India emerges as 'positive spot' due to policy responses, says ex-CEA

India has emerged as a positive spot in the world economy, due to the well-designed policy responses that were implemented during the COVID crisis, Krishnamurthy Subramanian, Executive Director (India)- International Monetary Fund Designate said on Tuesday. He was addressing All India Services, Central Civil Services, and Military Engineer Services Officers at Dr MCR HRD Institute of Telangana here, an official release said. The former Chief economic Advisor said the policy response of the Centre addressed supply side disruptions, by allowing movement of essential commodities even during the lockdown, as any disruptions in the supply chain would have made it extremely difficult to kick-start the economy, once again. Analysing the COVID policy response, Subramanian said as the Indian economy emerges from the COVID crisis, it is far more resilient than it was at the time of the earlier crisis. India is poised to enter a decade of growth at over seven per cent, which was in line with

IBC is a seminal reform; instrumental in changing feudal mindset: CEA

Terming Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code as a "seminal reform", Chief Economic Adviser KV Subramanian on Friday said it has been instrumental in changing the mindset of promoters of businesses by making them more accountable. Before IBC, he said, there used to be this feudalism, where the corporate debtor took it as the divine right to be in control. "One big change that the IBC has brought is that it has ended feudalism of the promoters in a capitalistic society. There is absolutely no space for feudalism in an economic society which is actually based on freedom," he said at the 5th annual day of the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI). In a democracy or a free society, he said, there is no space for feudalism. Talking about resistance to reforms in a democracy, he said it comes from a vocal minority who have access to corridors of power. In any democracy, when you think about reform, there is always this tussle between two sets of stakeholders, one that is a vocal ...

India's economic growth to start hitting 6.5-7% from FY23 onwards: CEA

The country's economy will start witnessing a growth of 6.5 to 7 per cent from fiscal 2023 onwards, helped by various reforms undertaken by the government so far and also as COVID-19 vaccination drive progresses, Chief Economic Advisor Krishnamurthy Subramanian said. He expects the impact of the second wave not to be very significant. The country's economy contracted by 7.3 per cent in fiscal 2020-21. Together with the reforms and focus on vaccination, I expect growth to start hitting close 6.5 to 7 per cent from FY23 onwards and accelerate from there on, Subramanian said at a virtual event organised by Dun & Bradstreet. Given the significant reforms that have been done over the last one and a half years, I have no hesitation in saying that I look forward to a decade of high growth for India. He said the momentum in recovery that was seen in the fourth quarter of FY21 and overall in the second half of FY21 got impacted to some extent by the second wave of COVID-19. While the ...
