Quote on MPC rate hike announcement from Dr. V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services

"The dominant theme in economic and market discussions these days is India’s resilience and outperformance in a weakening global economy and bearish equity markets. The RBI governor’s comments today is a reaffirmation of this ‘India resilient’ theme. It was this positive commentary on India’s growth impulses and projection of 7% GDP growth with 6.7% inflation for FY 23 that has come as a positive even while the policy announcements relating to rates were on totally expected lines. The Governor's confident statement that CAD can be financed comfortably even with crude at $100 for the rest of the year is reassuring. In brief the positive commentary is market positive."
