INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
N E W S
As per the latest IMF study, the total weigh of emerging markets in the GDP
of the world on a purchasing power parity basis has seen a sizeable shift. It
highlights how as against 51 % in 2005, the emerging economies now account for
close to 56 % of the global purchasing power GDP as per the latest survey. And
with the emerging economies growing at a faster rate than their developed
counterparts, there are every possibility that the their share goes up further
in the coming years. China may surpass the US over the next few years.
Politics and economics are very intricately connected. They tend to
influence each other in ways that could be very complex and far-reaching. The
prospects of the India’s economy have been seriously compromised due to
political corruption. High inflation, poor standard of living are to a great
extent a result of rampant corruption in the country. China on the other hand,
seems to be facing diametrically opposite challenge. American hedge fund
manager Jim Chanos has been keenly following the political and economic
development in the dragon economy and has figured out something that is quite
worrying. He is of the view that the Chinese economy could be heading toward
trouble on account of new Chinese President Xi Jingping’s very aggressive
anti-corruption drive. Chanos believes tat many things such as apartment sales,
luxury products, etc. were largely bought with dirty money. And it is now
beginning to impact consumption. This may indeed be bad news for an economy
that is struggling to transition from an investment-driven export-oriented
economy to a domestic consumption-driven economy.
A study published by Firstpost has revealed that asset classes like real
estate and equities were the biggest beneficiaries of the liberalization
policies. A firm called Ciane Analytics studied returns from assets
including equities, gold, fixed deposits, G-Secs and real estate since 1991.
Real estate outperformed every other asset classes during the 23-year period
with an annualized return of 20 % ! Equities came in second with annualized
return of 15.5 % ! However, while these returns may seem mouthwatering, the
fact is that the return from equities adjusted for inflation came down to just
7.1 %.

AND ANALYSIS:
Outlook:
The overall scenario for Chemical Industry is expected on upward scale to peg a fairly good upward trend in the near future. High volatility on account of inconsistent pricing of raw material and also the fluctuating exchange rates have become the main challenges that the Chemical industry need to overcome in the year ahead. In order to sustain and increase its market share along with better margins, the Company envisages to achieve the same by via flexible sourcing and enhanced distribution network.
The Company expects to nurture the Chemical Division on the export front along with the Trading Division which is largely export oriented. The Company expects to continue its strategy of seeking niche markets, broad customer base yielding higher margins with moderate volume growth. The global metal industry to which the Company’s Trading Division caters to has been experiencing a reasonable growth rates over the last few quarters in terms of capacity addition wherein the existing demand there from is expected to be fairly resilient. The Company also envisages expansion of the existing capacity by modifying idle capacity resulting addition of new products in the existing bucket.
