RBI’s first monetary policy statement in 2016- (Reserve Bank of India) (05 Apr 2016)

MANU/RPRL/0099/2016

Banking

The Reserve Bank of India reduced its rate under the liquidity adjustment facility to 6.5 per cent and the cash reserve ratio to 90 per cent – a massive 5 per cent drop – in efforts to counter what it perceives are downwards trends in global markets. Reportedly, subdued crude oil prices and better than expected crop yields, despite water shortages, sustained a reduction in inflation. The RBI expects a further deceleration in inflation rates, with also potential slowdown of economic growth.
