Delaying cuts will lead to more growth sacrifice; RBI must deliver 0.25 pc reduction in Feb review

Live Mint  

Mumbai, Jan 14 The RBI must start a rate cut cycle with a 0.25 per cent reduction in key rates at the next policy review in February, a German brokerage said on Tuesday. Delaying rate cuts will only lead to more sacrifice on growth, analysts at Deutsche Bank said, adding that the RBI also risks falling behind the curve if the action is delayed. "We expect the RBI to cut the policy rate by 0.25 per cent each in February and April monetary, bringing the repo rate down to 6 per cent in H12025," they said. The analysts said they forecast forecast CPI inflation to average about 4.3 per cent in January-June 2025, lower than the RBI's forecast.
