India – independent country report from the Economist Intelligence Unit
India’s strong fundamentals—high savings and investment rates, rapid workforce growth and a quickly expanding middle class—will continue to boost economic growth. However, a shortage of skilled labour, infrastructure bottlenecks and the difficulties involved in moving from low-productivity agriculture to high-productivity manufacturing will constrain GDP expansion. What does this mean for India?

Market Review
Indian equities rose in April on hopes that easing price pressures will spur policymakers to further loosen monetary policy. At the time of writing, the central bank cut its benchmark repo rate by 25 basis points to 7.25%.
The current account deficit rose to a record in the December-quarter. The local car market contracted in the year to March as high borrowing costs and fuel prices dampened demand. Manufacturers responded by cutting production and tapping the
Portfolio review
In April, we continued to build our position in cement maker ACC.
In portfolio-related news, Anglo-Dutch company Unilever made an offer to increase its stake in our holding Hindustan Unilever to 75% in a deal worth US$5.4 billion. Separately, the local subsidiary reported solid full-year sales and earnings, with all segments delivering good operating profits. Healthy domestic and Indonesian revenues bolstered Godrej Consumer Products’s final quarter, while robust loan growth boosted ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank. Tata Consultancy Services’s full-year net earnings grew 34%, whereas Infosys reported a more modest expansion of 8% as it continued to restructure its business to regain growth momentum. Meanwhile, the economic slowdown affected March quarterend sales for Hero MotoCorp, Castrol India and UltraTech Cement.
Outlook
Looking ahead, the domestic manufacturing and services sectors are likely to lose momentum, as foreshadowed by their respective purchasing managers’ indices. However, any hopes of further interest rate cuts have been dashed by the Reserve Bank of India’s warning of resurgent inflationary pressures. The government’s commitment to carry through its reform drive has become an economic imperative, as much to revive faltering growth as it is to reassure investors.
