Transmission of repo rate to banks' deposit and lending rates seems to be better in an interest rate easing cycle than in the monetary tightening period, data put out by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in its latest monthly bulletin shows.

Transmission of rates better in easing cycle

In the easing cycle, which lasted between February 2019 and March 2022, the benchmark repo rate was cut by 250 basis points (bps). Consequently, banks cut their median term deposit rates or card rates by 208 bps. Similarly, the weighted average domestic term deposit rates (WADTR) of banks reduced by 188 bps during that period.

On the lending side, while the one-year median marginal cost of funds-based lending rate (MCLR) was cut by 155 bps, the weighted average lending rate (WALR) on fresh rupee loans and outstanding rupee loans of banks decreased by 232 bps and 150 bps, respectively.
