WHY HAVE THE REFORMS BEEN
SO SUCCESSFUL IN INDIA India was already a reasonably mature industrial economy with
a strong tradition of entrepreneurship and all market institutionslargely in place along with a genuine democracy, free press and
impartial judiciary (unlike say in former USSR). Reforms have unleashed the creative energy of the IndianEntrepreneurs.
IT and Telecommunications sectors have seen revolutionarygrowth due to the emergence of several very successfuldomestic entrepreneurs.
Banking sector has improved considerably; international moneytransfers even more so.
Doing business outside of one own city or even country hasbecome easier due to improvements in telecom, banking, IT .

The Inflation Worry
Recently (March 2007
), the inflation has gone up to about7%
which isabove the government and publics comfort level of under 5%. This hastriggered central bank action , raising interest rates on banks short termborrowing from RBI by 1% and the cash reserve ratio (CRR) from 5.5%to 6.5%.
This has created a squeeze on credit growth and raised lending rates byabout 2% to 3%.
However, interest rates are likely to have peaked and may begin to comedown.
Government finances are in good shape thanks to robust revenue growthand revenue deficit has declined from 4% in 2002-03 to 1.5% in 2006-07 while fiscal deficit has declined from 6.7% to 3.5% over same period
The inflation seems to be largely due to excessive demand which should
cool down once additional capacity is put in place.

3. Large Infrastructure investments will be made inIndia over next ten years.
4. Telecom to continue rapid growth for next 2-3 yearsand then could slow down

Possible Future Government Actions
Manufacturing, especially textiles, which is seen to havea huge employment potential could see govt. Action.Already the SEZs have been approved
CRR or interest rate increases could see some role back
as they are affecting constru

Conclusion
Indian Economic fundamentals remain robust. Firms areinvesting at record rates and the growth of companyprofits remains robust.
Given the increase in interest rates due to risinginflation,the economic growth could slow down by about
1% but will still remain above 8% for next year.
Interest rates have peaked and are likely to slowlydecline over next year.
Thus the effect of interest rate increases should runitself out in 6 months to a year.
