Uday Kotak Expects RBI to Raise Repo Rate Further Amid Inflation and Market Dynamics
Uday Kotak, founder of Kotak Mahindra Bank, expects the Reserve Bank of India to raise the policy repo rate by another 50-75 basis points amid ongoing inflation and external pressures. While crude oil prices have recently fallen, easing some inflation concerns, domestic food inflation and the need to maintain positive real rates support further hikes. Kotak highlighted India's exposure to foreign portfolio investments and noted potential benefits if overvalued AI-led global companies correct, possibly leading to reverse capital flows into India.
