The project report is entitled "Relationship of Inflation with Indian Stock Market" and was carried out under the supervision of Kangan Jain. The certificate confirms that the report has not been submitted for any other degree or diploma.
Inflation reduces the value of money over time. High inflation negatively impacts the stock market and economy. When inflation is high, stock prices tend to decrease as company expenses rise and profits fall. Investors also demand higher returns during periods of high inflation. However, moderate inflation of 3-5% is generally considered healthy for economic growth. To beat inflation, investors should emphasize growth equity investments that pay dividends and avoid long-term fixed income. Commodities, real estate, and inflation-indexed bonds also tend to perform well during inflationary periods. Maintaining a balanced investment portfolio is key to mitigating inflation's effects.
Inflation and its trends in indian economyNihar Routray
This document discusses inflation in the Indian economy. It lists the team members and objective to study causes and effects of inflation trends in India. It defines inflation as a rise in general prices and fall in money value. The types of inflation include creeping, trotting, galloping, and hyper. Causes include rises in crude oil and food prices, GDP, and wages. Measuring inflation includes wholesale price indices. Effects are hoarding, risks, consumption impacts. Curbing inflation involves strengthening currency, interest rate hikes, and fiscal policies. Recent inflation is attributed to food and commodity prices. References are also provided.
This document discusses disequilibrium in a country's balance of payments. It defines balance of payments equilibrium as equal demand and supply of foreign currency in a period. Disequilibrium occurs when there is a surplus or deficit, meaning exports are greater or less than imports respectively. The document then discusses various causes of disequilibrium including economic, natural, political, and social factors. It outlines different types of economic disequilibrium and provides examples. Finally, it discusses automatic and deliberate measures countries take to correct disequilibrium, such as monetary, trade, and miscellaneous policy actions aimed at increasing exports and decreasing imports.
The rupee was historically linked to the British pound and U.S. dollar within the IMF system of fixed exchange rates. India devalued the rupee for the first time in 1949 by 30.5%, and again in 1966 by 36.5%, to reduce its value against foreign currencies. Major devaluations also occurred in 1991 due to balance of payments issues, liberal import policies, and the Gulf War, causing the rupee to lose value against the dollar on open markets. Devaluation aims to make exports cheaper and imports more expensive, boosting exports and the tourism industry but also increasing domestic inflation through higher import prices. However, devaluation does not always effectively boost exports depending on demand elasticity and ability to substitute imports
The document summarizes the Make in India campaign launched by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in September 2015. The campaign aims to transform India into a global manufacturing hub and focuses on 25 sectors to boost job creation, skill development, GDP growth, and tax revenue. It promotes manufacturing, exports over imports, and development of small/medium enterprises and public sectors. The campaign has received positive responses from major companies which have announced investments in expanding operations and building new manufacturing plants in India. If successfully implemented, Make in India is expected to substantially increase India's economic growth and global competitiveness.
The document discusses the key factors that influence exchange rates between the Indian rupee and US dollar over time. It outlines the historical devaluations of the rupee from 1947 onwards due to wars, inflation, and economic liberalization that required foreign currency reserves. Exchange rates are determined by market forces since 1993 and are influenced by interest rates, trade balances, money supply, inflation, economic growth, foreign debt levels, and short-term factors like central bank interventions and capital flows. Understanding these influences is crucial for assessing financial and economic developments.

The document discusses the recent depreciation of the Indian rupee against the US dollar. It notes that the rupee has fallen close to 22% against the dollar in the past year. Several factors are contributing to the rupee's decline, including a high current account deficit, lack of foreign investment, global economic uncertainties, and domestic political issues. The depreciating rupee increases costs for imports and foreign education/travel, fueling inflation. While exporters may benefit initially, a weak rupee ultimately hurts the broader economy. Policy reforms and increased foreign investment are suggested to stabilize the currency.

