Shailja Commercial Trade Frenzy Ltd Management Discussions

Industry Structure And Developments:

Indias Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth moderated to 6.8% in 2018-19, from 7.2% in the previous financial year. Nevertheless, India still continues to be one of the fastest growing major economies in the world. Economic momentum was robust in the first half of the year, though showed some signs of moderation in the second half.

The Indian Economy During the year 2018-19, the Indian economy continued its journey towards restoring macroeconomic stability. Despite the global sluggishness, economic growth continued to be robust as inflation remained stable, while key macro parameters such as Fiscal Deficit and Current Account Deficit The IMF revised Indias growth forecast to 6.8% in FY19, a decline from the official advance estimates of 7.1%. Measured in terms of Gross Value Added (GVA) at constant prices, agriculture grew at 4.9%, while manufacturing recorded a growth of 7.9% in 2018-19. Among the services sector, growth rate of ‘financial, real estate & professional services remained at 5.7% during the year. Large terms-of-trade gains, positive policy actions, structural reforms (the introduction of GST and formalisation of the inflation targeting framework) and improved confidence are expected to support consumer demand and investment. In the near term, however, private investment will likely be constrained by weakened corporate and public bank balance sheets and after effects of temporary negative consumption shock induced by cash shortages and payment disruptions associated with the recent currency note withdrawal and exchange initiative. The Union budget remained focused on boosting personal consumption through a reduction in the tax rates at the lowest slabs and record high allocation towards Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MNREGA), which is expected to increase the spending power of the salaried class and rural population.

GLOBAL ECONOMIC OUTLOOK Global economic environment remained challenging in 2018 although economic activity is expected to pick up in 2018 and 2019, especially in emerging markets and developing economies. International Monetary Fund (IMF) in its latest outlook has upped the world GDP growth projections from 3.1% in 2016 to 3.5% in 2017. The real GDP growth in the United States dropped sharply to 1.6% in 2016 primarily on account of soft exports and declining investments. The growth is expected to rebound to 2.3% in 2018 and 2.5% in 2019 backed by expectations of fresh fiscal stimulus from the administration. The US seems to be the driver of global equity markets. Undoubtedly, the worlds largest basket of wealth is managed in the US and therefore allocations are driven by the views of Fund Managers in the US. A vibrant US market motivates fund managers to allocate larger funds to other markets in search of new opportunities and as a means of diversification. Equity investors look for growth and global market capitalisation has grown with substantial growth in GDP. Going forward, perhaps the biggest risk to equity markets are the extended valuations in the US markets. The S&P 500 EPS over the last decade has remained in a narrow band of 85 -110 whereas the value of the S&P has appreciated significantly, especially in the last five years. The S&P EPS has fallen in the last three years. Further, since 2010, US companies have borrowed funds to do share buybacks which, according to some research reports, aggregated $3.25 trillion for the S&P 500 companies and net of issuances, has reduced the number of shares issued by about 9.3%. Thus, in essence, if the number of shares had remained the same, the EPS would be lower by about 11%, reflecting a higher de growth in this period of rampant exuberance.

Indian Economy will see reasonable growth of 5.6% in the near terms of inflation, oil prices, budget deficits, interest rates, commodity prices and infrastructural bottlenecks remains area of concern.

Outlook for 2019-20:

IMF has projected that global economic growth may moderate from 3.6% in 2018 to 3.3% in 2019 and then pick up modestly to 3.6% in 2020. The current outlook can be attributed to a confluence of global factors like geopolitical uncertainty and ambiguity in US-China trade talks.
