Monetary Policy – RBI leaves lending rates unchanged. As expected
The
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) kept its key interest rate unchanged at 6
per cent for the fourth time in succession at its final bi-monthly
monetary policy review of the fiscal, citing concerns about the
inflationary push by rising global crude oil prices.
From
a real estate perspective, I would focus on the RBI taking note of the
rather slow transmission mechanism of rate actions by banks to to the
customers, which is reflected in the mention about linking the base rate
with the MCLR. This should help in terms of transmission of rate cuts
to the customer, making the process more efficient.
RBI keeping the repo rate unchanged at 6 percent is in line with market expectations.