The document discusses devaluation of currency, which is when a country's currency decreases in value compared to other currencies. It provides reasons for devaluation, such as improving trade balance and competitiveness. There are two types of devaluation: planned devaluation initiated by governments and market-driven devaluation caused by currency crises. Effects of devaluation include boosting exports, reducing imports, expanding output and employment, and alleviating balance of payments difficulties. Two examples of India's devaluations are provided in 1966 due to a current account deficit and inflation, and in 1991 due to a trade deficit, current account deficit, and depleting foreign reserves.
Indian Foreign Exchange Market & Rupee Exchange RateKirk Coutinho
The document discusses India's foreign exchange market and the rupee exchange rate. It provides background on exchange rates, defines currency appreciation and depreciation, and outlines the key players in India's foreign exchange market like commercial banks and central banks. It also examines the factors that influence exchange rates, like inflation differentials and interest rates. The document notes that while currency depreciation hurts importers, it can benefit exporters. Finally, it shares recent exchange rates between the rupee and dollar, pound, euro and yen over a five day period.
Global Financial Crisis And Its Impact On The Indian EconomyShradha Diwan
The document discusses the global financial crisis and its impact on the Indian economy. It provides background on how the crisis began in the US due to risky lending practices and how it spread globally. While many countries experienced economic downturns, India was less impacted due to its strong domestic savings and investment rates. The Indian government and central bank implemented stimulus measures to support the economy. Overall, India appeared to be in a better position than other nations to weather the financial crisis.
India has transitioned through different exchange rate systems over time. Originally under a fixed exchange rate system tied to the British pound sterling from 1947-1971, India then adopted a pegged exchange rate system from 1971-1992 where the rupee was linked first to the pound sterling and later a basket of currencies. India faced a balance of payments crisis in 1991 which led it to adopt a market-determined floating exchange rate system starting in 1992 called the Liberalized Exchange Rate Management System. Under this hybrid system the rupee became partially convertible and exchange rates were determined by market forces. India has since moved towards full capital account convertibility.
Indian Economy at the eve of Independence. Aaditya Pandey
Under British colonial rule, the Indian economy experienced significant underdevelopment and stagnation. Agriculture was the primary occupation but was inefficient due to the colonial land revenue system and lack of infrastructure. The industrial sector declined as the British pursued a policy of de-industrialization, destroying India's handicraft industry. India primarily exported raw materials and imported finished British goods, leading to a large trade surplus that drained the Indian economy. Overall economic growth was less than 2% annually and per capita income growth was half a percent. Infrastructure like railways and ports was developed mainly to benefit British interests rather than support Indian development.
This presentation is about the devaluation of Indian currency with all major concepts and issues regarding devaluation discussed in it. Basically, Devaluation refers to a reduction in the external value of a currency in terms of other currencies. Here we are particularly talking about the Devaluation of Indian Currency (Rupee) against Foreign Currency(Dollar). Refer to the slides for further details.
The document discusses recession, its causes and effects. It defines recession as a phase of the business cycle where total investment, income, employment and demand declines in a cumulative process. This leads to higher production but lower demand, resulting in falling prices. Key aspects discussed include:
- The business cycle and its phases of expansion, recession, contraction and recovery.
- Various economic downturns experienced globally like the Great Depression and recent recessions in the US, Mexico, East Asia, Russia and India.
- John Maynard Keynes' theory of effective demand and how government spending can increase demand and revive the economy.
- Differences between recession, depression and economic slowdown.
- Causes of the
The document discusses the devaluation of the Pakistani rupee and its effects on the economy. It notes that the rupee lost about 30% of its value against the US dollar since 2008, hurting economic growth across sectors like agriculture, manufacturing, and IT. Devaluation increases the costs of imports and inflation while reducing the competitiveness of local industries. It can also increase the cost of external debt repayment, potentially leading Pakistan to seek more IMF loans. The document outlines several reasons for the rupee's devaluation and predicts continued instability and low GDP growth for Pakistan's economy in 2013.
This document discusses foreign exchange and exchange rates. It defines foreign exchange as currencies other than a country's domestic currency used in international trade. Exchange rates are the prices of currencies expressed in terms of other currencies and can fluctuate based on supply and demand. The document outlines factors that influence exchange rates and why foreign exchange is needed for international trade. It also defines and compares different exchange rate systems and discusses how exchange rates are determined in currency markets through the interaction of demand and supply of foreign currencies.
The Indian rupee hit an all-time low against the US dollar due to a large trade deficit caused by higher imports than exports. India also has a high current account deficit due to uncertainty over economic reforms and a slowing economy. As a result, demand for dollars is increasing from importers and investors seeking to move money out of India, while dollar inflows are decreasing. The falling rupee is negatively impacting companies with foreign debt but benefiting export sectors. The rupee's value will ultimately stabilize once inflation is brought under control.
A disequilibrium in the balance of payments (BOP) refers to a surplus or deficit. A surplus occurs when total receipts exceed total payments, while a deficit happens when total payments are greater than total receipts. The BOP can be favorable or unfavorable depending on whether credits are greater or less than debits. Causes of disequilibrium include temporary factors, changes in national income, inflation, economic development stage, borrowing and lending amounts, exchange rate fluctuations, and political instability. There are also different types of disequilibrium such as cyclical, structural, short-run, and long-run. Too much disequilibrium can negatively impact a country's growth and competitiveness.

impact of globalisation on indian economyVidya Sri
Globalization has had a largely positive impact on the Indian economy, especially the service sector. The service sector is a major contributor to both employment and national income in India. India's exports of services have grown rapidly, with the country becoming one of the top five exporters of services among developing countries. However, globalization has also had some negative effects, lowering farmers' incomes and increasing rural debt. While economic growth has increased, the benefits have not always been inclusive and the agricultural sector has faced challenges. Overall, India has progressed significantly but continuing reforms are needed to further develop its economy under globalization.
The document compares the Indian rupee and U.S. dollar, discusses reasons for the rupee's depreciation against the dollar such as widening current account deficit and withdrawal of foreign investors, and effects of rupee depreciation like increased import costs and inflation. It also outlines steps that can be taken for rupee appreciation, including increasing exports, reducing imports, promoting tourism, and raising awareness among people to use domestic products and public transport.
Monetary policy involves regulating money supply and interest rates to achieve macroeconomic stability goals like low inflation and unemployment. The central bank determines monetary policy using tools that expand or contract the money supply. Expanding money supply and lowering rates stimulates demand during recessions, while contracting money and raising rates curbs demand to control inflation. Measuring indicators like money supply, inflation rates, and interest rates helps central banks determine appropriate monetary policy decisions.

