  15. Outlook  The significant volatility in the data over the past three months has made it difficult for the central banks & market participants to separate signal from noise. Hence central banks may refrain from committing themselves to a pre- determined path till a clear trend emerges  Monetary space for central banks on moderating inflation & growth from a very high base of 2022 and 2023  Barring a growth shock, central banks are expected to deliver largely “maintenance” or “tactical” rate cuts  The base case for 50-75 bps rate cuts in FY25 with inflation is expected to remain in a declining trajectory and average 4.5% approximately in FY25  Moderate duration products possibly provide the best risk-reward in a scenario of shallow rate cut cycle  The high real bond yields today present a suitable opportunity for patient investors to experience high accrual as well as the possibility of participating in capital gains as the rate cycle turns  Investors with a 6-12 months horizon can consider an allocation to low duration/ money market strategies given the considerable gap between overnight rate and money market rates (up to 12 months); Investors with more than 12 months investment horizon can consider allocation towards moderate duration (one-to-four year) categories 15
