THE RESERVE BANK of India's 50 bps cut in the cash reserve ratio to 4.25%, implemented in two phases, may not significantly impact liquidity, as outflows from advance tax payments and goods and services tax are expected to maintain tight conditions.
While the first phase of the cut kicked in on Saturday, things are already looking tough, said market participants. Consequently, the call rates and the tri-party repo rate (TREPS) shot up to 6.80%-6.90% on Monday, which is above the marginal standing facility (MSF) of 6.75%. Earlier, they were in a range of 6.30% to 6.50%, that is, they were at or below the repo rate, which is considered to be the comfortable band for the central bank.
