Economy to grow at 7.1% in 2008-09

10 Feb 2009, 0233 hrs IST, TNN
NEW DELHI: Indian economy is holding its head high amid a global doom. In the current financial year (2008-09), the country's economy is expected to
grow at 7.1%, according to data released by the Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) on Monday, the second highest in the world, only next to China. However, the figure will be two percentage points lower than 9.1% achieved in the last fiscal (2007-08). For the last three consecutive years, the country had recorded a growth of 9% and above. Due to strong growth in the last five years, the average income

of an Indian has more than doubled to Rs 38,084 in 2008-09, from Rs 18,885 in 2002-03. Despite the depreciation of rupee in the last six months against dollar, the size of the economy (GDP) will be more than $1 trillion (Rs 54,26,277 crore at market price) in the current financial year. In 2007-08 also, the gross domestic product (GDP) of the country was more than $1 trillion (Rs 47,23,400 crore at market price) as the exchange rate was around Rs 40 per dollar. But as rupee depreciated to around 49 in the second half of current financial year, the economy shrank below $1 trillion. Recently, Prime Minister's advisory council had also predicted the GDP to grow at 7.1% in the current financial year. "There is room for optimism. That is what the GDP numbers indicate," finance secretary Arun Ramanathan said. The CSO figure suggests farm and construction sectors growth to moderate at 2.6% and 6.5% in 2008-09, respectively. While manufacturing growth will come down to 4.1% from 8.2% last year, financing, insurance, real estate, services will moderate to 8.6% from 11.7% in 2007-08. However, Ramanathan and Planning Commission deputy chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia discounted speculation over another stimulus package before the general elections. "We can continue the fiscal stimulus in the next year. It can be done as part of the full Budget. In my view there will be a continuing need for fiscal stimulus and I hope we can do that," Ahluwalia said. In 2008-09, the growth is mainly fuelled by government expenditure. According to the data, while the private expenditure grew only 6.8%, that of government increased by over 16%. Therefore, economist DK Joshi of Crisil said that government expenditure will mainly support the growth. And RBI may consider further cut in key rates, considering fall in growth of manufacturing, financial services and the farm sector. PM's economic advisory council chairman Suresh Tendulkar, while projecting a similar GDP growth, had said last month that RBI may consider cutting the repo rate, after the vote-on-account on February 16.
