Motilal Oswal Report

The International Monetary Fund has revised India’s FY21 real gross domestic product forecast from down 5.8% in June 2020 to down 10.3% this month, which is broadly in line with the Reserve Bank of India’s projection of down 9.8% and market consensus’ decline of 9.1%.

Similarly, Q2 FY21 real GDP forecasts have seen sharp cuts – from growth of 1.2% YoY in May 2020 to a decline of 5% in July 2020 and to down 10% in September 2020.

How to read these better-than-expected data and are there some special factors leading to this higher growth? We do believe so.

Favorable base effect, pent-up demand and strong inventory re-building in the hope of a grand festive season have led to the better-than-expected economic growth in August- September 2020.
