Daga comments on RBI rate hike probability and US Federal Reserve outlook
What happened
Daga stated that a rate hike by the Reserve Bank of India in December cannot be entirely ruled out, following recent CPI inflation data. He noted that while falling crude oil prices reduce the probability of aggressive monetary tightening, sustained moderation in food and core inflation is necessary before the Reserve Bank of India becomes more accommodative. Daga also suggested that a 25-basis-point rate hike by the US Federal Reserve in December appears increasingly likely.

Why it matters
The commentary addresses key drivers of Indian financial markets, including the outlook for Foreign Institutional Investor flows into India. Daga noted that the outlook for these flows is improving, supported by attractive valuations and moderating crude prices, though cumulative flows for the fiscal year remain negative.
The Reserve Bank of India's interest rate decisions influence asset class strategy, often in response to inflation trends.
