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.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

 

In the last decade, the Telecom Sector significantly contributed to social economic development of the country and also attained the stature of a dynamic parameter in measuring growth in Indian economic scenario. Being the Second largest telecom network of the world, impact of the telecom sector, its growth and significance in nation’s economy play a pivotal role. Gradual shifting of service delivery in e-mode by the Government and other players had turned the sector as key player in most of the sectors. Emergence of the telecom sector as key development catalyst, the services assuming importance as the last mile in e-service delivery programmes demand active leverage of the sector to derive maximum mileage. In the above scenario, Low rural teledensity and low penetration of internet in the country pose a strong business case for the ICT Sector to chase growth.

 

MAJOR REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS/CHALLENGES

 

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), keeping in view the healthy growth of the sector, has issued various regulations in the previous year. Entry of more advanced technologies and shifting of consumer’s focus from wired-line to wireless technology have already resulted in a huge user base. Further technological advancements and offerings in the ICT Sector foresee greater degree of convergence. For taking maximum mileage of the advancement of technologies for nation’s growth, optimum utilization of the available spectrum will be required. Therefore, coming days foresee completer e-farming of the spectrum and new policies for optimum pricing and utilization of the spectrum including sharing of spectrum.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Urge of the consumer for accessing various services such as Stock market data, Health, Education related and Entertainment has gradually shifted the focus to wireless segment; thus, the demand for M-VAS applications and service will grow manifold. Country is already witnessing a steady growth of on-line business transactions. Technological advancements will further push the demand and growth of internet/broadband segment in the coming years. With broadband penetration, the market is expected to grow further, especially in rural areas, where teledensity and broadband penetration is low. Thus, a strong growth story is waiting to happen in the telecom sector, which will benefit the BSNL also.
