With Q4FY12 GDP growth rate of 7.8% (lower than the expected 8.2%),
FY11 GDP has grown at 8.5% YoY. We forecast 7.9% GDP growth for
Contribution to GDP growth
FY12 as continuing tightening by RBI will dampen the growth outlook by
100% further slowing down the twin growth engines i.e. consumption and
capex. Even export growth will likely normalize going forward:

No quick respite from Monetary Policy…: We don’t think this data will
deter the RBI from hiking rates as headline inflation remains way above
RBI comfort levels (8.7% in April). An impending Diesel and LPG price
hike will only add to the pressure. This implies that the RBI is further
likely to raise policy rates by 25 bps on June 16th, its next policy
meeting. With RBI possibly following it up with another 25 bps, bank
lending rates will rise further. Coupling this with a contractionary money
supply policy, domestic demand is likely to soften further.

…And contracting Fiscal Policy will also not help: The govt, in FY12, is
attempting the sharpest fiscal correction since 1991. Adjusted for the
one- time spectrum bonanza, FY11 deficit stands at~ 6.2 % (vs. the BE of
5.1 %), which is slated to go down to 4.6 % in FY12. Even if this is
overshot by ~60-80 bps due to oil & fertilizer subsidies, the Fisc will still
contract by ~80 bps in the current Fiscal.

Risks to Our Estimates: Trends in global commodity prices and global risk appetite
hold the key to India’s growth. India will benefit from a fall in commodity prices
(and vice versa) that will reduce inflationary pressures and lead to an end of the
tightening rate cycle. A normal monsoon (both quantum & spread) will be critical
as usual.

Highlights of 2011 growth story:


Three key takeaways for FY11: (1) While private consumption growth stood at
8.6%, public consumption slipped to 4.8% after growing 16% in FY10. (2) Gross
Capital formation growth has inched up at 8.6%. Though there is no major
discernible on-the-ground pick up. (3) GDP by activity was led by agriculture which
grew 6.6% (vs. 0.4% in FY10) and trade, hotels, transport and communication
services up 10.3% (vs. 9.7% ) while manufacturing growth was down to 8.3% (vs.
8.8%) YoY.

…Private capex growth…Key to Watch: The pace of announcement of new


investments has fallen substantially. According to CMIE, new investment
announcements at Rs2.6 trillion in Q4FY11 (vs. Rs 2.9 trillion in Q3 and much
lower than Rs 3.5 trillion in Q2). There has also been a sudden rise in projects
abandoned in Q4FY11. Projects abandoned amounted to Rs 516 bn (vs. an
average ~ Rs250 bn a quarter).

The total new investments announced in 2010-11 were lower than in 2009-10.
This, and the persistence in the fall in quarterly new investment announcements,
indicates a further slowing down unless the global scenario improves or the govt
kick-starts its reform process.

Global macro remains challenging, but domestic reforms hold the key: Debt woes
of Europe are a key challenge and there are also question marks over the
sustenance of growth in the US, Japan and China. All these uncertainties may
further prolong the capex story. However, a turnaround in domestic reforms can be
a big positive trigger.
