2. WHAT ARE THE
PROBLEMS INDIAN
ECONOMY IS FACING
RIGHT NOW?

3. Main problems
 Slowdown in growth
 High Inflation (recently moderated still above
RBI comfort zone of 4-6%)
 Worsening twin deficits
(High CAD & Fiscal deficit)
 Low IIP
 High interest rates
 Looming credit rating downgrade

4. Macro economic indicators
 Inflation (WPI vs. CPI, Core Inflation vs. Headline Inflation,
Cost-push vs. Demand pull inflation)
 IIP(Index of Industrial Production)
Mining -- 14.16%
Manufacturing -- 75.53%
Electricity -- 10.32%IIP
 (Use based calculation) (Basic – Capital—Intermediate–
Durable -- Non Durable )
 Fiscal deficit – Current account deficit – Relation between
two
 Why RBI can’t reduce rates when there is high CAD?

5.  When is data released?
 What are supply side constraints?
 Effect of high interest rates on economy
 GDP – Importance of it for removal of property
 Importance of savings rate, investment rate
 Consumption driven economy vs. Investment
driven economy
 Importance of these parameters in framing
fiscal and monetary policy

6. Small story about Indian
Economy(2009-13)
 Recession –> Fiscal stimulus –> High growth
2009-10, 2010-11 –> Mainly consumption
driven –> Low investment in production
capacities –> Supply side constraints –> High
Inflation –> RBI rate hikes –> Low private
investment –> low consumer spending –> Low
growth –> Less taxes –> High fiscal deficit
(crowding out of private investment)
--> current account deficit

7. Key takeaways from Economic
survey
 Three objectives for Indian Economy
1. To revive growth
2. India needs to shift from Consumption to Investment
3. Macro-economic stabilization
conflicting and having commonalities
 Shifting spending from consumption to investment
decreasing borrowing rate and increasing real returns
on savings for people
Structural reforms: moving people from low productivity
jobs and high productivity jobs

9. Budget specific terms:
 Capital receipts – receipts which entails sale of assets. eg: disinvestments,
sale of bonds
 Revenue receipts – do not entail sale of assets.
 Capital expense – expenditure to create assets.
 Revenue expense – other expenses.
 Plan Expenditure – Developmental spending.
 Non plan expenditure – Consumption spending

10. Receipts:
 Revenue Receipts & Capital receipts
 Revenue receipts: 12.56 lakh Cr.
 Tax: 8.89Lakh Cr = 12.36 lakh Cr- 3.47 lakh Cr(State's share)
 Tax on income and expenditure- corporate tax, income tax
 Tax on property and capital transaction-taxes on wealth, STT, TDS
 Tax on commodity and services-customs, sales tax, service tax
 Agenda : major sources, when economy is good tax revenue is more,
surcharge-20,000Cr additional, TDS for property valued more than
50Lakhs. Govt loses 20,000Cr in each of customs, excise and corporate tax
but inc. tax more than BE.

11. Receipts:
 Non-Tax: 1.72lakh Cr
 Interest receipts, profits and dividend :
 Interest – 17,000 Cr
 Dividends and Profits – 73,866 Cr. ( 42% of non tax revenue )
From PSUs , PSBs and RBI
 Agenda : PSUs sitting on cash piles give out more divided which increases
non tax receipts. Effect of disinvestment in PSUs on dividends and profits,
Over 75% (previously 50%) of Dividends and profit expected to come from
banking sector, so its progress is very important.
 General services - defence, police, public service commission.
 Social and community services – Medical and public health.
 Economic services - power, petroleum, industries, roads and
bridges, communication services, postal services, railway revenue,
R&D.

12. Receipts:
 Capital Receipts: 6.1lakh Cr.
 Debt receipts – 5.4 lakh Cr.
 market loans, treasury bills, internal debts and public accounts,
external debt.
 Market loans – 4.84 lakh Cr.
 Short term borrowings – 19844 Cr.
 Agenda : Importance of credit ratings.
 Non Debt receipts – 66000 Cr
 Recoveries of loans and advances – 10,000Cr
 State govt., union territories, foreign govt.
 Agenda : over the years, recoveries are more than BE. So healthy sign.
 Misc. capital receipts- 56000 Cr
 disinvestment , disinvestment from non govt. companies.
 Disinvestment receipts – 40,000 Cr.

