	''It's a kind of maintaining status quo in the present environment of pre-election period. I think Mr.Raghu Raman wants to observe the impact of election results before doing anything. But it may provide large funds available for political parties as more funds be available in the hands of public or market at prevailing interest rates. Anyway, let us watch what happens.''

He wants the mechanism to adjust itself and settle at some equitable point before doing anything."

A Comment on Cash Reserve Ratio and Inflation control

My reply to a comment by one reader on my comment regarding Cash Reserve Ratio with relation to inflation control published on Economic Times.com dated 16/12/2013 at 9:30 pm.


 "You must be aware that CRR is the reserve required to be kept by banks with RBI. So when the CRR is increased, banks require to keep more money with RBI. Thereby banks are left with lesser funds to lend to borrowers. When borrowers get less money from banks, they do not have enough money to spend. Ultimately, demand will be less as compared to same quantity of supplies. So inflation gets decreased. I think you must be clear now."

A Comment on CRR and Repo rates revision by RBI

My Comment on an article titled "Raghuram Rajan meets P.Chidambaram ahead of monetary policy review" published in Economic Times dated 16/12/2013 at 4:10 pm.  


"I think it is better to increase both CRR and repo rates by 50bps each this month itself to bring down available funds in market to lowest levels so that demand can decrease as against supply of goods. This can bring down the prices to some what extent."
