India’s Current Account Deficit Contracted Whereas Fiscal Deficit Widened in August, 2019 //pt.knoema.com/nusxurc/india-s-current-account-deficit-contracted-whereas-fiscal-deficit-widened-in-august-2019 2024-01-29T05:26:45Z Nematullah Khan pt.knoema.com://pt.knoema.com/user/1975840
India’s Current Account Deficit Contracted Whereas Fiscal Deficit Widened in August, 2019

India’s current account deficit (CAD) was $14.3 billion or 2 percent of GDP in Q1 FY19-20 compared to US$ 15.8 billion (2.3 percent of GDP) in Q1 FY18-19. The contraction of CAD was primarily on account of high invisible receipts of US$ 31.9 billion in Q1 FY19-20 as compared to US$ 29.9 billion in FY18-19. Key performance of BOP components (BPM6):    Current Account:Private transfer receipts, an indicator of remittances by Indians employed overseas, rose US$19.9 billion (6.2 percent Y-o-Y) in Q1 FY19-20 from US$ 18.6 billion in Q1 FY18-19.Net services receipts rose US$ 20.03 billion in Q1 FY 19-20 (7.3 percent on Y-o-Y) from US$ 18.68 billion in Q1 FY18-19 due to the rise in net earnings from travel, information technology and financial services.     Financial Account:Portfolio investment which recorded net inflow of US$ 4.8 billion in Q1 FY19-20 compared to outflow of US$ 8.1 billion in Q4 FY18-19.Net foreign direct investment rose 45 percent on Y-o-Y to US$ 13.9 billion in Q1 FY19-20 from US$ 9.6 billion Q1 FY18-19.Net inflow on external commercial borrowings stood at US$ 6.3 billion in Q1 FY19-20 compared to outflow of US$ 1.5 billion in Q4 FY18-19.Foreign exchange reserves (on BOP basis) rose US$ 13.98 billion in Q1 FY19-20 compared to depletion of US$ 11.33 billion in Q1 FY18-19. The contraction in CAD has both external and domestic factors. On external front, lower crude oil prices which averaged US$ 56 per barrel in 2019 compared to US$ 65 per barrel in 2018 was an important factor. On domestic front, India's economy slowed down in Q1 FY19-20 dragged down by major factors such as weaker private consumption, slower consumer demand and slow increase in fixed investment. As a result, imports grew slower than exports which helped to improve CAD. Moreover, government of India (GOI) has taken number of steps to boost capital inflows and curb nonessential imports. Some of the major steps are as follow:Eased the regulatory and compliance framework for foreign portfolio investors (FPI).Allowed manufacturing units to access external commercial borrowings up to US$ 50 million for a minimum maturity of one year.Raised import tariffs on washing machines, refrigerators, tyres, aviation turbine fuel (ATF) and etc.

COVID-19 Cases Surges in India

Most of COVID-19 cases in India are of people who had a travel history from infected countries such as China, Iran, US and Italy. There is no community transmission of COVID-19 as per Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR). "As per research in China, it was found that COVID-19 might have originated due to mutation in bats. Bats might have transmitted it to pangolins and from pangolins it got transmitted to humans", according to ICMR.   As India entered into second phase phase of lock down that going to stretch till 3rd May, the total number of COVID-19 cases reached to 11933 with 1118 new cases within one day.

India Overtakes China as the Most Populous Country in 2023

(January 2022) According to the 2022 UN World Population Prospects India is expected to overtake China as the most populous country in 2023.The birth rate in China was reduced by strict family-planning rules—the so-called one-child policy introduced in 1980. The easing of birth control since 2013 have not changed the downward demographic trend. Today the population of China is declining. Number of working age population (15-64-year olds) is not growing since 2015 and will start to decline after 2027. By 2050 China’s population will be 8% smaller than it is now.The expected decline in working age population threatens to end China’s role as the world’s factory. With the declining working age population the cost of labor force will start to increase making labor intensive manufacturing industries unprofitable. Simultaneously the increase in old age population will put additional burden on government finance in china to support non-working age population.Population of India continues to grow. According to the UN estimates It is expected to peak at 1.7 billion in 2064, when it will be nearly 50% larger than that of China. India working-age population will increase by 136 million people between now and 2050.

India Battles to Clean Up Bad Loans That Threaten Its Financial Stability

India is not only the third largest economy in the world, but of the top 10 largest economies globally, it has the third highest share of bad loans, too. India's non-performing loans represent 10 percent of total bank loans and about $210 billion of outstanding debt. Since 2008 when attention shifted globally to financial stability and the role of the banking sector, the share of non-performing loans in India has grown by 7.5 percent and is expected to worsen in the coming years, according to the Central Bank of India.To preempt a major national banking crisis, New Delhi is striving to clean up stressed debt with the help of resolution professionals and independent asset management companies.Some investors will view the anticipated sale of a large volume of India's distressed assets as a niche investment opportunity in this large economy, an opportunity worth upwards of $10 billion to the Indian economy during the next year, according to local financial press.

India's CoronaCrisis in 3 Charts

(14 May 2020)  While the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths in India is low compared to the United States and Western Europe, the coronavirus lockdown in India that started on March 25, 2020, has had a powerfully negative effect on India's economy, according to the latest publicly available data.The India Services Purchasing Managers Index fell to 5.4 in April, a sharp decline from 49.3 in March. Figures less than 50 indicate are broadly considered to indicate contraction in business activity.Based on industry data sources, India's car market reportedly flatlined to zero sales in April.According to a report from the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy, India's unemployment rate increased to 23.5% in April compared to 8.7% in March. Within that figure are 27 million workers aged 20 to 30 years old, an unsettling statistic for any economy.

