Mall – Executive Director, Reserve Bank of India Dr. Rajiv Ranjan – Executive Director, Reserve Bank of India Moderator: Shri Yogesh Dayal – Chief General Manager, Reserve Bank of India Yogesh Dayal: Good afternoon everyone. Hello and welcome to the First Policy of 2024-25. Today with us we have Governor, Shri Shaktikanta Das, Deputy Governors, Dr. M.D. Patra, Shri M. Rajeshwar Rao, Shri T. Rabi Sankar, Shri Swaminathan J., and two Executive Directors, Dr. O. P. Mall and Dr. Rajiv Ranjan. So, as is customary, I would request the Governor to make some opening remarks and then we will go for Q&A. Shaktikanta Das: Namaskar. I guess I will not be off the mark if I say that the policy overall is on expected lines. So, it demonstrates, I think, the Reserve Bank, the market participants, the market players and perhaps, the media and analysts and all, every stakeholder, thinking is at the moment, well aligned so far as Monetary Policy is concerned. But having said that, I just want to make five observations:

From fragile five to top five, the Indian economy is now enjoying a pedestal positioning. Growth is headed in the right direction, inflation is coming under check, the NPA cycle is weak, and fresh capital formation has started. The Reserve Bank of India Governor and his team have made the impossible look easy. The Indian financial system is now resilient despite all the shocks. But, are the problems of yesterday behind us or will they haunt us? What about global external shocks and the preparedness of the Indian financial system? To get all these answers, I have with me the man of the moment, Mr. Shaktikanta Das, Governor of the Reserve Bank of India.

Shaktikanta Das: India today deserves a very much more serious look because of all that is happening in India. The interest this time around in India is genuine. There is a lot of International confidence on the Indian growth story, on the technology story built around India, on the growth prospects of India, and the stability that is the macroeconomic and financial sector stability that India offers. So, my message if you see it in that sense is that we need to really step back and look at the business opportunities in India because this is the right time to get into the Indian business ecosystem.
