1 In our previous newsletter dated 25 th March 2015, we looked at the regulatory requirements for two fund platforms - Alternative Investment Funds and Mutual Funds, and compared the same with the structure of IFMR FImpact Investment Fund. In this newsletter, we provide an update on the key macroeconomic indicators as part of our Macroeconomic Dashboard on the Indian Economy. Internal Sector Highlights The combined index of Eight Core Industries, which comprise nearly 3 of the weight of items included in the Index of Industrial Production (IIP), stands at in February, This constitutes a year-onyear growth of 1., lowest since 16months. As per the revised (base= ) series of national accounts, the growth rate of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at market prices stood at 7.4 for Q3 of And the same is project to be at 7. for the year (advance estimates) Reserve Bank of India, in its bi-monthly policy meetings, reduced key rates under the liquidity adjustment facility by 25 basis points consecutively two times. Today, repo rate stands at 7. and reverse repo at 6. IIP for the month of January 2015 stood at 188.7, which is 2. higher as compared to the level in the same month of previous year Broad Money supply (M3) for (up to February 20, 2015) increased by 10. as compared to 13.1% during corresponding period of last year Annual Wholesale Price Inflation (WPI) for all commodities for the month of February 2015 decreased to (-) 2.1% from (-) 0. in January February 2015 marked the tenth consecutive month of decline in inflation, with WPI declining from 6. in May 2014 to -2.1% in February Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) (new base = 2012) for the month of February 2015 stood at 5. as compared to 5. in January 2015 All major inflation indices showed a decline in February 2015 with primary articles inflation at 1., fuel and power inflation at -14.7% and manufactured articles inflation at 0.3%. In primary articles, the largest decline was contributed by vegetables (month on month decline in prices of 12.1%), tea (month on month decline of -4.) and coffee (month on month decline of -1.3%). In the fuel and power segment, the largest decline was seen in light diesel oil (month on month decline of -16.), furnace oil (month on month decline of -14.), bitumen (month on month decline of -13.3%), and aviation turbine fuel (month on month decline of -12.9%). Primary articles and fuel/power contribute to 3 of the weight in WPI and acted as a significant drag for the overall index. The balance 6 of the index weight is contributed by manufactured products, where the year on year inflation has declined from 7.9% in February 2014 to 7.7% in February 2015.
2 Jan-12 Jan-12 Wholesale Price Inflation (Y o Y %) WPI - Primary Articles WPI - Manufactured Products WPI - Fuel,Power,Light & Lubricants WPI - Overall (RHS) Source: Office of Economic Affairs The Government of India has revised the base year for the calculation of consumer price index (CPI) from year 2010 to CPI as per revised series for the month of Feb 2015 stood at as compared to 11 corresponding month previous year. And year-on-year inflation rate for the month of Feb 2015 is 5. as compared to 5. in the month of Jan This increase is CPI is contributed by meat and fish (month on month increase in prices of 1.1%), spices (month on month increase in prices of 1.1%), fuel and light (month on month increase in prices of 1.), and pan and tobacco products (month on month increase in prices of 1.). Consumer Price Inflation (Y o Y %) Food,Beverages & Tobacco Housing Miscellaneous Fuel & Light Clothing,bedding,Footware CPI - General (RHS) Source: MOSPI Note: Due to non-availability of revised CPI data, we are producing old series data till Dec With both the wholesale and consumer price inflation on a decline for more than two quarters and being within the control, the RBI has slashed its key policy rates by fifty basis points. It is mentioned in recenet monetary policy statement that uncertainties surrounding any inflation projection are, however, not insignificant. Strenghtening of oil prices due to unanticipated geo-political events and aggregate demand relative to available capacity may alter the inflation outlook. Given the scenario, the RBI s first bi-monthly monetary policy statement, would

With new GDP series in place, India s GDP recorded the highest growth of 8. in second quarter of However, the quarter-on-quarter GDP growth declined to 7. in third quarter of (Overview of new series and methodology for GDP computation is discussed here) RBI's Repo Rate (%) Real GDP growth (% YoY) 9% 7% 3% 1% Repo Reverse Repo 9% 7% 3% 1% % % 6.73% 6.51% Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q Source: RBI (last date point March 27, 2015) Source: RBI Index of Industrial Production (IIP) for the month of January 2015 stood at 188.7, which is 2. higher as compared to the level of in month of January There has been month-on-month positive growth recorded by capital goods, consumer goods, and basic goods. However, intermediated goods declined by -1.3% in January 2015 over its previous month. Manufacturing operating conditions in India continued to improve in February 2015, but at weakest pace. HSBC s PMI for Indian manufacturing stood at 51.2 down from 52.9 in January This is due to softening of growth of output and new orders, as well as decline in the employment levels. (a reading of above 50 in the PMI indicates an expansion while a reading below 50 indicates decline in manufacturing activity).