Bank's Non-food Credit Grows 6.8pc in September 2021

(3rd November 2021) Non-food credit from banks accelerated 6.8% YoY in September 2021, mainly driven by credit to medium sized industries, gold lending and Personal loans.Credit to medium industries registered a robust growth of 49% in September 2021 as compared to 17.5 per cent last year. This was largely due to the packages announced by the government of India (GoI) and the RBI to meet the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Credit to micro and small industries accelerated to 9.7% in September 2021 from a moderate contraction of 0.1% a year ago at the same time.Personal loan registered the credit growth of 12.1% in September as compared to 8.4% in the previous year due to growth in housing loan (9%), Credit card (9.5%), Vehicle loans (8.9%) and loans against gold jewellery (59.1%).

India: WPI Inflation Eases to 12.07% in June, 2021

(20th July 2021) India's wholesale inflation (WPI) eased marginally to 12.07% YoY in June from a record high of 12.9% in previous month as fuel and food witnessed slight softening in prices. Food inflation grew 3.1% YoY in June as compared to 4.3% in the previous month, while fuel and power inflation eased to 32.8% from 37.6% despite recent increase in petrol, diesel and cooking gas prices.Manufactured products inflation ticked up 10.9% from 10.8% in May led by textiles, apparel, leather. However, WPI inflation remained in double digit for third consecutive month in June and would have spillover impact on retail inflation in coming months.   Consumer price index (CPI) , also known as retail inflation, marginally reduced to 6.26% YoY in June from 6.3% in previous month as food prices hardened coupled with fuel prices.Food inflation inched to 5.2% from 5% in May.Inflation in oil and fats grew 34.8% in June from 30.8% in previous month. Fuel and light inflation stood at 12.7% compared to 11.9% last month. However, the inflation remained above RBI's monetary policy committee (MPC) targeting range of 4% (+/-2). Given the devastating impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the economy, the MPC is expected to maintain policy rate unchanged.

India: Output of Eight Core Industries contracted in August 2019

(15 October 2019), India’s infrastructure sector, which comprises core eight industries, contracted 0.5 percent Y-o-Y in August 2019 compared to growth of 4.7 percent in August 2018. The contraction was mainly due to the decline in the five industries: Coal (8.6 percent), crude oil (5.4 percent), natural gas (3.9 percent), cement (4.9 percent), and electricity (2.9 percent). However, refinery products, fertiliser and steel production grew 2.6 percent, 2.9 percent and 5 percent respectively.   This was the first contraction since April 2015, reflecting weakness in the economy. However, government of India and RBI have taken some measures such as cut in corporate tax rate and policy rate to spur investments and revive the economy. These measures will help to revive these core sectors in the coming months.

India: Violent Crimes on the Decline

Over the last four years (2016-2019), the violent crime rate in India has decreased from to 33.7 to 31.2 per lakh* population, however, this improvement masks critical disparities by type of crime and among Indian states.In 2019, total crime in India decreased by 2.4 percent, supported by reduced rioting (-20%) and dacoity (banditry) and arson cases (-9%). Crime against infants, including infanticide and foeticide, are on the rise, increasing 30 percent and 7 percent, respectively, in 2019 over the previous year.Among Indian states, Assam had the highest violent crime rate in 2019 at 83.4 per lakh population. Kidnaping, grievous hurt, attempted murder, rioting, and rape accounted for more than 70 percent of violent crimes in India. * Lakh is a unit in the Indian numbering system equal to 100,000.

Medium Term Expenditure Framework, India

Medium Term Expenditure Framework, India - 2013         Medium-term Expenditure Framework Statement laid before Parliament as required under the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management Act, 2003. Section 3 of the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management (FRBM) Act, 2003 require the Government to place three Statements in both Houses of Parliament. This section has been amended to require the Government to lay a fourth statement viz. the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) in both Houses of Parliament, immediately following the session of the Parliament in which the budget has been presented.         The MTEF is to set forth a three-year rolling target for the expenditure indicators with specification of underlying assumptions and risks involved. The MTEF is essentially expected to be a vertical expansion of the expenditure projections in the MTEF Statement. The objecive of the MTEF is to provide closer integration between budget and the FRBM Statements. It also furthers the Government’s comitment towards fiscal consolidation.

India: Record 23.9% Economic Contraction in Q1 FY2021

(5 September 2020) As India struggles to bring the COVID-19 outbreak under control, including through the use ofstringent lockdownmeasures, the economy is collapsing. During the first quarter of what is India's 2021* financial year, the economy recorded -23.9 percent YoY growth, the worst performance since 1996 when the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation of India started reporting quarterly data. India’s GDP growth was also the worst among the world’s major economies last quarter, which in Q2 2020 ranged from -21.7 percent YoY in the United Kingdom to 3.2 percent YoY in China,  according to the OECD. On the demand side, private spending, which accounts more than half of India's GDP and is considered the economy's growth engine, decreased by 26.7 percent, reflecting significant demand shock for discretionary items.Figures were equally dismal for investment and trade. Investment demand, reflected by gross fixed capital formation, declined by 47.1 percent while exports contracted 19.8 percent and imports 40 percent as domestic demand decelerated faster than global demand.   Prospects for Economic Stimulus A mix of monetary and fiscal measures announced by the Government of India, a major share of which is liquidity support and government guarantees, has fallen short of its goals to stimulate private consumption and investment domestically. Given low goods and services tax revenue collection and the fiscal deficit target increasing to 103 percent in July FY20-21 (compared to 77.8% in July FY19-20), the GOI is unlikely to push any further big fiscal stimulus package in the coming quarter.   Note: The financial year (FY) in India begins on April 1 and ends on March 31.

India’s Industrial Output Contracts 16.6% in June

(15 August 2020) India’s industrial output, measured by index of industrial production (IIP), contracted by 16.6% yoy in June compared to the decline of 34% in May, the fourth successive month of contraction. However, the contraction was at slower pace on the back of modest recovery in manufacturing that contributes around 78% in the IIP.Manufacturing sector contracted 17.1% in June, lower than the 38.4% in May. Mining fell by 19.8% in June against drop of 20.5% in May.Electricity generation declined 10% in June as compared to 14.9% (down) in May Among the use-based categories, only consumer non-durables moved from negative territory to positive with sharp growth of 14% YoY in June as compared to decline of 11.1% in May. The sharp jump in the non-durables likely driven by restoring of inventories that were exhausted during the stringent lockdown months.