Monetary policy is used by central banks to regulate money supply and interest rates to achieve macroeconomic goals like price stability and growth. It works by expanding money supply and lowering rates to boost aggregate demand during recessions, and contracting money supply or raising rates to curb spending and inflation during booms. The Reserve Bank of India implements monetary policy through tools that influence money supply, credit conditions, and interest rates in order to maintain price stability and economic growth.

Monetary policy determines the supply and availability of money in an economy in order to achieve objectives like economic growth and price stability. It is implemented by central banks and involves managing interest rates and the money supply. When the economy is slowing, monetary policy aims to increase the money supply and lower rates to boost aggregate demand. When inflation is high, it seeks to tighten the money supply or raise rates to reduce aggregate spending. The goals are macroeconomic stability with low unemployment and inflation alongside steady growth.
1) The document analyzes macroeconomic variables like interest rates, exchange rates, money supply, inflation expectations, GDP, and inflation in China, India, Vietnam, and Indonesia from 2000 to 2017 to determine leading indicators of economic stability.
2) The ARDL panel analysis shows that leading indicators of controlling economic stability differ across countries. For India it is interest rates, exchange rates, money supply, inflation expectations, and GDP. For Vietnam it is interest rates, money supply, and GDP. For Indonesia it is interest rates and money supply, and for China it is money supply.
3) The analysis finds that money supply has a significant effect on inflation in the panel as a whole, but results vary by country

Comparative Longitudinal Analysis on Global Inflation with a special emphasis...Ram Sharma
https://zenodo.org/record/7939068#.ZGQTS_dX6Ef
This is the presentation for the research “Comparative Longitudinal Analysis on Global Inflation with a special emphasis on Indian Economy” presented at the Second International Conference at the Daly College of Business Management, DAVV Indore.
The research was further published in its peer to peer reviewed conference journal.
The economic fluctuations in Indian housing markets have been time and again proved to be led by inflation (Granger Cause) (Richa Pandey & V. Mary Jessica, 2020).
The purpose of this study is to perform a comparative longitudinal analysis on Global Inflation with a special emphasis on Indian Economy.
The study aims to observe the positive cause-effect relationship between the rise of money supply and circulation in the economy and the succeeding rise in housing prices.
As Gregory Wolfe theorised, “The inflation of our time is intimately connected with some of its most obdurate ideas, forces, postulates, and institutions and can be overcome only by influencing these profound causes and conditions. It is not just a disorder of the monetary system which can be left to financial experts to redress, it is a moral disease, a disorder of society. This inflation, too, belongs to the things which can be understood and remedied only in the area beyond supply and demand.”
Friedman’s permanent income hypothesis suggests that people would change their desired consumption if changes in housing prices affect their expected lifetime wealth. Moreover, an inflationary housing market can be termed essentially, as one of the most major contributors to a nation’s overall inflation (Jared Bernstein, Ernie Tedeschi, and Sarah Robinson, 2021).
A comparative longitudinal analysis on inflation can provide significant insights into the evolution of prices over time. By comparing inflation rates across different countries, researchers can identify patterns and commonalities that can help explain the underlying causes of inflation.
Additionally, by looking at inflation over a long period of time, this research can help economists, administrators and businesses in identifying periods of high and low inflation to investigate the factors that may have contributed to these changes. In general, inflation is defined as a sustained increase in the price level of goods and services in an economy.
Over time, inflation can erode the purchasing power of a currency, as prices for goods and services rise faster than the currency’s value. There are a variety of factors that can contribute to inflation, including increases in the cost of production, changes in monetary policy, and demand-side pressures.
https://zenodo.org/record/7942937#.ZGQQyPdX6Ed
This document discusses inflation, including its definition, types, theories, causes, and impact in India. Inflation is defined as a rise in general price levels over time. The main causes of inflation are an increase in demand for goods/services and a decrease in supply. There are two theories of inflation - demand-pull (excess demand) and cost-push (rising costs). Factors that can cause inflation include increased money supply, disposable income, deficit financing, and foreign exchange reserves on the demand side, and rising administered prices, erratic agriculture, price policies, and inadequate industry on the supply side. Measures to control inflation focus on underlying causes and include investment, interest rate adjustments, demonetization, fiscal
This document discusses inflation in India, including its causes and effects. It provides definitions of inflation and deflation, and shows India's inflation rates from 1950-2011. Inflation is problematic as it redistributes wealth and income in unequal ways. The main causes of inflation in India are an increase in the money supply, higher disposable income, deficit financing, agricultural price policies, and inadequate industrial growth. Controlling inflation requires focusing on its underlying drivers, such as reducing demand if demand-pull inflation is the issue. Recommended measures include fiscal consolidation, prioritizing infrastructure to support growth, and ensuring food supply stability.
The document discusses various aspects of inflation including its definition, causes, effects, and methods to control it. It defines inflation as a general rise in price levels and discusses how it is measured using indices like the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Wholesale Price Index (WPI). The types and causes of inflation are also outlined, along with its negative effects on the economy like uncertainty and reduced purchasing power. Finally, the document lists several monetary, fiscal and other measures that can be used to control inflation, such as credit control, increasing taxes, and boosting production.
This document discusses inflation in India, including defining different types of inflation rates and causes of inflation. It outlines how inflation is measured in India using the Wholesale Price Index and Consumer Price Index. The document then analyzes current factors contributing to low inflation rates in India, such as falling international crude oil prices and lower food price increases. It also discusses potential consequences and sustainability issues regarding India's recent achievement of near-zero inflation rates.
This document discusses inflation, including its definition, causes, effects, and measures to control it. It defines inflation as a sustained increase in prices or fall in the value of money. Inflation can be caused by increases in demand (demand-pull) or costs of production (cost-push). It affects economies through reduced purchasing power, income redistribution, and uncertainty. Measures used to control inflation include monetary policy, fiscal policy, price controls, and supply-side policies. The document also discusses inflation trends and measures taken in Tanzania, such as increasing interest rates and reducing government spending and subsidies.
This document summarizes the key aspects of monetary policy in Bangladesh. It discusses how the central bank uses interest rates and money supply to influence inflation. However, monetary policy faces limitations in Bangladesh due to imperfect markets and the economy's reliance on imports. The transmission of interest rate changes is also weak as banks determine rates collusively. While price stability is ideal, monetary policy alone has limited impact on inflation in Bangladesh given global price influences and excess bank liquidity reducing the central bank's policy instruments.
The document discusses inflation in India, including its types, causes, measurement, and current trends. It provides details on key inflation indices like the wholesale price index and consumer price index. Recent inflation in India has fallen towards zero inflation due to several factors: a large drop in international crude oil prices, stagnant food prices, compressed demand from lower rural wages and spending, and tight monetary policy from the RBI. However, the document notes this decline may not be sustainable as the key drivers of falling prices are volatile and outside monetary policy control.
This document defines inflation and discusses its types, causes, measurement, economic impacts, and measures to control it. It defines inflation as a sustained increase in the general price level over time. The three main types of inflation discussed are creeping inflation (under 5%), running inflation (8-10%), and hyperinflation (double or triple digit increases). The causes of inflation discussed include demand-pull factors like excess money supply, and cost-push factors like increases in production costs. Inflation is typically measured using wholesale price indices and consumer price indices. The economic impacts discussed include effects on income distribution and wealth, and changes to production patterns. Measures to control inflation discussed include monetary policies like interest rate increases and fiscal policies like tax

