INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The worst is over for India’s economy with gross domestic product likely to expand 5 %to 5.5 % this year and more than 6 % in 2015, according to Moody’s Analytics. Concerns over the rupee and current account deficit are under control, said the agency. Ratings firm Crisil has forecast 6 % growth for 2014/15 up from the estimated 4.8 % for 2013/14.  Total economic growth, infrastructure bottlenecks and lack of transparency and consistency in foreign direct investment policies seem to have taken a toll on India’s attractiveness as an investment destination, says an Ernst & Young survey.  Projects with FDI component fell 16.4 % across the globe in 2012 from the previous year.  The drop in India was steeper at 21 %. State run carrier Air India is doling out free tickets to its 24000 employees, even as it expects to incur a loss of Rs 39000 mn this financial year and has a debt of Rs 350000 mn. 550000 number of jobs generated across India in 2013, a fall of 0.4 % as compared to with a year earlier. The National Capital Region has a one-fourth share in total jobs created, according to a study by industry lobby group Assochem, Banks, real estate, automobile and telecommunications sectors are showing a rise of job creation. $ 805 mn investments by venture capital firms in India during 2013, registering a drop of about 18 % over the previous year. The Information Technology and IT-Enabled Services Industry retained its status as the favourable venture capital investors in 2013. Pakistan has temporarily banned gold imports for the second time in six months, as it tries to stem smuggling into India. India’s import duty on gold is 10 % and curbs on purchases have dried up legal imports into what used to be the world’s biggest bullion buyers. The World Gold Council puts the amount smuggled into India at upto 200 tonnes in 2013. The Reserve Bank of India has proposed that unclaimed bank deposits estimated to be about Rs 35000 mn be used for education and awareness among depositors.  According to the plan, deposits that have not been claimed for at least 10 years will be transferred to the scheme.

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.

-            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 –

 

-            Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council in its statistical data has shown the export of polished diamonds to have increase by 28% in February 2013. Compared to $ 1.4 bn worth of polished diamond export in February, 2012, India exported $ 1.84 billion worth of polished diamonds in February 2013. A senior executive of GJEPC said, “Export of cut and polished diamonds started falling month-wise after the imposition of 2 % of import duty on the polished diamonds. But February, 2013 has given a new ray of hope to the industry as the export of polished diamonds has actually increased by 28%. It means the industry is on the track of recovery and round tripping of diamonds has stopped completely.” Demand has started coming from the US, the UK, Japan and China. India’s polished diamond export is expected to cross $ 21 bn in 2013-14.

 

-            The banking sector has started exercising restraint while following prudent risk management norms when lending money to gems and jewellery sector. This follows the implementation of Basel III accord – a global voluntary regulatory standard on bank capital adequacy, stress testing and market liquidity.
