MARKET AND ECONOMIC SCENARIO

 

Indias gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 7.6% in the last fiscal (April 2015- March 2016), powered by an improvement in farm output (after two consecutive years of low growth), an improvement in electricity generation and mining production in the fourth quarter of the fiscal. The economic growth is estimated between at 7.3% and 7.6% during the current fiscal 2016-2017, trimmed down by 0.2% points only on account of growing global uncertainties. The growth numbers for the last fiscal, which reinforces Indias position as the worlds fastest-growing large economy, came on the back of a strong 7.9% growth in the last quarter (Jan-Mar 2016) of the last quarter of the financial year 2015-2016.

 

The passage of the Constitutional Amendment Bill for the GST marks a historic point in India's reforms journey, and this will open up several opportunities for business, once fully and successfully implemented. Meanwhile, the central government has implemented and is in the process of pushing through several key policy measures which are poised to boost investment and resultant job creation in the coming months and the years.

 

The economic growth, especially in the industrial sector, remains relatively subdued while consumption is strong and is likely to remain so through the rest of 2016. The impact of previously enacted policy measures to ease the operating environment for business is beginning to show through in the form of a surge in the completion rate of investment projects.

 

Overall, by most estimates, the Indian economy is poised for a sustainable growth (GDP growth band of 7.5% to 8.5%) over the next few years, on the back of compelling growth drivers and reforms, despite global headwinds. This is seen achievable on account of several measures and initiatives of the government, including large public spend on infrastructure creation (power, roads, highways, railways, ports, dedicated freight corridors, inland water ways), education and skills development, easing rural stress and improving rural infrastructure and ushering in banking reforms and public health.
