Abstract
The success of the interest rate channel depends upon the size and speed with which retail interest rates respond to changes in policy or money market interest rates. This study estimates the dynamic elasticities of the pass-through of the official monetary policy rate to the money market and retail interest rates in India and examines whether the speed and magnitudes of the pass-through have changed following introduction of the Liquidity Adjustment Facility in 2000. The results show that the speed of adjustment is highest for call rates and lowest for 364-day Treasury Bill yield. The pass-through elasticities with respect to call rate show marginal improvement in the case of deposit and lending rates and worsening in the case of Treasury Bills.
