India Economic Survey 2017 by Edelman IndiaAklanta Kalita
The Union Finance Minister Shri Arun Jaitley tabled the Economic Survey 2016-17 today, the first day of the Budget Session of the Parliament. The Economic Survey says that the adverse impact of demonetisation on GDP growth will be transitional and the economy will recover with remonetisation. The Survey states that once the cash supply is replenished, which is likely to be achieved by end of March 2017, the economy would revert to normal. The GDP growth in 2017-18, as per the survey, is projected to be in the range of 6¾-7½ percent.
The Survey suggests a few measures to maximise long-term benefits and minimise short-term costs. One, fast remonetisation and early elimination of withdrawal limits. This would reduce GDP growth deceleration and cash hoarding. Two, continued impetus to digitalisation while ensuring that this transition is gradual and inclusive, and appropriately balances the costs and benefits of cash versus digitalisation. Three, following up demonetisation by bringing land and real estate into the GST. Four, reducing tax rates and stamp duties.

The fiscal deficit target of 6.4% provides space to support economic recovery without over-consolidation.

The budget document discusses several key points to watch for in the upcoming Indian budget:
1) The finance minister will have to decide how to accurately present the government's fiscal position given taxes collected through the IGST that do not fully accrue to the central government.
2) The budget will likely show a fiscal deficit of 3.4% of GDP for FY18 instead of the 3.2% target, and peg the FY19 deficit at 3.2% of GDP.
3) Non-tax revenue sources like spectrum sales, RBI dividend, and divestment will be scaled back slightly, but tax collections are expected to improve on economic growth and greater GST compliance.

The interim budget focused on supporting farmers and the middle class. It allocated Rs. 800 billion for income support to small farmers and increased tax exemptions for individuals. However, it revised the fiscal deficit target to 3.4% of GDP for FY2019 and announced new spending programs, which could put pressure on government finances. The markets reacted cautiously to the increased spending proposals in an otherwise populist budget aimed at the upcoming elections.

The document provides an overview of key aspects of the Union Budget 2021, including:
1. Economic indicators such as GDP contraction, inflation rates, growth drivers, monetary policy actions, FDI flows, credit growth, and current account trends.
2. Direct tax proposals including tax exemption for cash allowance in lieu of LTC, taxation of interest on PF contributions over Rs. 250,000, and no tax exemption on ULIPs with premium over Rs. 250,000.
3. Corporate tax rates remaining unchanged with incentives for affordable housing projects and notified rental housing projects.
The interim budget for 2019 had some positives for farmers and the salaried class but also increased concerns about fiscal stability. Key points announced include a Rs. 75,000 crore package for small farmers, full tax rebate for income up to Rs. 500,000, and higher tax deductions. However, the budget revised the fiscal deficit target to 3.4% of GDP and announced new spending measures, which could put pressure on government finances going forward and impact inflation. The markets reacted cautiously to the budget announcements.
The interim budget for 2019-20 proposed several tax benefits for individuals and businesses. However, economists are skeptical about the government's revenue assumptions and achieving the fiscal deficit targets. While the budget aimed to boost incomes ahead of elections, higher spending may not be feasible and cuts could occur later in the year if tax revenues do not increase as projected.
The Finance Minister presented the Union Budget on 1st February 2017. This is our analysis of the implications of the budget on the Indian Economy and the Markets. We have also shared the stocks that will be the Budget Winners & Losers. We hope you enjoy going through our analysis.
The budget document discusses the challenges facing the Indian economy such as slowing global growth, rural distress, and weak private investment. It highlights key figures from the Union Budget for 2016-17, including a fiscal deficit target of 3.5% of GDP. Expenditure is expected to increase 10.8% while receipts will rise 15.5%. Spending will focus on rural development, social sectors, and infrastructure. The budget aims to boost growth while maintaining fiscal discipline.
The budget document provides details on India's fiscal highlights and targets for the coming year, including a GDP growth target of 9% and a fiscal deficit target of 4.6% of GDP. It outlines changes to direct and indirect taxes, including modest increases to income tax exemption limits. Excise duties were increased on some items like iron ore but decreased on others to incentivize sectors like agriculture. Additional services were brought under the service tax net. Allocations were increased for key sectors like infrastructure, social spending, and education, though some allocations like Rs 300 crore for agriculture supply chain management were viewed as too small.
The budget document provides details on key fiscal highlights including a GDP growth target of 9% and a fiscal deficit target of 4.6% of GDP. It outlines plans to lower the corporate tax surcharge and increase exemptions for individual taxpayers, as well as changes to indirect taxes that will make some consumer goods cheaper and some services more expensive. Key areas that are positively impacted include infrastructure, where allocation was increased 23%, and education, where allocation rose 24%. However, some questions remain about whether the targets can be achieved and if enough is being done to support farmers and alleviate rural issues.

