Winter is coming: On IMF\u2019s warning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Amid India\u2019s slowing growth impulses (impetus)<\/strong>, the International Monetary Fund has warned \u2018the worst is yet to come\u2019 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The International Monetary Fund (IMF), in its latest World Economic Outlook report, has retained global growth hopes for 2022 at 3.2%, and lowered next year\u2019s projection to 2.7% from 2.9%. The year 2023 will feel like a recession for many people in the world, the Fund has cautioned, as \u2018the worst is yet to come\u2019 amid tighter monetary policies to curb (hold or keep within limits) stubbornly (Tenaciously unwilling or marked by tenacious unwillingness to yield) <\/strong>high inflation and a spiralling (to advance or increase steadily; rise) <\/strong>energy and food crisis. While it retained India\u2019s 2023-24 growth estimate at 6.1%, the IMF slashed this year\u2019s forecast to 6.8%, from 7.4% in July. This is the second significant estimate after the World Bank\u2019s 6.5% assessment that pegs (fix (a rate) at a particular level) <\/strong>India\u2019s GDP rise below 7%, which the Reserve Bank of India and North Block mandarins (a person who has a very important job in the government, and who is sometimes considered to be too powerful) <\/strong>are expecting this year. The downgrade is attributed to \u2018weaker than expected outturn\u2019 in the second quarter and subdued (Hold within limits and control) <\/strong>external demand. The slowing growth in tax collections, industrial output and exports, back this prognosis (A prediction about how something (as the weather) will develop)<\/strong>. The road ahead \u2014 rendered tortuous by the lingering (To hang about in a place beyond the proper or usual time) <\/strong>Russia-Ukraine conflict, a slowdown in China and what the IMF has eloquently (In an articulate manner) <\/strong>termed a \u2018cost of living crisis\u2019 \u2014 is not much travelled on. The risk of monetary, fiscal or financial policy miscalibration (To calibrate poorly or wrongly) <\/strong>has risen sharply amid high uncertainty and growing fragilities, the Fund has emphasised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After likely losing the tag to Saudi Arabia this year, the IMF expects India to become the fastest growing major economy in the world again next year. But private forecasters such as Nomura believe policy makers\u2019 optimism about 2023-24 prospects may be misplaced as the global downturns\u2019 ripple effects (The effect of an event setting off other events in an unexpected way, or in unexpected areas)<\/strong> may be underestimated, and growth could well slip to 5.2%. Either way, relative prosperity compared to the world alone will not suffice. India needs to not only grow significantly faster than its faltering (Unsteady in speech or action) <\/strong>pre-pandemic trajectory but also deliver better quality growth that is inclusive and meets the aspirations of millions of its youth who constitute its demographic dividend. The country has only a small window now to cash in on (Take advantage of or capitalize on)<\/strong> this sweet spot. Moreover, given India\u2019s low per capita income, the sustained surge in prices has hit most households\u2019 spending capacity, and could even cramp (Prevent the progress or free movement of) <\/strong>their ability to invest in the next generation\u2019s education. Ministers\u2019 assertions that India had managed to rein in (to limit or control)<\/strong> inflation and it is not a priority concern may have been premature as August and September witnessed a resurgence in price rise from July\u2019s minor relief of 6.71% after staying above 7% in the first quarter. The Government has begun work on Budget 2023-24, but the second half of this year still needs to be navigated deftly (With dexterity; in a dexterous manner)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
