Banking stocks score high after RBI hints rate cut

05 Jun 2012 Evaluate

Spurred by the optimism of rate cut, banking stocks are trading in jubilant mood for second straight session, after Reserve Bank of India’s deputy central bank governor, Subir Gokarn, stated that there was ‘elbow room' to cut interest rates to boost the country’s waning growth. The official’s comments came days after India became the latest emerging market to see its once buoyant growth witnessed a sharp slowdown, igniting fears that the country could face an economic crisis. India's gross domestic product in the first three months of this year grew 5.3 per cent - the slowest rate in almost a decade.
