1 ICICI PRUDENTIAL MUTUAL FUND Impact Analysis 20 th September, 2013 RBI s Mid-Quarter Monetary Policy Review: September 2013 Key Measures Repo rate hiked by 25 bps to 7.50%, reverse repo hiked to 6.50% Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) unchanged at 4.00% Eased Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) recalibrated to 200 bps above the Repo rate and reduced to 9.50% from 10.25% Bank rate reduced to 9.50% (recalibrated to 200 bps above Repo rate) Repo Rate Hiked In a surprise move, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) hiked its key interest rate viz., the Repo rate by 25 bps or 0.25% to 7.5% at its policy review held on September 20, This is the first hike by the central bank since October 2011 after having cut the repo rate four times (by a total of 125 bps) between April 2012 and May The rise in Repo rate has come in the wake of rise in inflation in the economy. Headline inflation measured by the wholesale price index (WPI) has risen for the third consecutive month to 6.1% in August, 2013 primarily due to a sharp rise in food prices. The central bank s assessment is that in the absence of an appropriate policy response, the WPI inflation will be higher than what was initially projected over the rest of the year. Cut in MSF rate Since mid-july, the Reserve Bank has put in place a number of exceptional measures to tighten liquidity with a view to dampening volatility in the foreign exchange market. These measures have raised the effective policy rate for monetary policy operations to per cent, aligned to the re-calibrated MSF rate. In line with improvement in the external environment, the central bank MSF rate by 75 bps from 10.25% to 9.5% with immediate effect, in part the exceptional monetary tightening measures carried out by it since mid-july. The central bank also reduced the minimum daily maintenance of the CRR from 99% of the requirement to 95% effective from the fortnight beginning September 21, 2013, but kept the CRR unchanged at 4.0%. Despite initiating partial roll back of the liquidity tightening measures, the RBI made it clear that the timing and direction of further actions on exceptional measures will be contingent upon exchange market stability. RBI also stated that further change in the minimum daily maintenance of the CRR was not contemplated. RBI s rationale for policy action Repo rate hike o To anchor inflation and inflation expectations
2 o To normalise the conduct and operations of the monetary policy so as to allow the liquidity adjustment facility (LAF) repo rate to resume its role as the operational policy interest rate Cut in MSF Rate o Exceptional liquidity tightening measures (since Mid-July) to be eased in a calibrated manner in line with the improvement in the external environment RBI s outlook Domestic growth has weakened with continuing sluggishness in industrial activity and services. However, the RBI expects some pick-up in growth on account of better prospects for agriculture due to kharif output and the upturn in exports. Also, as infrastructure investments are expedited, and as projects cleared by the Cabinet Committee on Investment come on stream, growth could pick up in the second half of the year. WPI inflation, which had eased in Q1 of , has started rising again as the passthrough of fuel price increases has been compounded by the sharp depreciation of the rupee and rising international commodity prices. Current assessment shows that in the absence of an appropriate policy response, WPI inflation will be higher than initially projected over the rest of the year. Current high retail inflation (consumer price index) is fuelling the view that inflation is likely to remain at elevated levels and erode consumer and business confidence. Concerns about funding the CAD, amplified by capital outflows due to anticipated tapering of asset purchases by the US Federal Reserve, has increased volatility in the foreign exchange market. RBI s Guidance The RBI will closely and continuously monitor the evolving growth-inflation dynamics with a readiness to act pre-emptively, as necessary. The policy stance and measures set out in the review will begin the process of cautious unwinding of exceptional measures, which will restore normalcy to financial flows. The central bank also intends to address inflationary pressures to provide a stable nominal anchor for the economy, thereby mitigating exchange market pressures and creating an environment conducive for the revitalisation of sustainable growth. Our Outlook We expect the WPI to average at 5.5% 6% through the financial year which is relatively higher than the earlier RBI projection. The announcement by the US Federal Reserve on September 18, 2013 about the postponement of QE3 (quantitative easing) withdrawal may aid the rupee in the near term. This has given RBI some leg room to partly reverse the extra liquidity tightening measures, which were undertaken to stem the volatility in the rupee. As the uncertainty about the timing and speed of withdrawal of QE3 and its
3 impact on rupee remains, liquidity tightening measures initiated in July, 2013 were not fully reversed. We believe that RBI may have to look towards monetary easing as growth continues to weaken on industrial activity and services. The consumption in rural India which was holding till now has also started deteriorating and both the durables & non-durables have been impacted adversely. We believe, as the situation continues to improve on currency and external environment, RBI may come back towards easing monetary policy to support growth.
