The Money Printer
How much they're bringing in, how much they're absorbing
Already printed · the year to 31 July 2026
—
Past tense. This is what the system created over the twelve months the RBI's return covers — already done, already in someone's account.
How to read this: these are the RBI's own printed figures as of 31 Jul 2026 (WSS as read in class, 23 Aug 2026) — stocks on a stated date, not a live feed. Money does not arrive at a per-second rate: it arrives in lumps — a CRR tranche on one date, an OMO auction on another, loans booked by banks and reported only every fortnight. Any "per second" figure here is a year's total divided by time: useful for grasping scale, useless as a description of the mechanism. The session notes walk through every number.
Money ÷ GDP · the only dial that matters
The machine itself
—
Where the money went
The tap and the sponge
Every operation with a date, an amount and a source — injections (+) against absorptions (−). Filtered by the range above. Read the total as durable-liquidity impact, not as money created: a CRR cut frees reserves that already existed, an OMO purchase creates new central-bank money, and a buy-sell swap creates rupees with a reversal already booked (the January 2026 swap unwinds in 2029). Adding them gives you the scale of the policy impulse, not a quantity of money. The ≈ entries are order-of-magnitude, awaiting reconciliation with the April deep-research note.
"Once a month at least, have a look at these numbers."
