CareEdge Research Report

The credit growth had been muted from February 2020 to July 2021 due to the Covid-19 outbreak and deleveraging of balance sheet by large corporates. As a part of policy support, Reserve Bank of India had reduced policy rates in the earlier part of the pandemic and consequently, interest rates in the banking system have generally trended lower.

However, the interest rate transmission has been uneven with public sector banks passing the rate cuts quicker than the private banks.

The credit offtake seems to have improved recently as business activities are picking up and corporates are showing interest for re-leveraging. Credit growth has been buttressed by retail and micro, small and medium enterprise loans.

The lending rates on outstanding loans has continued to dip, but the lending rate on fresh loans has increased indicating that the rates have bottomed out.

Further despite the month-on-month dip in deposit rates, the banks are starting to bump up deposit rates.
