OVERVIEW OF ECONOMY
As per median estimates, based on the Survey of Professional
Forecasters conducted by RBI, the Indian economy is likely to post a
moderate recovery in 2014-15. GDP growth is estimated to improve to
around 5.5% supported by an anticipated pick up in investment activity
in view of the part resolution of stalled projects, improved business
and consumer confidence and expectation of lower inflation. External
demand is expected to improve further during 2014-15 stemming from
encouraging growth prospects in Advanced Economies. Tighter global
financial and monetary conditions, risks to agricultural growth due to
the likelihood of sub-normal monsoons given the impending El Nino
weather conditions, possibility of a reversal in capital flows with the
interest rate cycle picking up in Advanced Economies represent some of
the key downside risks going forward. A stable government at the
Centre, greater clarity and certainty in policies and fast track
clearances of large projects would go a long way in engendering a much
needed boost to investor sentiment and revivingthe private investment
cycle in particular.
In the face of growing uncertainties in global financial conditions,
monetary easing was paused in June 2013. However, there has been
significant improvement in the external situation. With acceleration in
the growth of exports and decline in imports, the trade deficit for
2013-14 (April- December) has narrowed considerably. Reduction in the
trade deficit, complemented by a rise in net invisibles receipts,
resulted in significant reduction in the current account deficit (CAD)
in the first half (H1) of 2013-14. In response to these developments,
and due to steps undertaken to moderate the CAD, the exchange rate,
that breached the level of 68 per US$ in August 2013, recovered to
61.16 per US$ on October 11, 2013. The exchange rate of the rupee
averaged 61.91 per US$in December2013.
The World Bank has projected an economic growth rate of 5.7 per cent in
FY 15 for India, due to a more competitive exchange rate and several
significant investments going forward.
India is the third biggest economy in the world in terms of purchasing
power parity (PPP), according to a World Bank report. The country was
ranked 10th in the previous survey conducted in 2005.
