The bank anticipates that the RBI may go for another XX bps rate cut in August, bringing the repo rate down to 5.25%. This move is largely backed by cooling inflation, especially in the rural sector, and a continued neutral policy stance from the central bank. Here’s why this matters: ✅ Inflation is surprising on the downside — ICICI projects FY26 inflation at just 2.9%, far below the RBI’s earlier XXX% estimate. ✅ Urban demand is weak, while rural resilience offers some support. Export growth remains patchy, with the US recovering but other regions still sluggish. ✅ The window for rate cuts is short — inflation could rise again in Q4 due to base effects and global volatility (oil prices, US tariffs), so August may be the last chance for easing. ✅ With a neutral stance, the RBI has the flexibility to act now before global headwinds tighten financial conditions again. 🔍 A cut in August could give a much-needed boost to credit growth, reduce borrowing costs, and help revive investment sentiment. But this also signals that growth concerns are real, and proactive monetary support is necessary. 📊 Smart investors and businesses should keep an eye on this development — it could be a turning point for the Indian financial cycle. Let’s see if the RBI takes the cue!
