    “The healthy growth momentum and the already easing money market rates may prompt the RBI to take incremental steps in policy easing, reducing the likelihood of a larger rate cut in this meeting,” CareEdge said in the report.

    The report further added, “We anticipate the policy statement to strike a dovish tone while remaining cautious about evolving global developments.”

    The report cites the ease in retail inflation, saying that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in April fell to 3.2 per cent, marking a six-year low. (ANI)
