India’s money supply growth hits 17.3%: Why expert warns of inflation risks
A monetary policy development with market-wide reach.
· Business Today Mkts
Steve Hanke said India’s M3 money supply was growing at 17.3% annually, while its six-month annualised growth rate stood at 20.2% and the three-month annualised rate at 31.5%.
The analysis
Rate decisions ripple straight into banks, NBFCs and every rate-sensitive sector — from real estate to autos.
Because the driver here is macro rather than company-specific, the read-through is to index-level positioning rather than to any single name — correlations tend to rise when the whole market faces the same signal.
Market context
- This is a market-wide development — its reach goes beyond any single stock.