13. Discuss:
 Agenda : difficulty in achieving disinvestment target, Govt. lose stake in
holding cos. So decreasing share of profit and dividends, public unrest,
one time revenue generators, cannot keep this as a practise. Valuation
degrade if auctions are not successful (depends on mkt sentiments as
well) not an healthy sign to the co.

14. Expenditure:
 Plan: 5.5 lakh Cr. – developmental expenditure: health, infra, social goals,
education.
 Non-plan: 11.10 lakh Cr. – consumption expenditure: defence, salaries,
subsidies, pensions.
 Non Plan Revenue Exp:
 Interest payments and debt servicing.-3.7 lakh Cr. ( 33% of total non plan )
 Grants to state govt.
 Pensions
 Subsidy - 2.2lakh Cr– food, oil, fertilizer (19.8% of total non plan)
 Police
 Grants to foreign govt.
 Transport.
 There is also non planned allocation for some sectors like agriculture, welfare
& education, infra, transport, research etc.
 Agenda : effects of increase in non plan expenditure.

15. Expenditure:
 Non Plan Capital Exp:
 Defence - 2 lakh Cr.
 Plan Capital Exp:
 Energy – power, nuclear power, petroleum, coal .
 Industry and minerals – iron and steel, non ferrous, mining , fertilizer,
MSMI,
 Transport
 Infrastructure
 IT
 Space research and other scientific research
 Agenda : These are the sectors which are contributing for major part of
returns. Any decrease in spending on these will affect the income in long
run.

16. Expenditure:
 Plan Revenue Exp:
 Social services – education; higher education, technical education(
IITs(2400Cr) , IIMs(350Cr)).
 Social goals - housing; rural housing, urban development.
-welfare; welfare of SCs, Tribal welfare.
 Agricultural (40,000 Cr)- various schemes and yojanas, animal and
crop husbandry.
 Rural development ( 74,429Cr) – MGNREGA
 Irrigation and flood control (development of water resources
information system, hydro
project)

17. Discuss:
 Agenda :
 Effect of widening fiscal deficit :
 Trend of Indian expenditure: plan expenditure always less than
budget estimate.
 So, any increase in fiscal deficit is due to increase in non-plan
expenditure.
 Decreasing PE but widening fiscal deficit  increasing non plan
expenditure. (No growth of assets)
 India achieves the fiscal deficit by decrease spending on plan exp.-
easier way.
 Revenue deficit = excess of revenue expenditure(plan + non plan) over
revenue receipt.
 Ideal condition : revenue deficit=0, then all the borrowings ( adding to
fiscal deficit) are for generating assets.

18. Trends:
In Rs.Lakh Cr. BE ( 2013-14 ) BE ( 2012-13 ) RE ( 2012-13 )

rtilizer higher )

19. Key Highlights

23. Sector wise impact analysis
 Infrastructure
 This sector has high forward and backward effects on other
sectors namely, automobiles, realty, metal and cement.
 Government will allow some institutions to raise tax-free
bonds up to 50,000 crore
 India Infrastructure Finance Corporation (IIFC), in partnership
with ADB, will help infrastructure companies access the bond
market to tap long-term funds
 Infrastructure Debt Fund- to provide long-term low cost debt
 Pradhan Mantri Gramin Saadhan Yojana(PMGSY-I and
PMGSY-II)
 JNNURM-Rs.14,873 crores
 Regulatory authority for the roads sector
 Hike in freight costs will offset the benefits of IDF and housing
development fund in cement sector.

24. Sector wise impact analysis
 Realty
 FM proposed to levy 1 per cent tax deducted at source, or TDS, on
properties sold for over Rs 50 lakh. Anybody selling a home for Rs 50
lakh will have to pay Rs 50,000 to the government as TDS. This led to
a sharp fall in realty index post budget.
 Rate of abatement reduced on flats with a carpet area of 2,000 sq.ft.
or more or of a value of `1 crore or more from 75% to 70%. Real
estate developers who were paying 12.5% service tax on 25% of the
value will now have to pay for 30% of the value.
 Additional interest subvention granted for 1st time buyers for
property worth not exceeding Rs.40lakhs, will have positive effect.
 An amount of Rs 20 billion allocated towards a proposed Urban
Housing Fund to be set up by the National Housing Bank(NHB) can be
seen as a welcome move for the housing finance sector
 Sales of affordable segment (tier-1 and tier-2 cities) may go up by
15%-20%, however metros will not be affected much.

