dr. D. Subbarao described as “historically lowest level”. But as he pointed out it’s “transmission in the credit market has so far been subdued”. RBI firmly believes that it’s policy easing had allowed banks considerable room to respond more actively which has not happened. It has thus adopted a wait and watch policy for the time being, to monitor the response from the banks and give them more time.
The bankers, on the other hand, feel that they have responded to the extent possible. They argue that the average cost of funds to them is still high and lending and borrowing rates can come down only when the fund costs come down. Some even expressed disappointment at the RBI “holding back it’s activism” in reducing the key rates to make cheaper funds available to them. But by and large, bankers agree that the RBI policy is on expected lines.
Through its earlier initiatives the RBI has infused liquidity of over Rs. 4 lakh crore into the system improving the liquidity situation, significantly.
It is not that the doors for further reduction in key rates have been closed. On the contrary, the RBI has made it clear that it will respond to any adverse development. So, more cuts outside the policy can happen anytime. The current pause could only be a temporary thing.
Another message that the RBI has given is that there is a clear evidence of deeper consequences of the global downturn on the Indian economy which can lead to its further slowdown. Industrial activity, particularly in the manufacturing and the infrastructural sectors, is decelerating. The services sector too, which has been the prime engine of growth for the last several years, will slowdown mainly in construction, transport, hotels, tourism and trade sectors. . The consequences have been more pronounced after October 2008 which has led the RBI to revise its GDP growth projection for the current financial year to 7 percent against the earlier 7.7 percent. In fact the Survey conducted by the 13 professional forecasters has put it at 6.8 percent.
That is all the more reason for the banks to respond more vigorously to the rate cuts already effected.
At the same time , there are two positive factors at play. One, the inflation rate has been falling sharply for the last 10 months to 5.6 % with only a small aberration in the latest figure which is attributed to the Truckers strike during that period. The current projections are that the rate will fall further to about 3 percent by March end, though it is reflected more in the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) than in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).That is primarily because of the fall in international crude oil prices, steel and select food items. A fall in demand has also played some role in this.
The second positive factor is the expected increase in consumption demand in the days ahead, reflecting rise in basic exemption limits in tax and tax slabs, the 6th pay commission award, debt waiver to farmers, and the expenditure that would be incurred in the run up to elections in a few months from now.
All this will allow an elbow room to the government to cut the key rates further, if the situation so demands.
The RBI has also warned that the fiscal measures to boost growth and lower revenue receipts could sharply widen the fiscal deficit from the earlier estimate of 2.5 percent to 5.9 % .The combined shortfall of the centre and the state governments could come to 8.5 %, or even more.
As the Prime Minister’s Economic Advisory Council pointed out the other day, both the saving and investment rates are likely to be lower in the current fiscal. The saving rates may fall due to larger negative savings of the Government. The investment rate will be less by 2.5 percentage points compared to the previous year, due to financing constraints facing Indian enterprises.
The widening trade deficit is a matter of concern as is the moderation in capital inflows. Though the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has shown an increase in the current financial year the portfolio investment has recorded a substantial outflow. The institutional investors have sold about $10 billion of their investment in Indian companies to cover losses in their home markets.
With Indian economy getting more and more integrated with the world economy and the US, Europe and Japan already experiencing recession, India can not remain totally insulated. A less than optimistic sentiment in the economy is therefore quite natural. As the Prime Minster pointed out India’s economic problems would not be over in the current year and could spill over into 2009-10, but the “Government will continue its efforts for a supporting environment next year also. Both monetary and fiscal policy will have to be tailored.” The Deputy Charmin of the Planning Commission Shri Montek Singh Ahluwalia has also spoken of innovative interim measures. These include floating of tax- free bonds ‘to provide refinancing facilities to banks to encourage them to offer long term debts” to companies investing in infrastructure sectors which have long gestation periods.
It is a matter of satisfaction that everybody agrees that the Indian economy will recover earlier than the world economy, once things begin to improve. (PIB Features)

RBI signals another rate cut; slashes repo, CRR
Signaling a further drop in interest rates, the Reserve Bank of India has announced the reduction of the repo rate under the liquidity adjustment facility (LAF) by 100 basis points from 6.5 per cent to 5.5 per cent with immediate effect.
The reverse repo rate under the LAF will also be slashed by 100 basis points from 5.0 per cent to 4.0 per cent with immediate effect.
The apex bank also announced that the cash reserve ratio (CRR) of scheduled banks will reduced by 50 basis points from 5.5 per cent to 5.0 per cent from the fortnight beginning January 17, 2009.
The RBI announcement said that the reduction in the CRR will inject additional liquidity of around Rs. 20,000 crore to the financial system.
