Central University of South Bihar: Assignment of Money and Banking
The money supply of a country consists of currency (banknotes and coins) and,
depending on the particular definition used, one or more types of bank money
(the balances held in checking accounts, savings accounts, and other types of
bank accounts). Bank money, which consists only of records (mostly
computerized in modern banking), forms by far the largest part of broad
money in developed countries.
Narrow money (m1)
Narrow Money (M1) is a concept of money supply that consists of base money and
the most liquid form of deposits in the banks and post offices.
Narrow Money (M1) = Currency with the Public + Demand Deposits with the
Banking System + ‘Other’ Deposits with RBI
= Currency with the Public + Current Deposits with the Banking System +
Demand Liabilities Portion of Savings Deposits with the Banking System +
‘Other’ Deposits with RBI
Growth rate of Narrow Money=( current Yr. M1- Base Yr. M1/Base Yr. M1)*100
At any point of time, the money held with the public has two most liquid
components
Currency Component: This consists of all the coins and notes in the
circulation
Demand Deposit Component: Demand Deposit component is the money
of the general public with the banks, which can be withdrawn by them
using cheques, withdrawals and ATMs.
The above two components i.e. currency component and demand deposit
component of the public money is called Narrow Money and is denoted by the
RBI as M1. Thus, M1 = Currency with the public + Demand Deposits of public in
Banks. When a third component viz. Post office Savings Deposits is also added
to M1, it becomes M2.

According to data which shown Comparison of narrow money since1990-91 and 2003-
04
Now, with the more money and with the more liquidity resources in hand, the
will would definitely demand more of goods and services. If the supply of goods and
services does not increase proportionately, there is bound to be and upward pressure
on prices, we call this as inflationary pressure.
Since we know narrow money is the appropriate measure . It does not use the
term money for assets other than currency. In above chart we see that there
are certain important changes in their behaviour. During 1970- 1978 Indian
was not healthy which is due to continuously Decrease In percentage of
circulation of narrow money.
Conclusion
But RBI having leamt from the funds with non-banking financial company
which was to be extending of 3, 27,150 Crores by the end of March 1997 or over 50
per cent of the total time deposits with the organized banking system. Therefore it is
necessary that deposit of the general public Non-Banking Financial Companies
(NBFCS) should be included in M3 at the end of March 1998 public deposits with
NBFCS amounted to Rs. 23,820 Crores, in march 1990-00 decreased to 20,430
Crores, Rs. 19,430 at the end march 2000.
Table shows the figure 1990-01 - 20003-04 in which foreign exchange assets
of the banking sector setup increase by three times (1990-01 - 1997-98 the major
sources) foreign exchange assets increased to forty times (1990-91 - 2003-04 and that
amount from 10,580 Crores to 5,26,850 Crores).
Broad Money(M3)
Narrow money is the most liquid part of the money supply because the
demand deposits can be withdrawn anytime during the banking hours. Time
deposits on the other hand have a fixed maturity period and hence cannot be
withdrawn before expiry of this period. When we add the time despots into
the narrow money, we get the broad money, which is denoted by M3.
We note here that the Broad money does not include the interbank deposits
such as deposits of banks with RBI or other banks. At the same time, time
deposits of public with all banks including the cooperative banks are included
in the Broad Money.
Currently, Narrow Money (M1) and Broad Money (M3) are relevant indicators
of money supply in India. The RBI in all its policy documents, monthly Bulletins
and other documents shows these aggregates.

Conclusion
The other name of the Reserve Money is “High Powered Money” and also
“Monetary Base”. Reserve Money is all the Cash in the economy and denoted
by M0. This has the following components:
Here we should know that Cash Reserves are also of two types viz. Required
Reserves (RR) and Excess Reserves (ER). RR are those reserves which the banks
are statutorily required to keep with the RBI. At present the Banks are required
to keep 4.25% CRR (Cash Reserve Ratio) of their total time and demand
liabilities. All reserves excess of RR are called Excess Reserves. ER are held with
the Banks while RR is held with RBI. Banks hold the ER to meet their currency
drains i.e. withdrawal of currency by depositors.

