INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces
of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial
deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on
foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to
accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since
1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern
agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of
services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but
services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half
of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has
capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major
exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the
Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large
part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in
real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently
high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High
international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy
expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current
account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to
corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term
growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low
dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing
integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that
it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate
physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment
opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and
accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

DIAMOND INDUSTRY –
INDIA
-
From time immemorial, India is well known in the world
as the birthplace for diamonds. It is difficult to trace the origin of
diamonds but history says that in the remote past, diamonds were mined only in
India. Diamond production in India can be traced back to almost 8th
Century B.C. India, in fact, remained undisputed leader till 18th
Century when Brazilian fields were discovered in 1725 followed by emergence of
S. Africa, Russia and Australia.
-
The achievement of the Indian diamond industry was
possible only due to combination of the manufacturing skills of the Indian
workforce and the untiring and unflagging efforts of the Indian diamantaires,
supported by progressive Government policies.
-
The area of study of family owned diamond businesses
derives its importance from the huge conglomerate of family run organizations
which operate in the diamond industry since many generations.
-
Some of the basic traits of family run business
enterprises include spirit of entrepreneurship, mutual trust lowers transaction
costs, small, nimble and quick to react, information as a source of advantage
and philanthropy.
-
Family owned diamond businesses need to improve on
many fronts including higher standard of corporate governance, long-term
performance – focused strategies, modern management and technology.
-
The diamond jewellery industry in India today may be
more than Rs 60000 millions and is rated amongst the fastest growing in the
world. Indi ranks third in the world in domestic diamond consumption.
-
Utmost caution is to be exercised while dealing with
some medium and large diamond traders which are usually engaged in fictitious
import – export, inter-company transactions, financially assisted by banks. In
the process, several public sector banks lost several hundred million rupees.
They mostly diverted borrowed money for diamond business into real estate and
capital markets.
-
Excerpts from Times of India dated 30th
October 2010 is as under –
DIAMOND SAGA – DIRTY DOZEN STUCK
WITH 2K CR DEBT
-
This could be the biggest credibility crisis the
Indian diamond industry has ever faced. Fifteen banks run the risk of losing Rs
20000.000 millions lent to a dozen diamond firms in Surat. Until about two
months ago, they had not repaid these dues. Bankers believe many
diamantaires borrowed money during the economic downturn two years ago and
diverted funds to businesses like real estate and capital markets. Many of
themselves made money from these businesses but their diamond companies have
gone sick and declared insolvency.
-
Most of the money borrowed from the banks in the name
of their diamond business has been diverted in real estate and the share
market. The banks are not in a position to seize their properties because in many
cases, these were purchased in the name of their relatives and friends.
