INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

N E W S

 

The economy grew 4.7 %in 2013/14, marking a second straight year of sub-5 % growth – the worst slowdown in more than a quarter of a century. The data was below an official estimate of 4.9 % annual growth and compared with 4.5 % in the last fiscal year. However, the current account deficit narrowed sharply to $ 32.4 billion at 1.7 % of gross domestic product, in 2013/14 from a record high of $ 98.8 billion or 4.7 %, the year before. A sharp fall in gold imports due to restrictions on overseas purchases and muted import of capital goods helped shrink the current account deficit.

The company raised $ 210 million from Russian Investment firm DST Global which has also invested in companies like Facebook, Twitter and Alibaba Group.

 

General Motors will start exporting vehicles from its Talegaon plant near Pune in the second half of 2014. GM was one of the few global carmakers that was using its India plant only for the domestic market.

Infosys lost another heavy weight when B G Srinivas, a board member put in his papers. He is the third CEO-hopeful to quit after Chairman N R Narayana Murthy’s return to the company – Ashok Vemuri and V Balakrishnan being the other two. While Vemuri went on to lead IGate, Balakrishnan joined politics.

 

Naresh Goyal – promoted Jet Airways posted biggest quarterly loss – Rs 2153.37 crore – in the three months ended March 31, mainly because it has been offering discounts to passengers to fill planes.

 

William S Pinckney – Chairman and CEO of Amway India was arrested by the Andhra Pradesh Police in connection with a complaint against the direct selling firm. This is the second time that he has been taken into custody. A year, ago the Kerala Police had arrested Pinckney and two company directors on charges of financial irregularities.

 

China has told its state-owned enterprises to sever links with American consulting firms after the United States charged five Chinese military officers wih hacking US companies. China’s action which targets consultancies like McKinsey & Co. and the Boston Consulting Group, sterns from fears that the first are providing trade secrets to the US governments.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW

 

The fiscal year ended 31st March 2014 proved to be a challenging year with the Indian economy witnessing sustained slowdown across sectors. While the economic growth for the year is expected to have marginally improved to 4.9% from the lows of 4.5% witnessed in 2012-13, it is still a far cry from the above 8% growths witnessed during most part of 2004 to 2011. The recovery in 2013-14 is largely on the back of revival in agriculture growth due to a steady monsoon. However, recovery in the other areas of the economy appears to be feeble with no clear signs of recovery. Industry continued to be in the midst of a slowdown. This was inspite of a push from the Government to clear the hurdles plaguing infrastructure sector projects as this has clearly not resulted in any action on the ground level. On the demand side, the consumption growth remained weak amid elevated inflation and subdued income growth.

 

The first half of the year also saw the Rupee in a free fall under pressure from the worsening deficits, current account deficit as well as the fiscal deficit. Coupled with fears of large fund outflows due to the expected Fed tapering, the Rupee breached the ` 68 level to the US Dollar in August, 2013. A slew of measures taken by RBI and the Central Government saw the current account situation improving significantly which helped the Rupee to recover from its all-time lows during the later part of the year. The elevated levels of inflation since 2010- 11 continued to be a cause of concern for the economy and although the inflation levels eased off over the last quarter of the year, the stickiness in inflation did not provide much room for RBI to lower the interest rates and prime pump the economy.

 

Considering the overall sluggish environment, the domestic paint demand was comparatively resilient although not as good as expected. Demand from the rural areas was relatively better than the urban markets. While, the retail demand was encouraging, the industrial market remained stagnant. Lack of public spending in infrastructure sector and weak private sector investments affected the industrial product demand. Commodity prices remained stable during the year with crude trading in a very narrow range throughout the year. However, sharp volatility in the Rupee affected the overall procurement prices. In the international markets, the environment was equally challenging with some of the markets feeling the continued impact of politica.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The macroeconomic environment has shown offshoots of recovery, specifically in the second half of 2013-14. Most of the indicators in the developed markets point to growth stability,

 

Which in turn should support the developing and emerging markets. Even in India, there are signs that the growth has bottomed out with the marginal improvement recorded in the later half of 2013-14. Going forward, the key to a sustainable recovery would be reviving the investments especially in the private sector through continued efforts to clear the stalled projects. It would be interesting to watch out for the key policy actions from the new Central Government as this would be crucial for reviving the critical growth drivers in the economy. A matter of concern on the horizon is the latest set of reports on possibility of increased chances of weak ‘El Nino conditions’ in India leading to deficient rainfall. This could consequently pose a downward risk to the agricultural output and thereby impact the recovery. In the international markets, political stability would be crucial for recovery in some of the key markets where the Company operates.

 

As always, the Company looks forward to do well in the year ahead and is optimistic of its abilities to address the set of opportunities and challenges that the coming year will present.