Review Note - Union Budget & Investment Strategy - Jul'14jignesh shah
The document provides a summary and analysis of the Union Budget of India for 2014. It discusses the major announcements including a focus on infrastructure growth, fiscal consolidation, and measures to contain inflation. It analyzes the implications for various sectors and provides investment strategies. Execution will be critical to the success of the budget's goals of turning around economic growth, according to the document.
The Union Budget 2018-19 had some excellent measures to ease the lives of the common people with emphasis on the farm sector, education, healthcare and social protection. A pick up in agricultural growth together with adequate price realisation by farmers is required for rural livelihoods to stabilise. Small and medium enterprises received a boost through tax measures as well as access to credit. The introduction of fixed term employment has been a long pending demand from industry. In a difficult year, the Finance Minister has done well to contain the fiscal deficit at 3.5 per cent of GDP, a deviation of 0.3 per cent from the Budget estimate. The plan to move towards fiscal consolidation in the coming year would maintain macro stability and enhance investor confidence.

Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is a vital security measure adopted by financial institutions and payment service providers. Its core purpose is to confirm that the recipient’s name matches the information provided by the sender during a banking transaction, ensuring that funds are transferred to the correct payment account.
Confirmation of Payee was built to tackle the increasing numbers of APP Fraud and in the landscape of UK banking, the spectre of APP fraud looms large. In 2022, over £1.2 billion was stolen by fraudsters through authorised and unauthorised fraud, equivalent to more than £2,300 every minute. This statistic emphasises the urgent need for robust security measures like CoP. While over £1.2 billion was stolen through fraud in 2022, there was an eight per cent reduction compared to 2021 which highlights the positive outcomes obtained from the implementation of Confirmation of Payee. The number of fraud cases across the UK also decreased by four per cent to nearly three million cases during the same period; latest statistics from UK Finance.
In essence, Confirmation of Payee plays a pivotal role in digital banking, guaranteeing the flawless execution of banking transactions. It stands as a guardian against fraud and misallocation, demonstrating the commitment of financial institutions to safeguard their clients’ assets. The next time you engage in a banking transaction, remember the invaluable role of CoP in ensuring the security of your financial interests.

Independent Study - College of Wooster Research (2023-2024) FDI, Culture, Glo...AntoniaOwensDetwiler
"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

Budget Highlights - Fiscal deficit and LTCG has been a disappointment
3
• Fiscal deficit target for FY19 came in slightly
higher than expectations at 3.3% (market
expectation of 3.2%)
• Fiscal deficit for FY18 has been revised to 3.5%
of GDP from 3.2% budgeted earlier, which is in
line with expectations due to lower dividend
from RBI and GST collection.
• As per the fiscal consolidation roadmap, the 3%
target has been postponed by a couple of years
and is now estimated to be achieved in FY21.
Fiscal Deficit (as % of GDP)
• LTCG tax on equities makes a comeback
• 10% tax on Long-term Capital Gains (LTCG) greater than Rs 1 lakh for equities
• and equity-oriented funds. However, grand-fathering clause is helpful
• Dividend distribution tax of 10% introduced for equity oriented funds.
• No impact of LTCG* for insurance product as it is covered under Section 10 (10D) (tax exempt, if cover is more than
10x of premium), However, net impact could be positive as Insurance ULIPs products are more tax efficient than
mutual funds and Equities.