The document discusses inflation and recession. It defines inflation as a general rise in prices over time, and notes its causes can include excess money supply, rapid bank credit expansion, and deficit financing. It also defines recession as a period of declining economic activity for at least two quarters. The impacts of inflation and recession discussed include increased costs of living, income inequality, and rising unemployment respectively. The document also outlines some government measures that can be taken to control inflation and help overcome recession, such as interest rate adjustments, import liberalization, and stimulus spending.
This document analyzes the relationship between inflation and economic growth in Bangladesh from 1980 to 2014. It finds that inflation has negatively impacted growth when inflation rates are very high, such as over 20%. However, moderate inflation rates between 3-8% appear correlated with higher economic growth of around 5-6%. The relationship between inflation and growth is non-linear, with inflation potentially stimulating growth up to a certain threshold, after which high inflation hinders growth. Understanding this relationship is important for Bangladesh's central bank in conducting monetary policy.

ABSTRACT
The relationship between stock prices and inflation has been subjected to
extensive research in the past decades and has arouse the interests of
researchers, academics, practitioners and policy makers globally,
particularly since the 1990s. This research paper tries to examine the
relationship of inflation with Indian stock market and also what impact
inflation leave on Indian Stock Market. Further this research paper attempt
to investigate to what extent inflation affects stock market. For this purpose,
some stock indexes are selected to see the effect of inflation. These indexes
are BSE SENSEX, NSE NIFTY,BANK NIFTY, and BSE FMCG. In our
research, the inflation data is taken according to CPI (consumer price index).
The statistical has used in this research to do the analysis based on yearly
to find out the relationship between inflation and stock market.