India: June Delivers First Merchandise Trade Surplus in 18 Years

(17 July 2020) In June, India registered its first merchandise trade surplus in nearly two decades as the COVID-19 outbreak hit the domestic demand harder than external demand. The June surplus of US$790 million was the culmination of months of falling trade figures amid border tensions between India and China and slowing global demand. Exports declined 12.4% to US$21.9 billion in June compared to decline of 36.5% in May, led by falling exports of gems and jewelry (-50.1%) petroleum products (-31.6%), textiles (-34.8%), and engineering goods (-7.5%).Imports contracted sharply by 47.6% to US$21.1 billion in June after contracting 51.1% in May, with imports of gold (-77.4%), petroleum products (-55.3%), and electronic goods (-34.1%) leading the downward trend. On the domestic front, national and regional level coronavirus lockdowns, government policies towards import substitutions, and an uncertain employment scenario will likely put more pressure on imports in the months ahead.

(14 June 2020)Cases of COVID-19 globally are closing in on 8 million with an uptick reported out of Latin America, led by Brazil, as well as India, indicating that the global pandemic is far from over. One quarter of cases worldwide—more than 2 million infections—are in the United States, although the fastest growing outbreak is in Brazil, which accounts around 11 percent of total cases. India and Russia account for roughly 4 percent and 7 percent, respectively. Latin American countries like Peru (2.9%), Mexico (1.8%), and Chile (2.2%) are reporting a rising number of confirmed cases as well. During the last week, India—the world’s most populous country—has reported an exponential increase in new cases at an average of roughly 11,000 per day. India now joins the United States, Russia, and Brazil in terms of total confirmed COVID-19 infections. India opened the economy on 8 June despite no signs that the infection curve was flattening.  Note: Referenced figures are as of 14 June 2020.

India: Consumer Confidence Collapsed Under COVID-19 Induced Lockdown

(9 June 2020)The Consumer Confidence Index (CSI) of India touched a historic low of 63.7 in May, a far cry from the 85.6 reported just two months ago, according to survey data from the Central Bank of India. The one-year lookahead captured by the Future Expectations Index (FEI) also fell sharply to 97.9 from 115.2 in March.According to the survey, 74.4 percent of consumers felt that India's general economic situation worsened; 14.4 percent of respondents felt it improved. Sentiment toward employment was similar with 67.4 percent of the respondents feeling that employment conditions had deteriorated. Looking ahead, roughly half of the respondents felt that general economic conditions would worsen.As per consumer perception on employment,  felt that the current perception on employment against 19.2 felt improvement.  Note: In view of the COVID-19 pandemic, the CSI conducted the survey through telephonic interviews during the period May 5-17, 2020, for 13 major cities: Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Bhopal, Chennai, Delhi, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai, Patna, and Thiruvananthapuram.

(2 June 2020)In India, confirmed COVID-19 cases reached 198,706 and deaths 5,598 as of 2 June 2020, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, India. The fatality rate due to COVID-19 stands at 2.82%, one of the lowest in the world. India is the 7th worst hit country by the COVID-19 pandemic after the United States, Brazil, Russia, the United Kingdom, Spain and Italy, according to the World Health Organization.   So far the virus is largely confined to four states that make up 66 percent of all cases: Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Delhi and Gujrat. Maharashtra continues to be the worst affected state with 70,013 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 2,362 deaths. Most of the multi-national corporations are based in these states. In addition, Maharashtra has the highest GDP among the states and Mumbai is considered the financial capital of India, hosting both the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). Delhi of course is the capital of India, and Gujrat is one of the highest economic growth sources nationwide. Note: All figures are as of 2 June 2020.

India: Industrial Production Contracted 16.7% in March Under COVID-19 Pressure

(18 May 2020)  India’s industrial production, measured by the index of industrial production (IIP), contracted 16.7% YoY in March after expanding 4.6% in February, a symptom of the lockdown to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Given that the lockdown was initiated in late March, April figures will likely be worse and affect nearly all industries, with the potential exceptions of food and pharma.Data released 2.5 weeks earlier by India's Office of the Economic Adviser for core infrastructure industries, which represent about 40% of the IIP index, had previewed this decline of industrial production. Core industries contracted 6.5% in March.

India’s manufacturing gains and Services sector lose momentum

India’s manufacturing PMI ticked up to 52.7 in May from 51.7 in April 2019 strongest recovery in the last three months. Improvement in the manufacturing activity in May compared to the previous  month provided a silver lining after an earlier reported GDP growth for Q4, FY2018-19 showed lowest rate in the last five years. The growth in the index has been supported by revival in new orders. The revival suggests that growth in employment and sales components of PMI would pick up in coming months. The survey respondents pointed out factors such as expectations of pro-business government policies, marketing initiatives, projects in the pipeline and favorable economic conditions for boosting optimism in the sector. On the other hand, India’s dominant service sector experienced sluggishness as services PMI declined to 50.2 in May from 51.0 in April this year. Despite the slowdown, the index stayed above 50, thus remained in expansionary territory. The service sector suffered due to general elections, softening in new work and business activity. The slowdown in the sector seems to be temporary as pick up in hiring and improvement in confidence among companies would bring back the sector on track.

