Policy Rate Outlook Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) kept the repo rate unchanged at 6.25% in its latest meeting on 6 th April 2017. It has however narrowed the policy corridor from 50bps on either side of the repo rate to 25bps to now. Accordingly, the reverse repo 10.00 rate stands at 6% (5.75% before) and the rate under the marginal standing facility stands at 6.5% (6.75% before). 9.00 The narrowing of the corridor has been done in response to the 8.00 benign liquidity conditions which had led short-term rates to fall below the policy rate. The rate on the 3mth T-bill rate had fallen to 7.00 almost 50bps below the repo rate in March. The narrowing of the 6.00 band will increase the lower bound of the yield curve to 6% and also lower the volatility in short-term rates. 5.00 The central bank has indicated that going forward, it will continue to 4.00 use its existing bouquet of instruments (LAF, term repos, cash Jun-05 Feb-06 Oct-06 Jun-07 Feb-08 Oct-08 Jun-09 Feb-10 Oct-10 Jun-11 Feb-12 Oct-12 Jun-13 Feb-14 Oct-14 Jun-15 Feb-16 Oct-16 management bills, MSS) to manage the excess liquidity in the near-term. Repo Rate (mth end, %) Looking ahead, the RBI remains cautious on the inflation trajectory and believes that achieving the 4% mark will not be easy. Seemingly, the central bank remains wary of upside risks to inflation more even though it highlighted that risks are evenly balanced. On the other hand, it expects the growth to improve in FY18 on the back of government spending, higher consumer spending and transmission of earlier rate cuts. In our opinion, given the current outlook on inflation and growth, additional policy rate cuts are unlikely in 2017. Source: RBI, CSO, SBIFM Research
Debt Market Outlook Indian bond yields rose dramatically in February as RBI changed its monetary policy stance from accommodative to neutral and has continued to stay elevated there since. As of April end, 10 year G-sec yield stands at 6.87%, up 45bps from 6.41% in March. Massive foreign inflow during March and April (due to attractive valuations) also led to the increased 10.00 demand for Indian G-sec and consequent fall in yields. 9.00 Going forward, as US Fed is expected to hike rates and Indian 8.00 inflation is expected to inch up, this attractiveness will likely reduce. 7.00 6.00 Further, with surplus liquidity, no RBI OMO purchases and neutral 5.00 policy stance, the yield curve would remain steeper in the coming months. 4.00 Apr-09 Sep-09 Feb-10 Jul-10 Dec-10 May-11 Oct-11 Mar-12 Aug-12 Jan-13 Jun-13 Nov-13 Apr-14 Sep-14 Feb-15 Jul-15 Dec-15 May-16 Oct-16 Mar-17 For FY18 as a whole, supply-demand dynamics of the government bonds, liquidity situation of the banks once the pace 10 year GSec yield (mth end, %) Repo Rate (mth end, %) of currency withdrawal normalized, bank credit outlook and, global outlook will take prominence in guiding the bond markets trajectory. We remain constructive, but with a slightly longer term approach as average CPI settle lower and government’s measures to widen the tax base leads to structural improvement in the fiscal balance. Accordingly, we keep taking tactical calls in duration at the opportune time (like last two months) . Source: Bloomberg, SBIFM Research
