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 %.

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 & 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.