India’s CPI Inflation Spiked to 7.4% in December 2019 //pt.knoema.com/evcpnfd/india-s-cpi-inflation-spiked-to-7-4-in-december-2019 2020-01-15T16:22:42Z Nematullah Khan pt.knoema.com://pt.knoema.com/user/1975840
India’s CPI Inflation Spiked to 7.4% in December 2019

India's retail inflation accelerated to 7.4 percent YoY in December as compared to 5.5 percent in November 2019, owing to volatile vegetable and onion prices. The inflation was previously slumbering along at 2 percent from November 2018 to April 2019 and around 3 percent from May 2019 to August 2019. Since October 2019, it has started breaching the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) medium-term target of 4 percent.   The food items that constitute around half of the inflation basket (48.2%) grew 14 percent in December compared to 10 percent in November. Within the food and beverages category, vegetable prices rose 60 percent in December compared to 36 percent in November 2019.   Core inflation - excluding volatile prices of items such as food and energy - grew modestly at 3.7 percent in December, led by increases in freight and telecom rates. The stagnant core inflation that has more weightage (around 52 percent) as compared to food and beverages weightage (around 48 percent) reflects subdued demand in the economy.    December inflation represents a breach of the RBI’s upper bound on inflation (2-6% target) for the first time since July 2016. Citing inflation concerns, the RBI kept interest rates unchanged in its December 2019 meeting. The central bank is likely to face a policy dilemma in the next monetary policy committee meeting in February as the Indian economy is facing stagflation and high inflation coupled with low GDP growth.

India’s CPI Inflation Jumped to 5.54 Percent in November 2019

India's retail inflation grew 5.54 percent YoY in November compared to 4.62 percent in October 2019, led by vegetables and onions price. The food price inflation that constitutes around half of the inflation basket, grew 10 percent in November compared to 7.89 percent in previous month. Within food and beverages category, vegetable prices rose 36 percent in November compared to 26.1 percent and pulses rose to 13.94 percent in November compared to 11.72 percent in October. Seasonal food supply constraint is likely to put upward pressure on inflation in coming months.   Core Inflation that excludes volatile prices of items such as food and energy remained modest at around 3.5 percent in November 2019. The stagnant core inflation reflects the subdued demand in the economy. However, increase in telecom tariffs could push core inflation in coming months.   November inflation print, breaches RBI’s medium-term target of 4 percent for the second consecutive month. The surging inflation coupled with low GDP growth and declining industrial production possess policy challenge to RBI. However, MPC has given weightage to inflationary concerns over economic growth in its last meeting.

India’s CPI inflation Spiked to 4.62 percent in October 2019

India’s retail inflation spiked to 4.62 percent YoY in October compared to 3.99 percent in August 2019, driven by food prices as unpredictable rains disrupted supply of vegetables. The retail inflation surpassed the RBI’s medium-term target of 4 percent for the first time since July 2018.   Food price inflation, which amounts around half of the inflation basket, grew 7.89 percent in October compared to 5.11 percent in September. Within food and beverages category, vegetable prices rose highest 26.1 percent in October compared to 15.47 percent in September and pulses rose to 11.72 percent in October as compared 8.4 percent in September 2019.   Core Inflation, which excludes volatile items price such as food and energy, contracted to 3.44 percent in October compared to 4.02 percent in September 2019. The decline in the core inflation reflects the subdued demand in the economy.   Inflation by Area: Rural and Urban.Urban inflation ticked up 5.11 percent in October compared to 4.78 percent in September 2019, while food inflation jumped to 10.47 percent in October compared to 8.76 percent in September.Rural inflation rose to 4.29 percent in October compared to 3.24 percent in September 2019, driven by food inflation that grew to 6.42 percent in October compared to 3.22 percent in September 2019. Despite ticked up in retail inflation, the Reserve Bank of India is likely to maintain accommodative stance on more concerned factors such as subdued core inflation, worst performance of industrial growth, weakness in consumer demand and slowing economic growth, at MPC meeting in December 2019.

When will India have more people than China?

The population of China currently exceeds the population of India by approximately 70 million, according to estimates from the United Nations. The UN's World Population Prospects report puts the population of China at 1.38 billion, compared to 1.31 billion for India. Other sources' estimates of current population range from 1.37 to 1.40 billion for China and from 1.28 to 1.31 billion for India.  Just as current population estimates differ, so do forecasts as to when the difference in the population between the two countries will level off.According to the United Nations', existing differences between the total population of the two countries will level off by 2022.The UN Food and Agriculture Organization gives a later date - 2024 - as do the OECD and UNCTAD, which predict 2028.In contrast, analysis from the World Bank suggests that India could outpace China as early as 2021, just 5 years from now. Global expectations that the Indian population will surpass that of China stem from these two countries belonging to different fertility groups. China is considered to be a "low fertility" country while India is generally considered an "intermediate fertility" country. India, like China, has already experienced a substantial decline in fertility as a result of the implementation of its National Family Planning Program in 1952, but the program did not lead to the same dramatic population changes as experienced under China's One-Child Policy. Other factors behind the anticipated rapid population growth in India are high illiteracy and poverty rates, immigration from Bangladesh and Nepal, and declining mortality rates. These same factors have already led India to outpace China in terms of total contribution to world population growth. During the period 2010-2015, the population of India increased by 16 million - the highest contribution of any country, accounting for 19% of the global population increase - while the population of China grew by 7 million. India is expected to continue to lead globally in contribution to population growth through 2050, followed by Nigeria. Various international agencies estimate that India's current growth rate is in the range of 1.2 to 1.32 percent, while China's is lower at about 0.46 to 0.56 percent. And although India's population growth rate is continuously declining - expected to drop below 1% by 2024 and below 0% threshold by 2069 - it is not expected to drop below China's growth rate during the next 100 years, virtually ensuring India's status as the world population leader for some time to come.

India's Industrial Production Contracted 4.3 Percent in September 2019

India’s Industrial production, measured by index of industrial production (IIP), contracted 4.3 percent YoY in September compared to a revised 1.1 percent decline in August 2019, dragged down by all sectors. Earlier released data on core infrastructure industries, that accounts around 40 percent weightage in the IIP index, had suggested  the decline the industrial production. The contraction in the industrial output adds to the concerns amid slow economic growth.   Sectoral Performance of IIP: Manufacturing industries output that contributes over 77 percent to the IIP, contracted 3.9 percent YoY in September as compared to 1.6 percent growth in August 2019. Seventeen out of twenty-three manufacturing industry groups contracted in September.Electricity generation contracted 2.6 percent YoY in September as compared to 0.9 percent decline in August 2019.Mining output contracted 8.5 percent YoY in September as compared to 0.1 percent growth in previous month. Use based segment performance of IIP:Primary goods contracted 5.1 percent YoY in September as compared to growth of 1 percent in August 2019.Capital goods output contracted 20.7 percent YoY in September as compared to contraction of 21.4 percent in August 2019, reflects subdued investment activity.Consumer durables output contracted further 9.9 percent YoY in September from decline of 9.1 percent YoY in August 2019.Consumer non-durables output, a barometer for the rural economy, contracted 0.4 percent YoY in September against a growth of 3.1 percent YoY in the previous month.Infrastructure and construction goods output declined 6.4 percent YoY in September as compared to decline of 4.8 percent in previous month.

