RBI CUTS CRR, SENSEX HITS MONTHS HIGH

RBI CUTS CRR:
Rbi has brought down CRR BY 50 basis points to 4.50%. It will inject Rs 17000 crores in the market and will bring down home loan auto loan rates. This move was necessary due the lack of capital flowing in the economy which is hurting our growth.
According to the RBI's credit policy, the inflationary pressure at WPI and retail levels is still strong and the primary policy aim is to contain inflation. 

"RBI believes that inflation momentum remains fairly strong. It would want to wait for these measures to sustain and translate into productivity gains before unequivocally favoring monetary easing," said an Emkay Global Financial Services report.
