The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will continue to use cash reserve ratio (CRR) as its monetary policy tool and transmission is not very effective if only rates are used, a deputy governor said on Wednesday.
Subir Gokarn also said the Reserve Bank prefers to act in small steps, non-disruptively.
The central bank on Tuesday raised key interest rates by 25 basis points and said further rises were likely as it moves to return monetary policy towards pre-crisis settings and battles near double-digit inflation.