GST Revenue Collection Declined 5.29 percent in October, 2019

The Goods and Services Tax (GST) revenue declined 5.29 percent YoY in October compared to 2.67 percent decline in September 2019, reflects timid demand in the Indian economy. Out of the gross collections of INR 95,380 crore, CGST was INR 17,582 crores, SGST was INR 23,674 crores and IGST was 46,517 crores in October 2019.This was the third consecutive month where GST collection remained below INR 1 Lakh crore, despite festive season in October.   The depressed GST revenue collection would likely put pressure on government of India (GOI) finances that is already showing sluggish growth. In the first half of the FY20 (March-September), the GOI has collected 36.8 percent tax revenue of the full year target. Moreover, reduction in corporate tax rate has added fiscal pressure on the GOI as well.

India's Merchandise Exports Contracted to 6.56 Percent in September

India’s merchandise exports contracted 6.57 percent YoY in September to reach US$ 26.03 billion on back of a decline of 6.05 percent YoY in August 2019. Export was largely dragged down by key foreign exchange earning commodities such as processed petroleum products, gems & jewellery and engineering goods.   Export of major commodities that experienced contraction: Out of 30 major export commodities, 22 commodities showed contraction in September, while only seven commodities had contracted in August 2019. Among major export commodities, petroleum product (18.6 percent), gems and jewellery (5.56 percent), engineering goods (6.2 percent), Meat, dairy & poultry products (23.51 percent), RMG of all textiles (2.17) contracted in September 2019. The core, non-oil and non-gems & jewellery, exports dropped 4.2 percent in September.   On the other hand, only eight out of thirty commodities, Drugs & Pharmaceuticals (8.72 percent), Iron Ore (13.96 percent) and Electronic Goods (33 percent) grew in September.   On global front, a combination of factors such as softening of commodity prices, ongoing trade war between the US and China, uncertainty over Brexit, developments in Iran and Turkey have created uncertainties in the world economy which are reflecting in slower global trade. Moreover, on domestic front, MSMEs and merchant exporters have been facing the problem of access to credit.   Imports contracted sharply: Merchandise imports dropped at a faster rate of 13.85 percent to US$ 36.89 billion in September compared to US$ 39.58 billion in August 2019, showing weakness in domestic demand. The contraction was largely due to sharp decline in imports of petroleum, gold and transport equipment.   Import of Petroleum, Crude & products, largest in import bill, fell by 18.33 percent to US$ 8.97 billion in September 2019. The decline was driven by volatility in crude oil prices and subdued infrastructure industries.   Import of gold fell by 50.82 percent to US$ 1.27 billion in September. The continued contraction in gold imports is reflection of spike in the price of the precious metals including precious and semi-precious stones.   Among other major importing commodities, import of coal (23.96 percent), petroleum (18.3 percent), chemicals (16.2 percent), plastic material (10.7 percent), precious stones (17.3 percent), iron and steel (14.6 percent) and electronic goods (0.14 percent) contracted in September 2019. The only significant growth was in import of electrical & non-electrical Machinery that grew 19.43 percent YoY in September 2019.   The core, non-oil and non-gold, imports dropped 8.88 percent YoY to US$ 26.64 billion in September 2019, which raise the concerns of a domestic consumption slowdown.   However, the contraction in imports faster than exports improved the trade deficit to US$10.86 billion in September from US$13.45 billion in August 2019. This will ease pressure on current account deficit, which had worsened to 2 percent of GDP in the Q1 FY19-20.

India’s CPI inflation Spiked to 3.9 percent in September 2019

India’s retail inflation ticked up to 3.99 percent in September compared to 3.28 percent in August 2019, highest since July 2018. The retail inflation was higher than market expectation.   The acceleration in the inflation was largely driven by food and beverages category that ticked up to 4.7 percent in September compared to 2.96 percent in August. Within food and beverages category, vegetable prices rose highest 15.4 percent in September compared to 6.9 percent in August and meat & fish prices rose 10.29 percent in September as compared to 8.51 percent in August. The food price inflation rose to 5.11 in September compared to 2.99 in August 2019, highest since December 2017 as India experienced skewed rainfall across the country.    Rural and Urban:Rural inflation moved up to 3.24 percent in September from 2.25 percent in the previous month.Urban inflation remained flat at 4.78 percent in September as compared to 4.49 percent in the previous month.The gap between rural and urban inflation reduced in September compared to previous month as food inflation helped to push  rural inflation upward. Despite tick up in retail prices more than market expectations, it stayed within the range of RBI’s medium-term target of 4 percent. Given subdued core inflation, weak industrial production (IIP), weakness in consumer demand, RBI is likely to maintain accommodative stance in coming MPC meeting. Moreover, global factors such as volatility in crude oil prices in the near term, weakness in global demand, persisting geopolitical uncertainties would also help to maintain rate cut cycle in coming MPC meeting in December 2019.

India’s CPI inflation Inches up to 3.21 percent in August 2019

India’s retail inflation ticked up to 3.21 percent in August compared to 3.15 percent in July, highest in last ten months. The acceleration in the inflation was largely due to rise in food items like meat and fish, vegetables and pulses.   Core inflation, which excludes volatile items price such as food and energy, contracted marginally to 4.20 percent in August from 4.25 percent in July. The contraction in the core inflation has been indicating weak demand in the economy.   Despite a small tick up in headline inflation, it stayed below RBI’s medium-term target of 4 percent. Given the subdued inflationary pressure, falling manufacturing PMI , industrial production index  and slowing economic growth, RBI has lowered its repo rate by 110bps over last four MPC meetings.  Given the subdued inflationary pressure and slowing economy, RBI could cut rates further in the next MPC meets on 4th Oct 2019.