Now we will individually discuss about the Reserve money. RM is also referred
to in the literature on the subject as monetary base, primary money or
government money. As per given figure 1clearly reveals that there arecertain
noticeable changes in their behaviour. Currency with the public constitutes the
major share in RM. Though it has risen continuously at relatively high rate. The
relative share of reserve money declined year over year as per given figure.
Other deposits, with RBI constitute less than 1% of total RM. Its effect is stable
and more over its relative share in RM is so low that for practical purposes we
can even ignore it. During seventies, the Indian economy experienced serious
inflationary pressure, which can be attributed largely to enormous credit
expansion by the commercial banks. The monetary authority, with a view to
reduce the pressure of inflation, has 5 resorted to frequent changes in the cash
reserve ratio [CRR]. During 1970-71 to 1975-76, it was between 3 to 5 per cent
of total demand and time liabilities of commercial banks. From 1976 to 1980, it
remained at 6 per cent. Since July 1981 onwards, it has been raised from time
to time, so by 1984, the CRR went up to 9%. It was further raised to 10 and
then 11 per cent in 1987 and 1988 and finally touched 15% level by 1990. This
has resulted in higher share of bank deposits with RBI. As summuraize of given
data, Reserve money was 19,450 crore in 1980-81. It increased to 87,870 crore
in 2010-11. The annual growth of Reserve money since 1980 to 81 was ;
During 1981-91 16%
This annual growth of reserve money in India is indeed high, showing the
possibility of rapid deposit multiplication. But the interesting point is the
remarkable transformation in the factor driving reserve money growth.
Throughout 1990s, net RBI credit to the central government was the driving
force behind the expansion of money.
Conclusion
The trend line of growth rate of the reserve money is upward sloped and its
value varies from 5 to 15
MAJOR MONETARY POLICY RATES AND RESERVE REQUIREMENTS - BANK RATE, LAF
(REPO, REVERSE REPO & MSF) RATES, CRR & SLR
A high CRR implies less money to lend, thus contraction in money supply and A
high CRR implies less money to lend, thus contraction in money supply.
CRR - Cash Reserve Ratio is the proportion of total deposits that the
banks are required to maintain with the RBI has reserves. By
changing this ratio RBI can influence the amount of cash that is
available for the banks to lend. A high CRR implies less money to
lend, thus contraction in money supply. A high CRR implies less
money to lend, thus contraction in money supply. Thus, expanding
the money supply.
Analysis
According to data the highest cash reserve Ratio (CRR) is 11 % in 29
April, 1998. The lowest value of CRR is 2% in 1935.
Open Market Operation - It is the sale/purchase of the government
bonds and securities in the market to adjust the rupee liquidity. For
example, when RBI sells government bonds/securities, people buy
them against money (say cash) this leads to a contraction in money
supply as money moves from public to RBI. In case of purchases,
money supply expands.
Repo Rate - It is the rate at which the central bank (RBI) lends
money to commercial banks. If RBI increases this repo rate, it
becomes costlier for the commercial banks to borrow money from
RBI. They are left with lesser amount of money to lend to the
general public. Thus the money supply contracts. A low repo rate
helps commercial bank avail loans at cheaper prices, thus expanding
the money supply.
Bank Rate - When banks want to borrow long term funds from RBI,
it is the interest rate which RBI charges from them. Current Bank
rate is 7% w e f from June 2016. The bank rate is not used to control
money supply these days although it provides the basis of arriving at
lending and deposit rates. However, if a bank fails to keep SLR or
CRR then RBI will impose penalty & it will be 300 basis points above
bank rate.
Analysis
Bank Rate was 3.50% in July 5,1935 and reduced to 3 % in
28/11/1935. This reduction entails to increase in money Supply.
Again Bank rate change takes place in 15/07/1951. It was then
3.5%. Highest bank rate was 12% in the year 1991 and remain same
for long period
