  • cleaning bank balance sheets needs logical conclusion
  • slower credit off-take not due to high interest rates
  • Indian mon pol has been too tight
  • credit slowdown can't be fixed by just cutting rates

Rajan resigned amidst on-going differences of opinion with his govt on interest rates.

Reuters have this on his succession.
