Outlook:
India’s macro economic story is slowly but surely taking shape although data on industrial production and slow trade growth continued to act as ceilings to India’s growth. The IMF avers that in the current – and projected – global scenario, India will continue to standout with the fastest growth rate. And this prognosis is not without reason. After two years of sub-par rainfall, this year’s monsoon has been abundant and well spread which will help revive farm income and push up private consumption.
The first advance estimates released by the agriculture ministry for Kharif crops this year suggests a record output, higher by 9%. Higher soil moisture due to the good monsoon also augurs well for the Rabi crop.
Higher crop output will help improve spends on agri-inputs and services. Moreover, prices of key agricultural inputs have stabilized which signal that farmer balance sheets are on the mend now and this will help revive the overall rural economy.
Importantly, there is discernible traction on reforms including GST which augurs well for India’s growth trajectory. Moreover, there are signs of demand recovery manifesting through broader consumption pick-up in growth rates in automobile sales, air passenger traffic and retail loans.
The Seventh Pay Commission and the OROP scheme award has put money in the pockets of government employees and pensioners which will further help demand. The lag effects of interest rate cuts by the RBI along with the increased transmission of lower interest rates will also be supportive of consumption. All of these bode well for broad-based consumption led growth in the coming quarters.
