Highlights of the interview –

• In July, OPEC & its allies have agreed to increase oil production by 1 million barrels per day. Hence, this should reduce the fears of further increase in crude prices. India being net importer of crude, it is a very important number as any increase in oil prices leads to increase in inflation and widening current account deficit – which is not good for a stable macro-economic environment.
