RBI : With India’s economy growing strongly, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is unlikely to announce any rate cuts at its next monetary policy meeting, according to a State Bank of India (SBI) study.
According to the report, domestic economic conditions have the most influence on the central bank’s choices. With India’s economic growth probably exceeding its long-term potential output, the justification for retaining current interest rates is strong, and the RBI may decide to pause rather than cut rates.
“Local fundamentals are important and with growth rates that are higher than anticipated revenue, a case of pause exists” according to the document.

SBI assessment, the RBI may not follow interest rate changes in the U.S
According to the SBI assessment, the RBI may not follow interest rate changes in the United States. Instead, it is likely to take an autonomous stance depending on the changing internal economic situation. While global economic factors, particularly US interest rates, frequently influence financial markets, the RBI may prioritize local issues when determining its monetary policy position.
RBI may disassociate from future interest rate
“RBI may disassociate from prospective interest rate developments in the United States and may take autonomous opinions on local rates based on evolving situations” according to the announcement.
Furthermore, the analysis showed an essential link between credit and deposits in India’s banking sector. It stated that credit growth drives deposit growth, implying that a decrease in credit demand may lead to a decrease in deposits in the future. As a result, maintaining high credit growth is critical to ensuring that deposit growth does not falter.
This can only occur if India’s financial cycle continues active, as investments generate credit demand. Businesses and industries require loans to expand, which increases deposits as more money circulates through the banking system.
“Simply put, credit Granger-causes deposits, suggesting that a decline in credit will ultimately lead to a reduction in deposits,” according to the findings.
A strong investment cycle is consequently required to maintain healthy loan and deposit levels in the banking sector.
While some expected the RBI to decrease rates in response to worldwide events, the SBI research shows that strong domestic economy and the requirement for sustained credit growth may push the central bank to keep rates stable in the near term. The RBI looks to be focused on ensuring that India’s growth trajectory continues without being unduly impacted by global events.
