MUMBAI – Vishal Goenka, co-founder of IndiaBonds.com, said the following on the Reserve Bank of India's fifth bi-monthly monetary policy statement for 2025-26 (Apr-Mar) detailed on Friday:
Given the recent inflation prints and the lack of transmission of lower interest rates in the banking sector, the RBI repo rate cut by 25 bps is timely. Interestingly, the forward expectations of inflation have come much lower, opening the door for another rate cut if required before the end of the financial year. The idea is to make funding cheaper for governments and corporates, and the Rs. 1 lakh crore (INR 1 trillion) OMO (open market operation) purchases announcement should assist in boosting liquidity and flattening the yield curve. Following this, investors should look to lock in current high rates from corporates in the two-three year segment and complement this by buying long-end government bonds for potential gains. End
