Market Mantra (Nifty Fut/Bank Nifty Fut/USDINR/SPX-500): 20/11/2018

The Indian market (Nifty Fut) slips Tuesday on subdued global cues and the concern of RBI autonomy. The Indian market (Nifty Fut/India-50) closed around 10775 Monday, surged by almost +0.83% on positive Asian cues, lower USD, lower oil and hopes of RBI truce with the government coupled with a survey that BJP will win almost 300 seats alone in the forthcoming general election. The market was already discounted that the RBI governor will not resign after his meeting with the PM and FM last week.

So far Nifty rallied almost +3.63% in November after a plunge of almost -11.40% in October and September on higher USD, higher oil, negative global cues, NBFC/HFC liquidity crisis (default-ILF&S), hawkish RBI and “war of words” between the RBI and the Indian government.

All eyes were on the RBI board meeting on Monday. After almost 9-hours of marathon meeting, it seems that although there may be a truce, for the time being, RBI blinks first and as per the government directive and will increase liquidity (cash flow) in the system. Some of the regulatory power of RBI/MPC will be shared by government appointees BFS (Board for Financial Supervision) or simply by the RBI board. This raises a serious question of central bank independence (autonomy) and RBI/MPC may now function like a corporate board rather than an independent institution, free of political interference.

The government basically wants the RBI to take an “accommodative” stance in lieu of “calibrated tightening” in this global era of dual QT and in the process has entered into an elite membership of some countries, which are now actively interfering in central bank’s monetary policy (Argentina, Turkey and the US/Trump). The Indian government is now “desperate” to kick-start lending to the MSME sector in a big way ahead of the election, which could cause a big surge in NPA/NPL in the years ahead as a result of such political populism. The government is also eyeing the RBI surplus to fund its fiscal deficit, a plan which may be unheard before in the history of central banks.
