INDIA

 

INDIA, a Union of States, is a Sovereign Socialist Secular Democratic Republic with a Parliamentary System of government. It covers an area of 32872631 sq. km. Population, as on 1st March, 1991 (last counted) stood at 846.30 millions.

 

The value of total foreign trade increased to Rs.2,778,392.8 millions in 1997-98. During 1997-98, it’s total exports amounted to Rs.1,262,857.6 millions and imports increased to Rs.1,515,535.2 millions.

 

As on 20th April, 1999, Standard and Poor’s affirmed its ratings for India and said the country’s outlook was stable despite weak coalition governments. S&P affirmed its BB foreign currency and the BBB local currency ratings for India. The B foreign currency and A3 local currency short-term issuer credit ratings were also affirmed. The outlook is stable. Official foreign exchange reserves cover about 165 percent of total government, public sector and private sector external principal-repayment obligations due within the next 12 months. At $32.6 billion as on April 7, 1999, they mitigate the risk of a sudden loss of external confidence even as exports decelerate and the trade gap widens, the agency said.