India’s Economic Growth Tumbles to 5 percent in Q1 FY2019-20

India’s economic growth slowed down further in Q1 FY2019-20, dragged down by a slump in manufacturing, weaker consumer demand and slow private consumption. Asia’s third largest economy grew 5.0 percent Y-o-Y in Q1 FY2019-20, below 5.8 percent growth in Q4 FY2018-19 and below market expectations. The growth rate has fallen over last five quarters from 8.1 percent in Q4 FY2017-18 to 5 percent in Q1 FY2019-20.In gross value-added terms, the economy grew at 4.9 percent Y-o-Y in Q1 FY2019-20, compared to 5.7 percent in Q4 FY2018-19.Nominal GDP, without adjusting inflation, grew 8 percent Y-o-Y in Q1 FY2019-20, compared to 9.4 percent in Q4 FY2018-19 and 12.6 percent in Q1 FY2018-19. The slowdown has been observed across all major sectors. Industrial growth was dragged down by manufacturing, mining and construction. Manufacturing growth, which has bearing on employment, fell down to 0.6 percent. Among the services sector, financial services saw sharp decline in growth, while trade and transportation saw stronger growth compared to the preceding quarter. Moreover, slowing world economy and its spillover effect through trade and financial channels have added to the slowdown in the economy.

India’s Merchandise Exports rise 2.25 percent in July 2019

India’s merchandise exports grew 2.25 percent Y-o-Y in July 2019 to reach US$ 26.3 billion in a contrast to a decline of 9.71 percent Y-o-Y in June 2019. Electronic goods and pharmaceuticals helped the export to return in positive territory in July. Non-petroleum and non-gems and jewellery exports rose 5.3 percent Y-o-Y against a contraction of 4.9 percent in the previous month. Exports of high value items such as gems and jewellery declined by 6.7 percent and 5 percent Y-o-Y respectively. Moreover, exports of employment intensive leather products declined 3.7 percent Y-o-Y. To some extent, the depreciation of INR against US$ in the month of June and July provided impetus to the export gains.   Reflecting subdued domestic demand, merchandise imports dropped at faster rate of 10.43 percent Y-o-Y in July compared to 9.1 percent Y-o-Y decline in June. The decline was largely due to contraction in imports of gold (-42 percent), petroleum sector (-22 percent) and pearls, precious and semi-precious stones (-31 per cent).   Trade deficit shrank significantly to US$13.43 billion in July 2019 from US$18.63 billion in July 2018 as imports contracted to US$39.76 billion.   Given slowing domestic economy along with the global economy-both developed and emerging markets, amidst elevated trade tensions between China and the US, geo-political uncertainty, growth in exports and imports is likely to remain subdued in coming months.

India Slips to 7th Place in Global GDP Ranking

In 2018, India slipped to 7th place globally by GDP, according to the World Bank, behind the world's largest economies - the United States and China - and a collection of European countries plus Japan. India also ceded its status last year as the world's fastest growing economy to China, growing by 5.8 percent in the 4Q of FY2018-19 compared to China's 6.35 percent.Several key external factors, including the slowing global economy, withdrawals of foreign institutional investors from emerging markets in 2018, and currency fluctuations, have affected India’s ranking by GDP.Moreover, weak domestic demand, low private investments, under performance of the domestic manufacturing sector, and a slowdown in automobile sales have contributed to sluggish GDP growth. In addition, India's facing stress in the non-banking financial company (NBFC), low rural wages, and the slowdown in credit to medium-sized enterprises.

India Population

The population of India was 1.311 billion in 2015, according to an estimate from the United Nations, making it the second most populated country in the world after China. But, as early as in 2022, the population of India is widely expected to surpass that of China to make India the most populous country in the world. Even now India contributes twice as much as China to global population growth. By 2050, the Population Division of the UN expects India population to exceed 1.62 billion people. According to the 2011 census data, the most populous Indian state is Uttar Pradesh with population of roughly 200 million. To put this into context, Uttar Pradesh's population is nearly equal to that of the world's fifth most populous country: Brazil's population in 2015 was estimated at 208 million. And, the examples can go on. The second most populous Indian state, Maharashtra, has a population roughly the same as the population of Mexico. The main factors behind the rapid population growth in India are high fertility, illiteracy, poverty and immigration from Nepal and Bangladesh. Though the fertility rate in India is decreasing slowly, it is still above 2.1 births per woman that, when combined with low a low national mortality rate, results in each new generation being more populous than the previous one. Cohesive population policy is needed for India to bring the rate of population growth under control. However, it would be difficult to implement a family planning program with similar effectiveness as China’s “One-Child Policy” in India due to the high level of heterogeneity of its population: numerous ethnic groups, religions and languages coexist in this country. Despite population problems, India is rapidly increasing in economic power and has high future potential. By some estimates, the GDP per capita in India will increase by 37 percent by 2020, helping support this booming population.

India’s CPI inflation Inches up to 3.05% in May, 2019

India’s consumer price inflation ticked up to 3.05% in May, highest in the last seven months, from revised number of 2.99%, in April, 2019. The acceleration in the inflation was largely due to rise in pulses (2.13% in May from deflation of 0.81% in April) and vegetable prices (5.46% in May vs. 2.87% in April) resulting into overall food inflation accelerating to 1.83% in May, as compared to 1.10% in the previous month. Food inflation could pick up further in coming months if there is shortfalls in rain during this monsoon season. The core inflation declined to 4.2% in May from 4.5% in April, 2019 due to weak domestic demand in the Indian economy. In spite of marginal increase in headline inflation, it stayed below RBI’s medium term target of 4% for ten consecutive months. Given the subdued inflationary pressure, lower manufacturing PMI in May and slowing economic growth, RBI had lowered its repo rate by 25bps to 5.75% in the last MPC meet in June, third consecutive rate cut since February, 2019.

