Near-term Outlook

Near-term Outlook
The Global Economic Impact Index has shown a slight improvement to 41.6 as of January 31, 2025, suggesting a modest easing of geopolitical challenges affecting India's economy. This development offers some stability for trade activities and may help maintain foreign investor confidence.
Near-term Outlook
The RBI’s recent 25 bps repo rate cut to 6.25% in February 2025 suggests the beginning of a potential easing cycle. Further cuts, perhaps in the range of 50-75 bps, may enhance borrowing, spending, and investment across sectors, potentially maintaining investor optimism despite global uncertainties.
Near-term Outlook
The services sector is expected to continue its robust growth trajectory, driven by digital services and e-commerce expansion. Government initiatives to enhance infrastructure and promote investment are likely to support the sector's growth.
Near-term Outlook
Despite the recent slowdown, industrial production is expected to grow by 6.2% in FY25, indicating a possible recovery in the medium term.
Near-term Outlook
Retail inflation is showing indications of stabilisation, with November data falling to 5.48%. If this decreasing trend continues, it could provide the RBI more freedom to enact additional rate cuts in the near future.
