Reserve Requirements are of 2 types: 1. Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) refers to that portion of total deposits of commercial banks that it has to keep with the reserve bank of india as cash reserves. 2. Statutory Liquidity Requirements (SLR) refers to that portion of the total deposits of a commercial bank which it has to keep with itself in the form of liquid assets.
Reverse Repo Rate: The rate at which the Central Bank borrows money from the banks (or banks lend money to the CB) is termed the reverse repo rate. The CB uses this tool when it feels there is too much money floating in the banking system.

Prime Lending Rate (PLR): The rate at which the commercial banks lend money to their regular clients with high credit worthiness. This particular class borrows huge amounts of money and hence, there is lot of fluctuation in the monetary supply even with small changes in the PLR. It is one of the only rates controlled by the commercial banks. The below shows the lending rates given by the commercial banks in the last 10 years.

QUALITATIVE METHODS
Regulation of Consumer Credit: It is an important instrument of selective credit control which aims at regulating the consumer instalment credit on higher purchase. Finance is the method of using bank credit by consumers to buy expensive durable goods like motor cars, houses, computer, etc. A certain percentage of the price of the durable goods paid by the consumers as the cash down payment in the remaining portion is financed by the bank.

Marginal Requirement: Its one of the most important instruments. The commercial banks give loans to their customers against some securities, however, they do not give loans equivalent to the full amount of the security, but of an amount which is less than its value. This difference between the value of the security and the amount of loan granted is known as marginal requirements.
If marginal requirements is 10%
Higher the rate less is the money supply and vice versa. Thus, money supply can be regulated by increasing or decreasing the marginal requirement.
Credit Rationing: It aims at limiting the maximum or ceiling of total amount of bank loans and advances by fixing the maximum limit of loans for specific purposes. It may take place in two forms: i. The central bank may fix maximum amount of loans and advances for every member bank, ii. The central bank may also fix the maximum ratio of loans of a commercial bank towards total assets. Direct Action: It refers to various directives issued by the central bank from time to time so as to regulate their lending and investment activities. This policy may not be used against all banks but against erring banks. These direct actions may take the form of refusal of discounting facilities, refusal of loans, charging of penal rate of interest, etc.

Reserve Requirements: It can be implemented by requiring banks to hold a higher portion of their total assets in reserve. By doing so, the central bank reduces the availability of loanable funds. This acts as a reduction in the money supply. Interest Rates: In this method, the nominal interest rates are increased. By raising the interest rate, a monetary authority can contract the money supply, because higher interest rates encourage savings and discourage lending.

Reserve Requirements: It can be implemented by requiring banks to hold a lower portion of their total assets in reserve. By doing so, the central bank increases the availability of loanable funds. This acts as a increase in the money supply. Interest Rates: In this method, the nominal interest rates are decreased. By lowering the interest rate, a monetary authority can expand the money supply, because lower interest rates discourage savings and encourage lending. How does monetary policy affect the real economy? Expansionary monetary policy should not be confused with an increase in economic output in the real economy. Any change to the real economy resulting from an expansionary monetary policy is subject to time lags and effects from other economic variables; in addition, there are possible side effects of expansion, including inflation.

In a low interest-rate environment, shares become a more attractive buy, raising households financial assets. This may also contribute to higher consumer spending, and makes companies investment projects more attractive. Lower interest rates also tend to cause currencies to depreciate: Demand for domestic goods rises when imported goods become more expensive. All of these factors raise output and employment as well as investment and consumer spending.
However, this stepped-up demand may cause prices and wages to rise if goods and labor markets are fully utilized.

Interest rate channel: An expansion of the money supply by the central bank feeds through to a reduction of short-term market rates through this channel. As a result, the real interest rate and capital costs decline, raising investment. Additionally, consumers save less and opt for current consumption over future consumption. This, in turn, causes demand to strengthen. However, this stepped-up demand may cause prices and wages to rise if goods and labor markets are fully utilized.

Credit channel: Central banks monetary policy decisions influence commercial banks refinancing costs; banks are inclined to pass the changes on to their customers. If financing costs diminish, investment and consumer spending rise, contributing to an acceleration of growth and inflation.

Exchange rate channel: Expansionary monetary policy affects exchange rates because deposits denominated in domestic currency become less attractive than deposits denominated in foreign currencies when interest rates are cut. As a consequence, the value of deposits denominated in domestic currency declines relative to that of foreign currency-denominated deposits and the currency depreciates. This depreciation makes domestic goods cheaper than imported goods, causing demand for domestic goods to expand and aggregate output to augment. Wealth channel: Monetary policy impulses are also transmitted through the price of assets such as stocks and real estate. The expansionary monetary policy effects of lower interest rates make bonds less attractive than stocks and result in increased demand for stocks, which bids up stock prices. Conversely, interest rate reductions make it cheaper to finance housing, causing real estate prices to go up.
