Stock Market Live Update: HDFC Bank Review on RBI Policy April 2025
The MPC delivered a 25bps rate cut today bringing down the repo rate to 6%. Moreover, the change
in stance from neutral to accommodative (as we had expected) is a decisive signal from the RBI that
further rate cuts are in the offing. The overall tone of the policy statement was dovish with a clear
emphasis on supporting growth amidst rising global headwinds.
We expect two more rate cuts in 2025 with the policy rate expected at 5.5% (earlier expectation of
5.75-5.5% range), with the next rate cut likely to be delivered in the June policy. That said, the tilt
for the future policy rate trajectory is now shifting from “short and shallow” to a deeper rate cut
cycle if global trade tensions continue to escalate. The sub-4% inflation projections for the next three
quarters provide ample space for the RBI to cut rates, even below 5.5%, if required.

TCS Q4 Earnings Preview Amid Trump's Tariffs
The imposition of a 26 percent tariff on Indian goods, as highlighted by analysts, has sparked concerns about a potential recession and a slowdown in North American markets. This region is particularly significant for TCS, contributing to almost half of its revenue.
With the introduction of Trump's tariffs, TCS is set to announce its quarterly and annual earnings, marking the first such disclosure by a major IT services company since the new tariffs came into effect. This move has raised apprehensions about the impact on the company's financial performance, given its substantial revenue stream from North America.
The escalating tariff war initiated by Trump has led to widespread fear of an economic downturn. This is especially concerning for companies like TCS, for whom the North American market is a major source of income, accounting for nearly 50 percent of its revenue.
