INDIAN ECONOMY:

World Economy: According to the IMF report, global growth is projected to fall from an estimated 3.5% in 2022 to 3% in both 2023 and 2024.

The IMF on July 25 projected a growth rate of 6.1% for India in 2023, which is a 0.2 percentage point upward revision compared with the April projection."Growth in India is projected at 6.1% in 2023, a 0.2 percentage point upward revision compared with the April projection," it said in its latest update of the World Economic Outlook.

While the forecast for 2023 is modestly higher than predicted in the April 2023 World Economic Outlook (WEO), it remains weak by historical standards.

The rise in central bank policy rates to fight inflation continues to weigh on economic activity. Global headline inflation is expected to fall from 8.7% in 2022 to 6.8% in 2023 and 5.2% in 2024, it said.

Underlying (core) inflation is projected to decline more gradually, and forecasts for inflation in 2024 have been revised upward, it said. The IMF said the recent resolution of the U.S. debt ceiling standoff and, earlier this year, strong action by authorities to contain turbulence in the U.S. and Swiss banking, reduced the immediate risks of financial sector turmoil. This moderated adverse risks to the outlook, it said.

However, the balance of risks to global growth remains tilted to the downside.

Inflation could remain high and even rise if further shocks occur, including those from an intensification of the war in Ukraine and extreme weather-related events, triggering more restrictive monetary policy, the report said.

Financial sector turbulence could resume as markets adjust to further policy tightening by central banks. Chinas recovery could slow, in part as a result of unresolved real estate problems, with negative cross border spillovers, it said.

"Sovereign debt distress could spread to a wider group of economies. On the upside, inflation could fall faster than expected, reducing the need for tight monetary policy, and domestic demand could again prove more resilient," said the WEO report.

The IMF said central banks in economies with elevated and persistent core inflation should continue to clearly signal their commitment to reducing inflation.

A restrictive stance - with real rates above neutral - is needed until there are clear signs that underlying inflation is cooling.

"With fiscal deficits and government debt above pre-pandemic levels, credible medium-term fiscal consolidation is in many cases needed to restore budgetary room for maneuver and ensure debt sustainability," the IMF said.

GLOBAL ECONOMY:

Global economic activity is experiencing a broad-based and sharper-than-expected slowdown, with inflation higher than seen in several decades. The cost-of-living crisis, tightening financial conditions in most regions, Russias invasion of Ukraine, and the lingering COVID-19 pandemic all weigh heavily on the outlook. Global growth is forecast to slow from 6.0 percent in 2021 to 3.2 percent in 2022 and 2.7 percent in 2023.

This is the weakest growth profile since 2001 except for the global financial crisis and the acute phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. Global inflation is forecast to rise from 4.7 percent in 2021 to 8.8 percent in 2022 but to decline to 6.5 percent in 2023 and to 4.1 percent by 2024.

Monetary policy should stay the course to restore price stability, and fiscal policy should aim to alleviate the cost-of-living pressures while maintaining a sufficiently tight stance aligned with monetary policy. Structural reforms can further support the fight against inflation by improving productivity and easing supply constraints, while multilateral cooperation is necessary for fast-tracking the green energy transition and preventing fragmentation.

Chinas economy expanded 4.5 per cent year-on-year according to its National Bureau of Statistics, while Washingtons Commerce Department said the United States grew by an anaemic 1.1 per cent.

China is rebounding after the end of zero-Covid measures that battered business and supply chains, but is bedevilled by a host of other headaches.

Meanwhile, the United States is battling persistently elevated inflation, Germany is in a technical recession amid an energy crisis triggered by the Ukraine War, and Jpan expanded by just 0.4 percent in the first quarter.

As per the data, the real GDP or GDP at constant (2011-12) prices in the year 2022-23 is estimated to attain a level of Rs. 160.06 Lakh Crore, as against the first revised estimates of the GDP for the year 2021-22 of Rs. 149.26 lakh crore.
