The Monetary Policy Committee on June 8 decided unanimously to keep the repo rate unchanged at 6.5 percent in its bi-monthly review, while continuing to keep a close vigil on the evolving inflation and growth outlook.

Five of the six-member committee voted in favour of maintaining withdrawal of accommodation stance to ensure that inflation progressively aligns with the target, while supporting growth.

The interest rate decision by MPC is on expected lines, though few experts were expecting a possibility of change in policy stance to neutral.

The MPC took note of the moderation in CPI headline inflation in March-April into the tolerance band, in line with projections, reflecting the combined impact of monetary tightening and supply augmenting measures.

Headline inflation is projected to decline in 2023-24 from its level in 2022-23 but would still be above the target, warranting continuous vigil, said the RBI, adding the progress of the south west monsoon is critical in this regard.

The central bank lowered its FY24 inflation projection to 5.1 percent from 5.2 percent earlier, and also to 4.6 percent from 5.1 percent for Q1FY24 and to 5.2 percent against 5.4 percent for Q2FY24.

“As the RBI expects inflation to remain within its target range for the rest of the fiscal year, and with growth faring reasonably well, we think the RBI will stay on hold through the rest of FY24,” Rahul Bajoria, MD and Head of EM Asia (ex-China) Economics at Barclays, said.

RBI governor Shaktikanta Das in his policy address emphasised the need to bring down the CPI inflation to its 4 percent target consistently, saying that inflation being within the tolerance band itself was “not good enough”, Rahul pointed out.

The cumulative rate hike of 250 basis points undertaken by the MPC is transmitting through the economy and its fuller impact should keep inflationary pressures contained in the coming months, the RBI said.

The central bank has maintained its current financial year growth projection at 6.5 percent, while expecting the real GDP growth for Q1FY24 at 8 percent and 6.5 percent for Q2FY24.

The market seems to have already reacted to the MPC move as the benchmark indices rallied sharply in previous session to hit the highest level of current calendar year. Today, the Nifty and Sensex turned volatile with trading in small range.

After the RBI policy decision, we collated 10 rate sensitive stocks that can deliver healthy double-digit return in the short-to-medium term from its closing price on June 7.

State Bank of India: Buy | LTP: Rs 589.20 | Stop-Loss: Rs 480 | Target: Rs 690-720 | Return: 22 percent

SBI has maintained a long-term upward trend, but recently it consolidated and formed a bearish Head and Shoulder pattern on the weekly chart. However, this pattern was invalidated after a pullback from Rs 490-500 levels.

Currently, the stock presents an entry opportunity for investors as it has undergone consolidation for a few weeks.

Investors can enter or hold this stock with a medium-term investment horizon, targeting a price range of Rs 690-720 in the next few months. It is advisable to maintain a stop-loss at Rs 480.

Larsen & Toubro: Buy | LTP: Rs 2,315.5 | Stop-Loss: Rs 2,050 | Target: Rs 2,600-2,675 | Return: 15.5 percent

Despite facing challenges from interest rate hikes, L&T, a major player in the infrastructure sector, has performed well and remains in a strong uptrend. While the stock has traded within a wide range recently, it shows promising signs for the future.

Technically, it is poised for a breakout above Rs 2,320-2,340 levels. Investors holding the stock can continue to do so, and those considering entry may do so at the current levels, with a medium-term perspective.

Godrej Properties: Buy | LTP: Rs 1,446.45 | Stop-Loss: Rs 1,355 | Target: Rs 1,520-1,660 | Return: 15 percent