India's CPI Inflation Rises Marginally to 2.92% in April 2019

India’s consumer price inflation rose marginally to 2.92% on YoY in April 2019, stays below RBI’s benchmark at 4%. Inflation has increased by 1.87% and 4.1% in rural and urban areas respectively. Among the CPI components, food and beverages inflation increased to 1.38% in April from 0.66% in March 2019. Within food items, the inflation for meat and fish has increased to 7.55% and vegetables 2.87%, whereas inflation for fruits has declined to 4.89% in April 2019.The inflation for housing fell to 4.7%, while for miscellaneous, transport and communication items fell to 5.1% and 2.2% respectively in April 2019. The core inflation has been declined to 4.5% in April from 5.1% in March 2019. This reflects slowdown in consumer demand. Given the lower inflation and slowdown in industrial production, market seems to believe that the lower growth has created room for RBI to cut the rates further when Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meets in June, 2019 for the policy review. The Central bank has cut the key policy rate by 25bps each in it last two policy reviews. However, oil prices at international market, fiscal situation of the economy and monsoon strength are going to pose challenge to MPC when they meet for the policy review.

India Slips in Global list of Happiest Nations

India’s economic growth has been one of the highest among major economies in the world. A combination of factors such as acceleration of structural reforms, rule based policy framework, low inflation and deregulation measures to improve foreign investments have contributed in the growth. However, the high growth has failed to translate into happier people.  A research done by the UN as they call it “Happiness Index”, shows that people are less happy than they were in the previous years. Maintaining downward trend, India has been ranked 140th in global list of the happiest countries, according to the 7th World Happiness Report published by the UN, which measures happiness performance of 156 countries based on six factors such as GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, social freedom, generosity and absence of corruption. India has lost 7 places from last year’s 133 rank. The UN research has found that there is positive correlation between happiness and the six factors used for measuring happiness. Unfortunately, India does not score well on these factors. Various studies and reports have highlighted deficiencies in areas such as income, health, education and unemployment rate. High unemployment rate causes distress among working age population with spillover effect. The unemployment rate does not only create problem at individual household level but also has an impact on social scale. The unemployed youths are vulnerable to becoming anti-social elements and are easily misguided to get involved in violent activities as well. As a result, it causes distress within society. Over 70% people live in rural areas and 90% of them are involve in agriculture. Although agriculture and allied sector accounts for 17% of India’s GVA (PIB) and the sector growth was 3.8% in 2018-2019 (MOSPI), India has been facing agrarian distress. In the education sector, a combination of factors which may cause distress among youths and parents are privatization of education, lack of quality institutions, lack of quality teachers, contract teachers who are paid lower than permanent teachers and existing institutions fail to produce skilled working class. Many researchers have found that there is negative correlation between internet use and happiness. India’s digital revolution has significantly increased the internet use in mobile and has reduced the social interaction among people. Mobile internet use has increased so much that India has surpassed European countries in using mobile data. Performance of India’s Neighbors Among South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries, Pakistan has been placed at 67th position while Afghanistan, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh positions are at 154th, 95th, 100th, 130th, and 125th respectively. Myanmar, the country that experienced ethnic violence between the majority Buddhists and the minority Rohingya Muslims, has been placed at 131st position. Only war ravaged Afghanistan has performed worse than India. China has also lost 7 places last year to 93. Global Performance Finland topped the ranking of the world’s happiest countries for the second year in a row whereas war torn South Sudan came last. The top 10 was dominated by the Nordics, with Denmark, Norway and Iceland taking the other leading spots followed by Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, New Zealand, Canada and Austria. The United States dropped one place to 19th.

Rupee Devaluation Against the US Dollar, 1947 - Present

Since India was under British rule, the rupee was pegged to the British pound. From 1927 to 1966, 13 rupees = 1 pound. The peg was maintained until 1966 when the rupee was devalued and pegged to the U.S. dollar at a rate of 7.5 rupees = 1 dollar. This peg lasted until the U.S. dollar was devalued in 1971.

Credit Deposit Ratio of commercial Banks in India

In all the noise about rising bad loans, a deposit deluge in the aftermath of demonetisation and the collapse of credit growth, it’s time to take stock of where public funds are lying right now in the economy. A credit deposit ratio is a key measure to assess a bank’s liquidity and its health. What is Credit-Deposit Ratio: Credit-deposit ratio, popularly known as CD ratio, is the ratio of how much bank lends out of the deposits. It indicates how much of a bank’s core funds are being used for lending, the main activity. Though RBI does not stipulate a minimum or maximum level for the ratio, a very low ratio indicates that banks are not making full use of their resources. Alternatively, a high ratio indicates more reliance on deposits for lending and likely pressure on resources. Current Trends in Credit-Deposit Ratio: Data from the Reserve Bank of India shows that the credit-deposit ratio as on 2018 Q2 stood at 75.59%, which means that out of Rs100 deposit, Rs75.59 went towards lending and the rest was used to purchase government bonds. Exactly a year ago, banks had lent Rs72.79 out of every Rs100 deposit and had parked the rest in bonds. The biggest share of credit goes to industry followed by services and individuals, whereas a very little part goes to agriculture.

Aging Society as an Agent of Economic Change in India

People are living longer and, in some parts of the world, healthier lives. This represents one of the crowning achievements of the last century but also a significant challenge. Longer lives must be planned for. Societal aging may affect economic growth and many other issues, including the sustainability of families, the ability of states and communities to provide resources for older citizens, and international relations. Preparing financially for longer lives and finding ways to reduce aging-related disability should become national and global priorities. Experience shows that for nations, as for individuals, it is critical to address problems sooner rather than later. Waiting significantly increases the costs and difficulties of addressing these challenges. To ensure older people's voices are among those making a contribution to defining the post-2015 sustainable development strategic goals Help Age International created the Global Age Watch Index. This index assesses 96 countries worldwide on how good they handle their aging populations to provide them with decent, active and healthy lives and enables policymakers to make necessary steps to improve the well-being of older people. This issue is of high importance because people do not stop developing when they reach the age of sixty and, thereby, have the same need and right to live in an environment that fosters their development just as it does the development of young people. This growing population will increase the need for sustainable, thoughtful delivery of services that match their evolving needs.   Excerpts from the US National Institute of Health publication, Why Population Aging Matters: A Global Perspective.

