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.

GLOBAL ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The global economic environment, which has been tenuous at best throughout the year, turned sharply adverse in September 2011 owing to the turmoil in the euro-zone, and questions about the outlook on the US economy provoked by rating agencies. The developments over the last year in major economies of the world have not been encouraging. Though the Indian economy may not be as adversely impacted, it will not be immune to the external environment and will likely see some challenges as well. There is an apprehension that the process of global economic recovery that began after the financial crisis of the 2008 is beginning to stall and the sovereign debt crisis in the euro-zone area may persist for a while. The global economy is expected to grow by 3.3 per cent in

2012 compared to 3.8 per cent in 2011 as per the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) January 2012 update of the World Economic Outlook (WEO).

 

INDIA ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Managing growth and price stability were the major challenges of macroeconomic policymaking. In 2011-12, India found itself in the heart of these conflicting demands. The Indian economy was estimated to grow by 6.9 per cent in 2011-12, after having grown at the rate of 8.4 per cent in each of the two preceding years indicating a slowdown (as per the Economic Survey February 2012 report). At the same time, sight must not be lost of the fact that, by any cross-country comparison, India remains among the front-runners. With agriculture and services continuing to perform well, India’s slowdown can be attributed almost entirely to weakening industrial growth. The manufacturing sector grew by 2.7 per cent and 0.4 per cent in the second and third quarters of 2011-12. Inflation as measured by the wholesale price index (WPI) was high during most of the current fiscal year, though by the year’s end there was a clear improvement. Food inflation, in particular, has come down to around zero, with most of the remaining WPI inflation being driven by non-food manufacturing products. Monetary policy was tightened by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) during the year to control inflation and curb inflationary expectations. The slowing inflation reflects the lag effect of actions taken by the RBI and the government. Reflecting the weak manufacturing activity and rising costs, revenues of the centre have remained less than anticipated; and, with higher than budgeted expenditure outgo, a slippage is expected on the fiscal side.

 

Growth in India is moderating more than was expected earlier. The baseline projection of GDP growth for 2011-12 has been revised downward to 6.9% on the basis of the macro-economic situation prevailing (as per the Economic Survey February 2012 report). It is likely to be below potential during 2011-12, but is expected to recover at a modest pace in 2012-13. The slack in investment due to delay in implementation of key policies and reforms may keep the pace of recovery low. Inflation has started to fall, broadly in line with the projected trajectory. Nonetheless, price pressures remain, with risks emanating from depreciation of the rupee by over 16% in 2011, accelerating prices of imported goods and services and rising fiscal deficit.

 

INDUSTRY- CHALLENGES AND OUTLOOK

 

Industrial-sector growth during the current financial year is expected to be between 4 and 5 per cent. At this rate, the annual growth would be less than the annual growth rates achieved in the recent past and far below the potential growth rate. The challenge in the short term would, therefore, be to shore up business sentiment, spur investment in productive activities, and identify bottlenecks that can be removed in a reasonably short period of time. The government has already made some quick moves to clear bottlenecks in some critical sectors such as coal and power and is also pushing forward project implementation in some key infrastructure sectors. With the easing of headline inflation, moderation in commodities prices in the international market, and revival of manufacturing performance in recent months in the major economies, India’s industrial sector is expected to rebound during the next financial year