INFLATION
Inflation can be defined as a rise in the general price level and therefore a
fall in the value of money. Rate at which the general level of prices for goods
and services keep on rising, and leads to subsequent fall in purchasing
power of the currency, is often referred to as inflation. So, when inflation
rises, every Rupee spent by us would buy a smaller Quantity of goods and/or
services. Central banks i.e. Reserve Bank in case of India, therefore
attempts to stop severity of inflation.
Modern Economy is money-based economy. Success of Morden business
is determined by Wealth creation. In the set of productive business resources
described as 5Ms: Man power, Material, Machine power, Management,
Money; Money power is regarded is more important for the business
adventure. Finance matter the most.
“The word inflation in the broadest possible sense refers to any increase in
the general price-level which is sustained and non-seasonal in character”
-Peterson.
7. 7 | P a g e
Types of inflation
1) Moderate
2) Galloping
3) Hyper Inflation
1) Moderate inflation: It is mild and tolerable form of inflation. It occurs
when prices are rises slowly. When the rate of inflation is less than
10% annually or it is a single digit annual inflation rate, it is considered
to be a moderate inflation in present day economy.
Characteristics of moderate inflation
a) There is single digit inflation rate annually.
b) It does not disturb economy balance.
c) It reagreed as a stable inflation in which the relative price do not get
far out of line.
d) People’s expectation remains more or less stable under moderate
inflation.
e) Under a low inflation rate, the real interest rate is not too low or
negative. So, money can serve its role as a store of value without
difficulty.
f) There are modest inefficiency associates with moderate inflation.
Economist have arbitrarily laid down that a 3-4% per annum is tolerable
rate of inflation in modern economies. Even Chakravarty Report 1985 of RBI
has accepted 4% of inflation annually to be an efficient a tolerable norm for
the Indian economy
2) Running & Galloping inflation: When movement of price accelerate
rapidly, running inflation emerges. Running inflation may record more
than 100% rise in prices over a decade. Thus, when prices rise more
than 10% a year, running inflation occurs.
Economist have not described range of running inflation. But we may
say that a double-digit inflation of 10-20% per annum is a running
inflation. If it exceeds that figure it may be called ‘Galloping inflation’.
8. 8 | P a g e
According to Samuelson, when prices are rising at double- or triple-
digit rate of 20, 100, 200 percent in a year the situation may be describe
as Galloping inflation.
Indian economy has witnessed a sort of running and Galloping inflation
to some extent (not exceeding 25% per annum) during the planning
era, since the 2nd
plan period.
3) Hyperinflation: In the case of hyperinflation, Prices rise every
movement and there is no limit to the height to which prices might rise.
There for it if difficult to measure its magnitude, as prices rise by fits
and starts.
In quantitative terms, when pieces rise over thousand percent in a
year, it is called a hyperinflation, Austria, Germany, Hungry, Poland,
Russia witnessed hyper inflation in the wake of world war I.
The most recent example of hyperinflation, Zimbabwe’s currency woes
hit a peak in November 2008, reaching a monthly inflation rate of
approximately 79 billion percent, according to the Cato Institute.
The main features of hyper-inflation are:
a) During hyperinflation, the price rise is severe. The price index
moves up by leaps and bounds. It is over 1000% per year. There is
at least 50% price rise in a month.
b) It represents the most pathetic deterioration in people’s purchasing
power.
c) It is apparently generated by a massive fiscal dislocation.
d) Hyper inflation is a monetary disease.
e) Structure of relative prices of goods become highly unstable.
f) Overall economic distortions take place.
9. 9 | P a g e
Causes of Inflation
Inflation occurs when the amount of buying power is higher than the output
of goods and services. There are two major possible causes of inflation. First
one is Demand-pull element and the second one that cost-push element as
an important cause of inflation.
1) Demand-pull Inflation: when the economy is at or close to full
employment, then an increase in aggregate demand leads to an
increase in the price level. As firms reach full capacity, they respond
by putting up prices leading to inflation. Also, near full employment with
labour shortages, workers can get higher wages which increase their
spending power.
Example: In the 1980s, the UK experienced rapid economic growth.
The government cut interest rates and also cut taxes. House prices
rose by up to 30% – fuelling a positive wealth effect and a rise in
consumer confidence. This increased confidence led to higher
spending, lower saving and an increase in borrowing. However, the
rate of economic growth reached 5% a year – well above the UK’s
long-run trend rate of 2.5 %. The result was a rise in inflation as firms
could not meet demand. It also led to a current account deficit.
Some causes that sudden increase the demand
a) Increase in public expenditure: There may be increase in in public
expenditure in excess of public revenue. This might have been
made possible through public borrowing from bank or through deficit
financing which Implies an increase in the money supply that’s lead
to increase in demand than supply.
b) Increase in investment: There may be an increase in the
autonomous investment in firm, which is excess of current saving in
the economy. Hence the flow of total expenditure tends to rise,
10. 10 | P a g e
causing an excess monetary demand, leading to an upward
pressure on prices.
c) Increase in MPC: There may be an increase in marginal propensity
to consume (MPC), causing the excess monetary demand. This
could be due to the operation of demonstration effect and such other
reason.
d) Increase in export and surplus balance of payments: In an open
economy, an increasing surplus in the balance of payment also
leads to an excess demand. Increasing export also have an
inflammatory impact because there is generation of money income
in the home economy due to export earning, but simultaneously,
there is reduction in the domestic supply of goods due to export. If
an export surplus is not balanced by increasing saving, or through
taxation, domestic spending will be in excess of the value of
domestic output, marketed at current price.
e) Diversification of resources: Diversification of resources from the
consumption goods sector to either capital goods sector or military
goods sector will lead to an infantry pressure because while the
generation of income and expenditure remain continue, the current
flow of real output decreases on account of high gestation period
involve in this sector.
f) Role of Black Money: In India there is a huge accumulation of
unaccountable money. A large part of unaccountable money use in
buying and selling of Real estate in urban areas, extensive hording
and black marketing in many essential goods.
2) Cost-push Inflation: Cost-push inflation occurs when overall prices
increase due to increases in the cost of factor of production. Higher
costs of production can decrease the aggregate supply in the
economy. Since the demand for goods hasn't changed, the price
11. 11 | P a g e
increases from production are passed onto consumers creating cost-
push inflation.
Example: Cost-push inflation occurred in the 1970s oil market. The
price of oil is controlled by an intergovernmental body known as
OPEC—the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. In the
Seventies, OPEC imposed higher prices on the oil market; however,
demand had not increased. While the increased oil prices produced
strong profit margins for producers in the short run, it increased
production costs in all sectors of the economy that relied on oil. This
impacted many elements of the economy are touched by the oil
market, from transportation to construction to plastics, resulting in
inflationary pressure on the prices of goods and services as a result
of OPEC’s decision.
Some causes that sudden increase the cost
a) Rising wages: If trades unions can present a united front then they
can bargain for higher wages. Rising wages are a key cause of cost-
push inflation because wages are the most significant cost for many
firms. (higher wages may also contribute to rising demand)
b) Import prices: So many goods are imported in the India. If there is a
devaluation, then import prices will become more expensive leading
to an increase in inflation. A devaluation/depreciation means the
Rupees is worth less. Therefore, we have to pay more to buy the
same imported goods.
c) Raw material prices: The best example is the price of oil. If the oil
price increase by 20% then this will have a significant impact on
most goods in the economy and this will lead to cost-push inflation.
E.g., in 1974 there was a spike in the price of oil causing a period
