Falling inflation will provide the RBI with the necessary flexibility to prioritize growth concerns. Looking ahead, we expect the RBI MPC to cut policy rate by another 25bps in its April meeting. However, the MPC is likely to maintain its neutral stance amidst global uncertainty. With food inflation moderating and core inflation under control, the RBI could overlook concerns around imported inflation in midst of the global trade war.
