In this episode of How India’s Economy Works, host Puja Mehra speaks with economist and Professor of Economics at SRM University, Dr. Parag Waknis to unpack one of the most important yet least understood documents in Indian policymaking, the RBI’s accounts. They explore how the RBI manages government debt, why it holds government securities on its balance sheet, and how these operations influence GDP, liquidity, interest rates and inflation.
The conversation examines the evolution from direct deficit financing to the current system of primary dealers, the significance of foreign exchange reserves, and the RBI’s use of tools such as open market operations and Operation Twist. Dr. Waknis also explains the relationship between government borrowing and central bank profits, and discusses whether these dynamics affect the RBI’s policy independence.
Tune in for insights into the institution at the heart of India’s monetary and financial system.
