Indian Economy Overview

Despite the distressed global economic landscape, the Indian economy is expected to grow at a robust 7% (in real terms) during the year ending March 2023, after posting a growth of 8.7% in FY 2021-22 according to the Economic Survey — 2023.

Some of the growth drivers were the credit growth to the MSME sector, which was remarkably high, at over 30.5% on average, during Jan-Nov 2022. The complex of the central government, which increased by 63.4% in the first eight months of FY 2022-23, was another growth driver of the Indian economy. The optimistic growth forecasts also stem from a number of positives like the rebound of private consumption, which led to a boost in production activity

Another factor that contributed to growth was the near universal vaccination coverage, which enabled people to spend on contact-based services, such as restaurants, hotels, shopping malls, and cinemas. Private consumption as a percentage of GDP stood at 58.4% in Q2 of FY 2022-23, the highest among the second quarters of all the years since FY 2013-14, supported by a rebound in contact-intensive services.

The return of migrant workers to cities, to work in consumption sites, led to a significant decline in housing market inventory. This was also supported by a strengthening of the balance sheets of corporates and the robust capitalisation of public sector banks, which were ready to increase their credit supply.

While several advanced economies struggling with banking sector turmoil, bank failures, and contagion risks, the Indian banking and non-banking financial service sectors remained healthy, and financial markets evolved in an orderly manner, according to the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

OUTLOOK

Global growth is forecasted to slow from 3.4% in 2022 to 2.8% in 2023 as per International Monetary Funds (IMF) World Economic Outlook, April 2023. A sustained inflation in many economies, rising interest rates and negative global spillover effects from the war in Ukraine is expected to dampen trade growth in the calendar year 2023. This is reflected in the lower global trade growth forecast by the World Trade Organisation at 1% in 2023 from 3.5% in 2022.

The Indian economy is expected to witness GDP growth of 6.0% to 6.8% in FY 2023-24, depending on the trajectory of economic and political developments globally, according to the Economic Survey 2023. The survey also projects a baseline GDP growth of 6.5% in real terms in FY 2023-24. The RBI projects headline inflation at 6.8% in FY 2022-23, which is outside its target range. A surge in the growth of exports in FY 2021-22 and the first half of FY 2022-23 resulted in acceleration in production.

Looking ahead, the RBI MPC expects that higher rabi production will improve the prospects for the agriculture sector and rural demand, while steady growth in contact-intensive services is likely to drive urban demand. If these impulses play out, the consumption story will continue to power growth. Moderating commodity prices are also providing tailwinds.

Manufacturing and investment activity are expected to provide a strong thrust to growth, with the gov ernment’s focus on capital expenditure and capacity utilisation reaching above its long-period average. The only concern is that despite the positive  outlookthe global headwinds could impact the Indian economy through a drag from net external demand. To monitor these positive and negative risks, the RBI assured that it will continue to balance financial conditions in line with the productive requirements of the economy, even as monetary policy moves decisively to withdraw accommodation. The MPC predicts real GDP growth of 6.5% for 2023-24, with the overall oudook remaining dynamic and fast-evolving.

POSSIBLE THREATS

Technology has been the most disruptive component in the broking industry. For brokerages to sustain in the business, adapting to changing realities and focusing on adding value to investors hold the key. Redundancy due to constant technological and digital advancement remains a threat to the broking industry. New market entrants always are breaking through established markets, coming up with more customer friendly solutions developed from the scratch and unencumbered by legacy systems. Customers always demand better services, seamless experiences regardless of channel, and more value for their money.