Rupee Devaluation against Dollar, 1947 - till date

Every Indian knows how much the Economy is changing now on daily basis. Hence, being an India prepared this dashboard for our knowledge.   Since India was under British rule rupee was pegged to pounds. From 1927 to 1966, it was 13 rupees = 1 pound. This was maintained until 1966, when the rupee was devalued and pegged to the U.S. dollar at a rate of 7.5 rupees = 1 dollar. This value lasted until the U.S. dollar devalued in 1971. Prime Minister

Guess How Much Money Poured Into Indian Startups Since 2015

Since January 2015, more than 1,000 Indian startup companies attracted funding from international investors, with private equity firms making up nearly 98 percent of new investment, according to data from Trak.in, a local business news and opinion company. Private equity firms - led by Alibaba, SoftBank, and Steadview Capital Management - invested a total of about $9.5 billion during the period. In contrast, data from TNW news indicates that in 2010, Indian startups brought in only $13 million in private equity and venture capital investment.The highest funded startup was Ola Cabs - a car rental company in Mumbai, Delhi - which reported $1.2 billion in funding, followed by e-commerce giants like Flipkart, Snapdeal and Paytm. Bangalore, the startup capital of India, attracted one third of the investment during the period, or nearly $3 billion. Other cities, including Delhi, Gurgaon, and Mumbai, each attracted a total investment in startups of more than $1 billion. Note: In many cases, the funding amount is not disclosed. All amounts are converted into USD (rupee conversion at the date of news) for uniformity.

Population and Energy - Forecasting Data

Humanity is not going to go extinct. They are going to be massive and ever-growing numbers of people in dire need for the foreseeable future. The World is growing at an amazing rate. The operation of our present industrial civilization is wholly dependent on access to a very large amount of energy of various types. If the availability of this energy were to decline significantly it could have serious repercussions for civilization and the human population it supports.

Crude Oil - Basic Essential Component

Crude Oil - A naturally occurring, unrefined petroleum product composed of hydrocarbon deposits. Crude Oil can be refined to produce usable products such as gasoline, diesel and various forms of petrochemicals. Oil is traded in the US Currency, a strong dollar makes it more expensive for International investors, dampening demand. "The combination of elevated stockpiles in the US and increasing production from OPEC, sluggish demand growth, and a stronger US (dollar) would continue to pressure oil prices", said Bernard Aw, market strategist at IG markets in Singapore. As we see in the current market, the crude oil has declined in this year. So, does this decline happens for longer period. We found that there will be a greater impact in the following years, where the price trend increases for the oil based on the World Bank Commodity Price Forecast Data, July 2015.

Farmers Suicide in India

Indian farmers commit suicide at a far lower rate than the rest of the population. If we give a cursory look at how much agriculture has been contributing to Indian economy; the number over years are shocking to say the least. Share of Agriculture and Allied Services in Indian GDP decreased from 52% in 1950-51 to 14% in 2013-14 according to a planning commission report. The decrease has been constant and not gradual by any stretch of imagination; decreasing by 3.5%-4% points every 5 years in the recent decades. This basically means that out of India's current GDP just 14% is being provided by agriculture and allied services (12% if you consider just agriculture).

Currency Chests, Repositories and Small Coin Depots/Sub-depots - RBI

The data shows the trend in the currency chest & small coin depots across India over the given period of time. To facilitate the distribution of banknotes and rupee coins, the Reserve Bank has authorized select branches of scheduled banks to establish currency chests. These are actually storehouses where banknotes and rupee coins are stocked on behalf of the Reserve Bank. Some bank branches are also authorized to establish small coin depots to stock small coins. The small coin depots also distribute small coins to other bank branches in their area of operation.

Lack of 12 Million Females in India due to Female Foeticide

Female foeticide is an ever-growing menace in Indian societies, and there is ample evidence. Censuses and surveys bring about seriously threatening statistics and figures. According to the latest Census 2011, the overall sex ratio in India is 940 females per 1000 males. This may seem insignificant – why’s 60 less girls such a big issue? However, consider the massive population of India of over 1.22 billion, and do your math right and you’ll see the gravity of the situation. A deficit of 60 females per 1000 males, translates into a deficit of about 37 million (3.7 crore) females in India – and that is a huge figure. In a natural world, without sex selective abortion, the sex ratio should be approximately 980 females per 1000 males (this is evolution’s way of correcting for the higher infant mortality rate in boys, than girls, so the sex ratio is balanced by the onset of early adulthood in females – amongst several other factors). Do some more math, and you’ll realize that there are 12 million less females in India than there should be. Source : Child sex ratio and foeticide by states of India

Child Abuse Statistics, India

Every Child is Innocent Save them from the fear... A child is nothing but a growing adult, who's brain is yet to develop about thr things going on around it, understand people and environment, going towards maturity. Child abuse is something that child must've not even heard of. It is something against the child. It destroys the child physically as well as mentally. Its a total damage to the childs growth. The child not only breaks down, but even looses hope in humanity and will fear to stand up again. Such children must be handled in a way that they can learn to live again. Teach them about the people they are surrounded around, guide them, council them in a way that their childhood dreams aren't lost and will learn to fight back. Let them beleive that there are good people out there too. Teach them to raise their voice against every bad. You cannot expect anyone person who underwent abuse to just forget and move on. Give that child or person the time to mentally stable itself. And allow them to live their life again, without reminding them about the incident over and over again, once they're totally over it.
