Calls Rise for Rate Cut

There are increasing calls for the Reserve Bank of India to issue a cut in interest rates. With the drop in oil prices having given a temporary respite on inflation, many industry leaders feel that the time is right for RBI to provide a boost to economic momentum by cutting interest rates:

It could also more strongly herald the start of a steeper growth trajectory for the country.
