Ans – (a)
Explanation:-
Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR): It refers to the minimum percentage of net demand and time liabilities, to be kept by commercial banks with the central bank. A change in CRR affects the ability of commercial banks to create credit.
For instance, an increase in CRR reduces the excess reserves of commercial banks and limits their credit-creating power.
