reserve bank of indias monetary policy committee highlights
The MPC considered the escalating global situation caused by the Ukraine conflict. The resulting supply chain disruptions, according to RBI governor Shaktikanta Das, have resulted in “globalization of inflation.”
The committee voted to lift annual inflation projections in the United States to 6.7 percent from 5.7 percent before. Inflation is expected to continue over the Reserve Bank of India’s maximum tolerance level of 6% this fiscal year.
RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das said in a statement,
“Inflationary pressures have become broad-based and remain largely driven by adverse supply shocks. There are growing signs of a higher pass-through of input costs to selling prices.
The MPC noted that inflation is likely to remain above the upper tolerance band of 6 per cent through the first three quarters of 2022-23.”
The Reserve Bank of India hikes interest rates by 50 basis points. The MPC of the RBI convened on June 6 and 8 and unanimously decided to raise the policy repo rate by 50 basis points to 4.90 percent, effective immediately.
The central bank recognized that, based on recent measurements, inflation has become more widespread and has infiltrated significant goods.
The RBI boosted inflation predictions for FY 2023 to 6.7 percent, citing the ‘globalization of inflation,’ particularly as a result of the supply chain issue.
The MPC of the Reserve Bank of India maintained its 7.2 percent growth forecast for FY 2023.
The central bank considered better domestic circumstances as well as unstable external situations when making its estimates, but opted to leave them unchanged.
According to Shaktikanta Das, global conditions are difficult for India and other big economies. But despite the pandemic and the aftermaths from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, India’s domestic situation is improving at a rapid pace.
Aside from the monetary policy announcements, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das made a slew of other announcements.
