INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit or CAD in April-June widened to 4.9 % of gross domestic product. High imports of gold and oil led to a worsening of the traqde deficit, resulting in CAD jumping to $ 21.8 billion to the latest quarter from $ 16.9 billion in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. The government aims to bring down CAD to 3.7 % or $ 70 billion, in 2013/14, from 4.8 % or $ 88.2 billion in 2012/13.

 

The finance ministry has started preparations for Budget 2014/15. With general elections scheduled to be held by May next year, there will only be an interim budget. The new government will present the fiscal Budget.

 

The Supreme Court has barred clinical trials for new drugs till a monitoring mechanism is put in place to protect the lives of people on which the drugs are tested.

 

Mumbai has been named the world’s second most honest city according to a survey on 15 cities worldwide by Readers’ Digest magazine. Finnish capital Helsinki bagged the top spot for the world’s most honest city while Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, proved to be the least honest.  The survey put hundreds of people to test in four continents to find out just how honest they were by dropping wallets and seeing how many would be returned.

 

3.7 % Growth of the core sector in August, a seven month high. This takes the overall growth in April-August this year to 2.3 % compared with 6.3 % in the corresponding period next financial year.

 

$19 million Estimated average spending by companies across the globe including India, on social media this year, according to a global study by information technology major Tata Consultancy Services. This will rise to $ 24 million in 2015.

 

Rising inflation, fewer employment avenues and dwindling earnings are taking a toll on the spending capacity in India. Over 72 % respondents from middle and lower middle income families would be forced to slash their Diwali expenditure by 40 % and on average spend nearly 25 % of their monthly salary on Diwali, according to a survey by Assochem.