It is expected that the reduction in the policy interest rates and the CRR will further enable banks to provide credit for productive purposes at appropriate interest rates. The Reserve Bank on its part would continue to maintain a comfortable liquidity position in the system.
Even as some public sector and private sector banks have cut lending rates in response to the Reserve Bank’s monetary policy stance, concerns over rising credit risk together with the slowing of economic activity appear to have moderated credit growth.
The Reserve Bank continues to urge banks to monitor their loan portfolio and take early action, including debt restructuring where warranted, to prevent the rise of bad assets down the road and safeguard the gains of the last several years in improving asset quality. At the same time, banks should price risk appropriately and ensure that quality enterprises continue to get funding.
The Reserve Bank appreciates that risk management is difficult even in normal circumstances; it is even more difficult in an environment of uncertainty and downturn.
The fundamentals of the indian economy continue to be strong. Once the crisis is behind us, and calm and confidence are restored in the global markets, economic activity in India would recover sharply. But a period of painful adjustment is inevitable, the Bank pointed out.

Repo rate cut, RBI warns of global recession trends
MUMBAI: Announcing, further measures for Monetary and Liquidity Management, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) today cut repo rate by 50 basis points. With this new repo rate stands at 7.5 per cent.
In its Mid-Term Review of the Annual Policy Statement for 2008-09, the Reserve Bank of India indicated that in the context of the uncertain and unsettled global situation and its indirect impact on our domestic economy and our financial markets, it would closely and continuously monitor the situation and respond swiftly and effectively to developments. In doing so, the Reserve Bank will employ both conventional and unconventional measures.
RBI noted that global financial conditions continue to remain uncertain and unsettled, and early signs of a global recession are becoming evident. These developments are being reflected in sharp declines in stock markets across the world and heightened volatility in currency movements. International money markets are yet to regain calm and confidence and return to normal functioning.
It was also indicated in the Mid-Term Review that the current challenge for the conduct of monetary policy is to strike an optimal balance between preserving financial stability, maintaining price stability and sustaining the growth momentum. Inflation, in terms of the wholesale price index (WPI), has been softening steadily since August 9, 2008 and has declined to 10.68 per cent for the week ended October 18, 2008.
Globally, pressures from commodity prices, including crude, appear to be abating. The moderation in key global commodity prices, if sustained, would further reduce inflationary pressures. On the growth front, it is important to ensure that credit requirements for productive purposes are adequately met so as to support the growth momentum of the economy, RBI said.
Domestic financial markets have been functioning normally. Prudent regulatory surveillance and effective supervision have ensured that our financial sector has been and continues to be robust. However, the global financial turmoil has had knock-on effects on our financial markets; this has reinforced the importance of focusing on preserving financial stability,
The Reserve Bank has reviewed the current and evolving macroeconomic situation and liquidity conditions in the global and domestic financial markets. Based on this review, it has decided to take the following further measures:
(i) On October 20, 2008, the Reserve Bank announced a reduction in the repo rate under the Liquidity Adjustment Facility (LAF) by 100 basis points from 9.0 to 8.0 per cent. In view of the ebbing of upside inflation risks as also to address concerns relating to the moderation in the growth momentum, it has been decided to reduce the repo rate under the LAF by 50 basis points to 7.5 per cent with effect from November 3, 2008.
(ii) The cash reserve ratio (CRR) of scheduled banks is reduced by 100 basis points from 6.5 per cent to 5.5 per cent of net demand and time liabilities (NDTL). This will be effected in two stages: by 50 basis points retrospectively with effect from the fortnight beginning October 25, and by a further 50 basis points prospectively with effect from the fortnight beginning November 8, 2008. This measure is expected to release around Rs.40,000 crore into the system.
(iii) On September 16, 2008, the Reserve Bank had announced, as a temporary and ad hoc measure, that scheduled banks could avail additional liquidity support under the LAF to the extent of up to one per cent of their NDTL and seek waiver of penal interest. It has now been decided to make this reduction permanent. Accordingly, the Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR) will stand reduced to 24 per cent of NDTL with effect from the fortnight beginning November 8, 2008.
(iv) In order to provide further comfort on liquidity and to impart flexibility in liquidity management to banks, it has been decided to introduce a special refinance facility under Section 17(3B) of the Reserve bank of India Act, 1934. Under this facility, all scheduled commercial banks (excluding RRBs) will be provided refinance from the Reserve Bank equivalent to up to 1.0 per cent of each bank's NDTL as on October 24, 2008 at the LAF repo rate up to a maximum period of 90 days. During this period, refinance can be flexibly drawn and repaid.