of high inflation around the world.
12. 12 | P a g e
d) Profit push inflation: When firms push up prices to get higher rates
of inflation. This is more likely to occur during strong economic
growth.
e) Declining productivity: If firms become less productive and allow
costs to rise, this invariably leads to higher prices.
f) Higher taxes: If the government put up taxes, such as VAT and
Excise duty, this will lead to higher prices, and therefore CPI will
increase. However, these tax rises are likely to be one-off increases.
There is even a measure of inflation (CPI-CT) which ignores the
effect of temporary tax rises/decreases.
13. 13 | P a g e
Effects of Inflation
Inflation has dire socio-economic consequences. As such, inflation has been
taken to be a serious social and economic problem. US Presidents Ford and
Carter have considered inflation as "public enemy number one.
The effects of inflation on the economic system classified into three kinds
• Effects on production, that is changes in the tempo of economic
activity.
• Effects on income distribution, that is, redistribution of income and
wealth.
• Effects on consumption and welfare.
1) Effects on Production: - Moderate rise in prices, that is, a mild
inflation or creeping inflation, as it may be called, has a favourable
effect on production when there are unutilised or underemployed
resources in existence in an economy. Rising prices breed optimistic
expectations within the business community in view of increasing profit
margins, because the price level moves up at a faster rate than the
cost of production. Businessmen are induced to invest more, and as a
result, employment, output and income increase. The tempo of
economic activity starts rising. But there is a limit to it, this limit is set
by the full employment ceiling. Once the full employment stage is
reached in the economy, a further rise in prices will not stimulate
production, employment and real income, due to physical limitations.
Therefore, till the level of full employment is reached, moderately rising
prices, though otherwise harmful, are also beneficial. The beneficial
effect on production, however, is possible only when inflation does not
take place at too fast a rate. A state of running of galloping inflation
creates uncertainty, which is inimical to production. Thus, when
inflation has reached an advanced stage, its brighter aspects
disappear and the evil aspects manifest themselves.
a) Hindrance to capital accumulation: - Capital accumulation is hindered
by uncontrolled inflation, and the savings potentiality of the community
also declines due to the diminishing purchasing power of money.
14. 14 | P a g e
b) Hoarding and black-marketing: - During inflation, when prices are
rapidly rising, the holding of larger stocks of goods becomes very
profitable. Hoarding is encouraged, which further decreases the
available supply of goods in relation to increasing monetary demand.
Eventually, the phenomena of black-marketing and spiralling inflation
develop.
c) Distortion of production pattern. Inflation not only adversely affects the
volume of production but also changes its pattern. Generally,
resources are diverted from the production of essential goods to those
of non-essential because the rich, whose incomes increase more
rapidly. make their demand for luxury goods felt in the market.
Production of undesirable lines is, therefore stimulated and finally
results in the breakdown of the economic system.
d) Disincentive effects due to income tax bracket creep: - During inflation,
with the rise in money incomes of the individuals under progressive
income tax system, the effective tax rate will rise (called Income tax
Bracket Creep'). This may cause a disincentive effect on willingness to
work, save and invest, thus, discouraging productive activity.
2) Distributional Effects: - Inflation redistributes income, because prices
of all factors do not rise in the same proportion. Since the effect of
inflation on the income of different classes of earners varies, there are
serious social consequences. During inflation, the distributive share
accruing to the profiteers increases more than that of wage earners or
fixed-income earners, such as the rentier class. All producers, traders
and speculators gain during an inflation because of the windfall profits
which arise, because prices rise at a faster and higher rate than the
cost of production; wages, interest and rent do not increase rapidly,
and are more or less fixed. Changes in the value of money also cause
redistribution of wealth, partly because, (a) during inflation, there is no
uniform price rise; prices of some types of goods change more than
others, and (b) debts are expressed in terms of money. Inflation is a
sort of hidden tax, steeply regressive in effect. The redistribution of
wealth due to inflation is a burden on those groups of people we are
least able to bear it.
15. 15 | P a g e
A) Debtors and creditors: - Debtors generally gain and creditors lose
during an inflation in accrues to a debtor because he repays loans at a
time when the purchasing power of money lower than when it was
borrowed. The creditor, on the other hand, is a loser during inflation,
since he receives, in effect, less in goods and services than he would
have received in times of low prices.
B) Business community: - Inflation is beneficial for entrepreneurs and
businessmen because they stand to profit by rising prices. They find
that the value of their inventories and stock of goods is rising in money
terms. They also find that prices are rising faster than the costs of
production, so that their profit margin is greatly enhanced. The
business community, therefore, gets supernormal profits during period
of inflation, and those profits continue to increase as long as price rise.
C) Fixed income groups: - Inflation hits wage-earners and salaried people
very hard. Although wage-earners, by the grace of trade unions, can
chase galloping prices, they seldom win the race. Since wages do not
rise at the same rate, and at the same time as the general price level,
the cost of living index rises, and the real income of the wage-earner
decreases. Moreover, in trying to push up wages to sustain their real
income, wage-earners bring about a cost-push inflation, and in the
process worsen their position.
D) Investors: - Those who invest in debentures and fixed-interest bearing
securities, bonds, etc., lose during inflation. However, investors in
equities benefit because more dividend is yielded on account of high
profits made by joint-stock companies during inflation.
E) Farmers: - Farmers usually gain during an inflation, because they can
get better prices for their harvest during inflation.
16. 16 | P a g e
We may conclude that inflation redistributes income and wealth in favour of
businessmen, debtors and farmers but hits consumers, creditors, small
investors, labour class, middle class and fixed-income groups very hard.
Inflation favours one group at the expense of another. Besides, it is always
regressive in effect, that is, it hits hard all those who cannot protect
themselves.
3) Effects on Consumption and Welfare: - Inflation implies an erosion of
the consumer's value of money. It is a form of taxation. Due to
deteriorating purchasing power, the real consumption of the common
people declines. Rising cost of living during inflation implies falling
standard of living and lowering of general economic welfare of the
community at large.
17. 17 | P a g e
Comparison between Inflation and GDP to see its
impact on an economy
We have used CPI inflation rate in below comparison.
Gross domestic product (GDP), Total market value of the goods and
services produced by a country’s economy during a specified period of time.
It includes all final goods and services—that is, those that are produced by
the economic agents located in that country regardless of their ownership
and that are not resold in any form. It is used throughout the world as the
main measure of output and economic activity. Over time, the growth in GDP
causes inflation. This is because, all over the world where inflation is
increasing, people will spend more money because they know that it will be
less valuable in the future. This causes further increases in GDP in the short
term, bringing about further price increases. Also, the effects of inflation are
not linear.
If inflation is indeed detrimental to economic activity and growth, it readily
follows that policymakers should aim at a low rate of inflation. But how low
should inflation be or should it be zero percent? In other words, at what level
of inflation does the relationship between inflation and growth become
negative? The answer to this question, obviously depends upon the nature
and structure of the economy, and will vary from country to country. Recent
studies specifically test for non-linearity in the relationship between inflation
and economic growth. That is, at lower rates of inflation, the relationship is
insignificant or positive, but at higher levels, inflation has a significantly
negative effect on economic growth.

