Growth of India

India's economy grew at an annual rate of 5.3 % in the quarter ended March 2012, much lower than expectations of 6.1 %

The GDP numbers mean that the country’s growth slowed for eight successive quarters through the three months ended December 2012.

Agricultural sector of India

The farm sector, which is the single largest employer in the country but one of the lowest contributors to absolute GDP, grew at a measly 1.7 % against 7.5 % in the corresponding period last fiscal Poor agriculture growth means rural consumers would have less money to spend .

Manufacturing and services of India

• A key drag on growth numbers were the industry and services sectors -- both key drivers of growth -- which came in lower than expected, at 1.9 and 7.9 per cent against 7 and 10.6 per cent in the year-ago period. The manufacturing sector contracted (-) 0.3 per cent from 7.3 per cent in the same period last fiscal.

Weakest fiscal performance of India

India’s growth rose 6.5% in the fiscal year to the end of March 2012. This is the lowest growth rate since 2002-03 when it fell to 4% in the wake of a global slowdown. It is also a sharp slowdown from the previous fiscal’s 8.4 %.

RBI cannot stimulate the economy eitherA sharp 25 per cent drop in the rupee over the past 9 months

could hurt RBI’s ability to cut interest rates because doing so could increase inflationary pressure. There can be no growth stimulus from RBI through a lower borrowing cost as it battles stubbornly high inflation.
