8 Circumstance-Specific Assessments Economic Survey In the Survey, we contrasted the prevailing macro-economic indicators with the 2013 near-crisis situation to bring out the achievement of macro-economic improvement. The 2013 near-crisis situation affected five emerging markets (Fragile Five) so a cross-country, across-time comparison was done. In , since inflation had been a challenge, we highlighted what we felt was a possibly structural change in the determinants of inflation: namely rural wage inflation. 8
9 Improving Macroeconomic Stability: Comparing India with Fragile Five The Survey relied on an overall macro-vulnerability index (MVI), combing: Fiscal deficit 2. Current account deficit 3. Inflation. Brazil Indonesia South Africa Turkey India Russia Mean MVI 9
10 Improving Macroeconomic Stability: Comparing India with Fragile Five Brazil India Russia Mean (A Rating) Indonesia China Mean (BBB) Rational investors take into account not just macroeconomic stability but also growth, which crucially determines rewards and returns. The Survey captured this using a rational Investor Ratings Index. 10

15 Circumstance-Specific Assessments Economic Survey and Background development was turmoil in China. So, we asked whether there could be a financial crisis in China. Taxonomy of crises (Module 5) Debate on the fiscal deficit target (module 3 and 4) Demonetization was a key issue (Module 14) 15
16 II. Recent Economic Trends and Future Outlook 16
17 What is the Macro-Assessment Today? Government decided in the budget to reduce the fiscal deficit deficit from 3.5 % of GDP to 3.2 % of GDP RBI s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has very recently taken a decision to keep its monetary policy stance and key policy (repo) rate unchanged. Recent trends in inflation and medium-term outlook Recent trends in output growth and growth outlook 17
18 Real-time macro monitoring Economic policy is a bit like driving a car while only looking at the rearview mirror 17

22 Inflation Outlook: Is Over-Performance Likely to be Durable? External Factors 1. What is the possible impact of US Fed rate hike? 2. What is the possible impact of the exchange rate movement? (appreciation of 1% in the rupee reduces inflation by about 0.1 percentage point) 3. Are oil prices structurally low after the discovery of shale oil? 22