India has taken some anti-inflationary measure to control inflation.
Afterwards inflation start decreasing and GDP getting its pace. But in 2017
again inflation comes into action and negatively impact GDP growth till 2019.
So, it can be said that a minimal percent of inflation is good for growth and
in case of India inflation rate 3-5 is good for growth.
Anti-inflationary measures
Anti-inflationary measures involve raising key interest rates, sometimes
dramatically, to cut down the money supply. Other anti-inflationary measures
include things like instituting price controls, changing the peg of a currency,
and outlawing inflation.
1) Monetary Measures: - Monetary policy is the policy employed by the
central bank to alter the cost of credit, de-mand for credit and the
availability of credit. A central bank has some instruments of credit
control measures to influence the demand, cost and availability of
credit or the country’s money supply.
a) Bank Rate
b) Open market Operation
c) Variable Cash Reserve Ratio
d) Credit Control Policy
2) Fiscal Measures: - Fiscal policy measures comprise the policy of the
government relating to taxation, expenditure and borrowing. These
three elements of fiscal policy influence aggregate spending.
Contractionary fiscal policy is recommended during inflation. We know
that the bulk of aggregate spending is derived from government
spending. During inflation, government spending may be reduced.

The Stock market refers to the collection of markets and exchanges
where regular activities of buying, selling, and issuance of shares of
publicly-held companies take place. Such financial activities are
conducted through institutionalized formal exchanges. In short Stock
market is market place, where buying and selling of securities are
done.
Stock market shows activity of many large, mid and small companies,
which are registered on stock market. Industries are main pillar of an
economy, so we can deduce that a stock market is an overall picture
of all industries and a good indicator for economic growth. It depicts
the current status of any economy. It somewhere also shows
purchasing power of citizen how efficient companies to higher revenue.
STOCK EXCHANGE
A stock exchange, is a facility where stockbrokers and traders can buy and
sell securities, such as shares of stock, bonds, and other financial
instruments.
In India there are many stock exchanges currently operating.
List of Indian Stock Exchanges
1. Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE)
2. National Stock Exchange (NSE)
3. Calcutta Stock Exchange (CSE)

