RBI Preview :: 'RBI can be the first one to stop hiking them'

We believe that RBI will go slow with the rate hikes now since inflation is at 5.72% below the upper tolerance limit of 6%. The US Fed has also slowed its pace of interest rate hikes with a 25 bps hike recently. With a benign outlook on global inflation central banks across the world have now reduced their pace of rate hikes. RBI was amongst the first central banks to hike interest rate to tame inflation can probably be the first one to stop hiking them too. We believe that RBI will hike rates by another 25 bps in February meeting. This will push the rates to a seven year high of 6.5%. RBI will go with a wait and watch approach after this meeting and slowly shift focus on growth.