25. Sector wise impact analysis
 Automobiles
 Excise duties on SUVs, which have been labeled as fuel guzzlers, has been
raised by 3% to 30% came as a blow to the ailing auto industry which
banked on SUV sales this year.
 Customs duty on high-end motor vehicles has been raised steeply to
100%, 75% and 25% respectively.
 JNNURM will boost the bus segment.
 Reduction in petroleum and diesel subsidies has led to SIAM reducing its
growth forecasts for passenger vehicles this year to 0-1%.
 Announcements to increase investment expected to have a positive
impact on the automobile sector in months to come.
 15% investment allowance on direct tax side is a welcome move for capex,
increase in surcharge on income-tax for corporate could be a slight
dampener
 SIDBI’s refinancing capability being doubled to Rs.100 billion per anum will
help the small and medium scale auto component manufacturing firms.

26. Sector wise impact analysis
 Banking and Financial Sector
 The prime focus of the government with respect to financial
sector has been (i) Financial inclusion and (ii) Conformance to
BASEL accords
 Recapitalization of Public Sector Banks
 Priority sector: All SCBs are directed to lend Rs 7000 billion to
the agriculture sector
 The move to allow banks to sell insurance products of multiple
companies will give a supplementary fee income for the banks
while increasing insurance penetration.
 Women’s bank
 Rs.44000 crores to be received as dividend from RBI,
nationalised banks and financial institutions which is 73% higher
than revised estimates last year.
 An additional tax deduction of Rs 100,000 on interest paid
towards home loans upto Rs 25 lakh availed in 2013-14 by first-
timehome buyers (over and above the existing Rs 150,000
deduction)

27. Sector wise impact analysis
 Power sector:
 Funding availability for the sector will improve with issuance of
tax-free bonds of Rs 500 billion and credit enhancement through
IIFCL.
 Customs duty on imported coal, which was previously exempt,
has been increased to 2 per cent, while CVD has been increased
by 1 per cent. Further, as per the Railway Budget 2013-14,
freight rates have been hiked by 5.8 per cent.
 Weak financials of the power distribution sector a pose a major
challenge. Accumulated losses of state distribution utilities are
estimated at around Rs 2.4 trillion in 2011-12, due to lack of
tariff hikes, high aggregate technical and commercial (AT&C)
losses and delays in disbursal of state government subsidies
 Incentives for renewable power sources: investment in wind
energy and capacity additions in solar power.

28. What’s there for Equity markets
 Equity Market
 reduction in Securities Transaction Tax (STT) [0.001% for mutual funds]
 Extension of Rajiv Gandhi Equity Savings Scheme (RGESS)
 50 per cent tax deduction for investment in mutual funds and listed
shares for three successive years
 allowing FIIs to participate in exchange-traded currency derivative
segment
 use their investment in corporate bonds/government securities for
margin requirement are expected to increase FII inflows in the markets
 pension funds and provident funds will now be allowed to invest in
exchange-traded funds, debt mutual funds and asset backed securities
 FII inflow should improve and there will be more investment options
for savings schemes

29. The way forward
 Combating the deficit
 Widening CAD:The only way to financethis is
through FII, FDI..
 Reform process has to continue
 We should pay heed to FDI(long term) flows than
to FII(short term)
 Pension Fund Regulatory and Development
Authority Bil(foreign investment ceiling to 26%)
 Insurance Laws (Amendment) Bill (increase
foreign equity cap to 45%)

30. The way forward
 Delay in project development:
 Speedy approval and avoiding bottlenecks for Projects:
1. Delays in approval
2. Land acquisition problems
3. permits on access to natural resources
Eg: realty project need nearly 58 approvals and takes 2 years
for the process
 Quality of government spending (Increasing plan
expenditure, well targeted subsidies effective execution of
welfare programmes)
 Timeline for the implementation of GST: Will make tax
administration effective, compliance easy and evasion
difficult.