When we talk of Indian stock exchanges, most of the investing population
have heard of only two stock exchanges in India – Bombay stock exchange
(BSE) and National stock exchange (NSE).
1) Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE): - The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE)
is the first securities market in India and was established in 1875 as
the Native Share and Stock Brokers' Association. Based in Mumbai,
India, the BSE lists close to 6,000 companies and is one of the largest
exchanges in the world. The BSE has helped develop India's capital
markets, including the retail debt market, and has helped grow the
Indian corporate sector. The BSE is Asia's first stock exchange and
also includes an equities trading platform for small-and-medium
enterprises (SME). BSE has diversified into providing other capital
market services including clearing, settlement, and risk management.
2) National Stock Exchange (NSE): - The National Stock Exchange of
India Limited (NSE) is India's largest stock market. Incorporated in
1992, the NSE has developed into a sophisticated, electronic market,
which ranked fourth in the world by equity trading volume. Trading
commenced in 1994 with the launch of the wholesale debt market and
a cash market segment shortly thereafter. The National Stock
Exchange of India Limited was the first exchange in India to provide
modern, fully automated electronic trading. It was set up by a group of
Indian financial institutions with the goal of bringing greater
transparency to the Indian capital market. Today, the National Stock
Exchange of India Limited (NSE) conducts transactions in the
wholesale debt, equity, and derivative markets.

Many more exchanges are working, for simplicity we have taken these
two exchanges and see the relationship between inflation rate and major
indices of these exchanges.
These indices are: -
i) BSE Sensex
ii) Nifty 50
iii) Nifty Bank
iv) BSE FMCG
Observation and Analysis
The observation and analysis have been presented index wise. Therefore,
this section shall briefly detail out first, the methodology behind computation
of the different variables discussed and then about the significance of the
particular value with respect to the parameters set.
23. 23 | P a g e
BSE Sensex: - S&P BSE SENSEX, first compiled in 1986, was calculated
on a 'Market Capitalization-Weighted' methodology of 30 component stocks
representing large, well-established and financially sound companies across
key sectors. The base year of S&P BSE SENSEX was taken as 1978-79.
S&P BSE SENSEX today is widely reported in both domestic and
international markets through print as well as electronic media. It is
scientifically designed and is based on globally accepted construction and
review methodology. Since September 1, 2003, S&P BSE SENSEX is being
calculated on a free-float market capitalization methodology. The 'free-float
market capitalization-weighted' methodology is a widely followed index
construction methodology on which majority of global equity indices are
based.

Inflation has major impact on banking and Finance sector because
govt control inflation with the help of Banking and Financial institution
by controlling monetary measure.
➢ When inflation is below approx. 5 percent then Banking sector
growing rapidly.
➢ When inflation is rising, banking sector negatively impacted than
other.
➢ Inflation has inverse relation with bank nifty.
➢ Low inflation is good for banking growth.
As a result of an increase in the Inflation rate, the interest rates go up, which
results in decrease in the value of bonds, equities and debt. This fall in the
prices of the bonds leads to capital losses for bondholders like banks and
mutual funds. Therefore, rising interest rates usually are negative for banks.

FINAL OBSERVATION AND CONCLUSION
So, on the basis of the result of both the test i.e. Test of Correlation and
Graphical Presentation conducted above, we could make out that- The
correlation coefficient of Inflation with major stock indices is sometimes
positively or sometimes Negative. This show the degree of association
between Inflation and Various Stock Market Indices is very uncertain and
random and hence stock market return cannot be predicted. This shows that
inflation can be used to explain the variation in the movement of the the stock
market and hence Indian Stock Market can be affected by the change in the
inflation rate in Indian economy.
