Mumbai, April 22 : Amid rising criticisms about RBI's stance of maintaining a status quo on repo rates while the inflation is going up, HDFC Vice-Chairman and CEO Keki Mistry on Friday said that the apex bank is not behind the curve and that 2-3 rate hikes are possible during the year. Speaking at the Times Network's India Economic Conclave, Mistry opined that there is no need for India to do what the US Fed is doing in terms of increasing the rates. "I truly don't believe that we are behind the curve in terms of rates. I believe that there would be rate hikes during the course of the year, maybe 2-3 rate hikes are very much possible. But I don't see that impacting the economy and I certainly don't see the need for India to do what the US Fed is talking of doing and be so sharp in the terms of rate hikes," he added. The comments come at a time when the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been criticised for being behind the curve in tackling the inflation risk emanating from global geo-political tensions.