FY 2017-18
• Corporate tax rate is cut to 25% for Small & Medium term enterprises (SMEs) upto 250cr turnover: This is a
positive, as it is an important segment of economy. The lower corporate income tax rate for 99% of the
companies ( filing their returns) will leave them with higher investible surplus which in turn will create more jobs.
• 4% Education & Health Cess to replace 3% Education Cess: Will have marginal impact on corporate and
personal taxes, which is expected to increase govt. revenue by Rs. 11,000 crs.
4
• Ambitious National Health Protection Scheme: To cover 10 crore poor families, and will provide health
coverage of Rs. 5 lakhs per family per year, in case of hospitalization. Heralded by the Finance Minister as
the world’s largest govt. funded healthcare program.
• Changing regulatory landscape in India to permit ‘A’ grade ratings as eligible for investments from the
current ‘AA’ grade ratings

Overall Tax Revenue Assumptions Seem Realistic, even though GST
growth estimates are high

• Personal income tax expected to grow 20% as there was no relief this time
• Corporate tax rate grow at 10% is realistic as Earnings are recovering
• Indirect tax growth seems optimistic at 19.2% in FY19BE versus 8.6% in FY18RE— primarily to large pick-up expected in
GST collections.
GST projected to grow at an optimistic 67.3% in FY19RE, due to widening of tax base, and better tracking of GST collections

8
• The govt. proposes to hike Minimum Support Price (MSP) to 1.5X of the cost of produce, to help aid its vision of doubling
farmer’s income by 2022.
• This could be inflationary in nature and could have ~25 to ~35bps impact on CPI.
• Food subsidy allocation increased by 21% for FY19 (on account for MSP hikes).
• Overall subsidy bill to remain at 1.6% of GDP in FY18RE and FY19BE.

Railways infra capex to grow 22.1% in FY19RE towards strengthening
railway network
Road infra capex to grow 10.3% in FY19BE. A total of 35,000 kms to be
completed under Bharatmala scheme in Phase 1.
Other key major capex changes from :
Defense capex to grow 9%
Communication & Information Technology capex to grow at 35%
Power capex to reduce by 16%, mainly on account of reduction in off
balance sheet capex (ie. PSU led capex)
Rural expenditure under key schemes to increase by 12.2% in
FY19BE
MNREGA (Rural employment guarantee scheme) sees same
budget allocation of Rs. 550 bln in FY19, as last year
For the landmark National Health Protection Scheme a

Divestment revenues will depend on market conditions; telecom revenue
optimistic
10
• Historically, the govt. has mostly underachieved its divestment target. For FY18 the govt. has overachieved its divestment target and expected to raise a
record Rs. 1000 bln in FY18RE. Innovative measures like the ONCG-HPCL deal and Bharat 22 ETF was used in FY18.
For FY19 divestment has been targeted at Rs.800 bln, which will largely depend on market conditions. It doesn’t include the Air India divestment yet,
and govt. also plans to merge 3 general insurance companies, and list them subsequently.
• Dividend income expected to rise marginally in FY19BE after contracting in FY18RE; increased dividend from RBI to be the major contributor.
• Telecom revenue had fallen by 61% in FY18RE, due to lower spectrum auction collections. But for FY19 it is expected to grow a robust 59%, which
seems optimistic.

Budget Outlook & Recap
11
• The budget is expected to increase food inflation (due to MSP hikes), and this may make the RBI cautious.
• Bond yields are pricing most of negatives, with a low possibility of a rate hike in 1HFY19.
• Global bond yields have also hardened substantially over the past month.
• On the positive side, the net market borrowing figure has only risen marginally—broadly in-line with estimates.
• Fiscal deficit slippage may weigh on other rating major’s (like S&P and Fitch) decision to upgrade India’s sovereign rating.
• LTCG may weigh on equity market sentiments for some time. Going forward, the equity markets will soon digest the budget, and move on
to the key factor, i.e. Corporate Earning growth.
• We feel that the worst of the corporate earnings growth is behind us, and expect earnings to pick up in H2FY18 and FY19, with earlier
dragging sectors like pharma, IT and PSU banks contributing to the bounce-back.
• Results so far for Q3 FY18 have been broadly in line with expectations, reaffirming that the earnings trajectory is on a recovery
path.
• The policyholders of life insurance companies will continue to enjoy the same tax regime as earlier, given that Insurance investors
are holding for a minimum of five years and life insurance policies are covered under section 10 (10D) .
