ECONOMY & BUSINESS

Fitch Ratings has lowered India’s 2023-24 GDP forecast to 6% from 6.2%Fitch Ratings has lowered India’s 2023-24 (i.e. Financial Year 2023-24 (FY24)) GDP (Gross Domestic Product) growth forecast to 6% from 6.2% of its earlier projection, amid increased inflation and interest rates along with subdued global demand.

• The projection for FY25 also decreased to 6.7% from 6.9% projected earlier.
• India’s FY24 growth will be slower than the 7% expected in FY23, as weak domestic and global demand is induced.

Highlights:
i.India’s long-term foreign-currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) is projected at ‘BBB-‘ with a stable outlook.

• This rating indicates that expectations of default risk are currently low and payment capacity to meet financial commitments is considered adequate, but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity.

ii.India’s headline inflation will decline, but remain near the upper end of the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) 2%-6% target band, averaging 5.8% in FY24 from 6.7% in FY23.

• Core inflation fell to 5.7% in March 2023, the lowest since July 2021.

iii.The 2022-23 current account deficit projection for India slashed to 2.3% of GDP from 3.3% in December 2022.

• It will narrow further to 1.9% deficit in 2023.

iv.The central government will meet its fiscal deficit target of 5.9% of GDP in 2023-24 from 6.4% in 2022.

• States deficits will rise from 2.7% of GDP estimated in FY23 to 2.8% of GDP in FY24.
• General government deficit (excluding divestments) will narrow to a still-high 8.8% of GDP in FY24 from 9.2% in FY23.

v.India’s general government debt remains elevated at 82.8% of GDP in FY23 and is likely to remain around 83% of GDP even in FY28.
vi.The private sector will show stronger investment growth as corporate and bank balance sheets are improving. However, risks still remain due to India’s low labour force participation rates and an uneven reform implementation record.
Note: India will be one of the fastest-growing nations bolstered by resilient investment prospects.