(v) On October 15, 2008 the Reserve Bank announced, purely as a temporary measure, that banks may avail of additional liquidity support exclusively for the purpose of meeting the liquidity requirements of mutual funds (MFs) to the extent of up to 0.5 per cent of their NDTL. A similar facility of liquidity support for non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) is also found to be necessary to enable them to manage their funding requirements. Accordingly, it has now been decided, on a purely temporary and ad hoc basis, subject to review, to extend this facility and allow banks to avail liquidity support under the LAF through relaxation in the maintenance of SLR to the extent of up to 1.5 per cent of their NDTL. This relaxation in SLR is to be used exclusively for the purpose of meeting the funding requirements of NBFCs and MFs. Banks can apportion the total accommodation allowed above between MFs and NBFCs flexibly as per their business needs.
(vi) As indicated in the Reserve Bank's press release of September 16, 2008, as on some previous occasions, the Reserve Bank will continue to sell foreign exchange (US dollar) through agent banks to augment supply in the domestic foreign exchange market or intervene directly to meet any demand-supply gaps. The Reserve Bank would either sell the foreign exchange directly or advise the bank concerned to buy it in the market. All the transactions by the Reserve Bank will be at the prevailing market rates and as per market practice. Entities with bulk forex requirements can approach the Reserve Bank through their banks for this purpose.
(vii) It has been decided, as a temporary measure, to permit Systemically Important Non-Deposit taking Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs-ND-SI) to raise short- term foreign currency borrowings under the approval route, subject to their complying with the prudential norms on capital adequacy and exposure norms. Details in this regard have been notified separately and are available on the Reserve Bank's web site.
(viii) Under the Market Stabilisation Scheme (MSS), Government Securities (treasury bills and dated securities) have been issued to sterilise the expansionary effects of forex inflows. In the context of forex outflows in the recent period, it has been decided to conduct buy-back of MSS dated securities so as to provide another avenue for injecting liquidity of a more durable nature into the system. This will be calibrated with the market borrowing programme of the Government of India. The securities proposed to be bought back and the timing and modalities of these operations are being notified separately.
The Reserve Bank will continue to closely monitor the developments in the global and domestic financial markets and will take swift and effective action as appropriate, an official communiqué said.

Indian economy at point of inflexion, RBI sounds alarm bells
There is increasing evidence that the US slowdown is spreading via the trade and financial channels.
MUMBAI:The reserve Bank of India today sounded alarm bells on the state of the country’s economy.
Starting that aggregate supply conditions in the Indian economy have shown resilience in the second quarter of 2008-09 in the face of a deteriorating global macroeconomic and financial environment, the Central Bank said: “There are, however, growing indications that the underlying economic cycle is turning in tune with global economic developments and that domestic economic activity is straddling a point of inflexion.”
The highlights of the overall assessment as presented in the mid-year review by RBI Governor D Subbarao are:
• Aggregate demand conditions continue to be mainly investment-driven, although some slackening which set in during the first quarter of 2008-09 appears to have become broad based.
• Reflecting the aggregate demand pressures, key monetary and banking aggregates – money supply, deposit and non-food credit growth – have been expanding during the year so far at rates that are significantly elevated relative to indicative trajectories given in the Annual Policy Statement of April 2008.
• The developments in monetary conditions resulted in a tightening of liquidity conditions in domestic financial markets through the second quarter of 2008-09.
• Signs of deterioration in the fiscal situation appear to be adding to aggregate demand pressures in the economy.
• Domestically, imported inflation pressures have been keeping headline inflation at elevated levels with considerable uncertainty as to where it will peak and when.
• Since the First Quarter Review of July 2008, global economic prospects have weakened further. The global economy is facing the deflationary effects of the financial crisis. There is increasing evidence that the US slowdown is spreading via the trade and financial channels.
• The outlook for the emerging economies remains positive, but uncertainties about their resilience to the global shocks have increased.
• The international financial system is gripped by extreme risk aversion in the wake of spectacular failures among the world's largest financial institutions, including several credited with history and tradition.
• Conditions in global financial markets have worsened with the freezing of inter-bank markets in US and Europe necessitating massive liquidity injection facilities from central banks in these economies, reduction of policy rates, recapitalisation of troubled private banks by governments, coordinated action by European governments to bail out weak banks and guaranteeing of all deposits in the banking system in many countries.
• In the overall assessment, global economic conditions have worsened and the future path of their evolution has turned highly uncertain. The broadening slowdown of economic activity in the advanced economies is beginning to impact the macroeconomic prospects of emerging economies, with those reliant on exports and on international financial markets for external financing needs likely to be the most vulnerable. Inflation remains elevated and a key risk to global economic prospects.
