Global financial services provider JPMorgan has said India's liquidity is expected to go into its normal state of deficit from current surplus.

The government would cut spending to meet fiscal deficit target, JPMorgan said, adding that it would also build back its cash balances.

A report by the financial services major on Thursday said the government's deficit would preclude any large open market operation sale.

JPMorgan said the overnight call will thus trade at close to repo rate.
